Cube Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC SLX 750 carbon n reflex
E-Bike Fully Mountainbike with damages in paintwork

The secret of a really great bike? It should just get out of the way and let you enjoy the ride. That's why, for the Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC SLX 750, we started by choosing a 150mm Fox 34 Rhythm fork and matching Float DPS Performance shock. Combined with a Newmen Performance wheelset and Schwalbe 2.6in tyres, it's the closest we can get to a magic carpet ride. Bosch's fourth-generation CX drive unit and high-capacity 750Wh battery deliver your power to the trail via Shimano's slick-shifting, legendarily reliable XT 1x12 transmission. And strong, progressive Shimano XT four-piston hydraulic disc brakes with 203mm rotors bring you safely to a stop, on demand. With a remote dropper post included in the mix, you simply need to add your spirit of adventure.

Frame and equipment

Evolution never stops. That's why, across all frames in our SizeSplit system, the Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC now features the ability to house up to a 750Wh battery under its dust- and splash-proof cover. It means you can power the fourth-generation Bosch CX drive unit – with 85Nm of hill-devouring torque – on long rides, whatever frame size fits you best. The Boost 148 rear axle, large pivot bearings and All Mountain Geometry deliver assured handling, even when you're exploring the limits of the 140mm rear and 150mm front travel. Sram's UDH gear hanger helps protect against crash damage and is easily replaceable. And Integrated Cable Routing reduces maintenance and complements the clean lines of the full carbon main frame.

Bosch Smart System

The smart system leads you into the digital e-bike future. The eBike Flow app, the battery, the display, the control unit and the drive unit are fully networked in the smart system. Regular over-the-air updates keep them up to date and add new functions. You can control all functions of the smart system via the eBike Flow app. Whether on the way to work or on the trail at the weekend: The technically and visually precisely coordinated components allow you to individualise your riding experience and take riding fun to the next level.

For whom is the Cube Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC SLX 750 suitable?

For athletes and enthusiasts. Many professionals now use bikes from this category for training purposes. The reason is obvious: The bike takes the rider up the mountain with a lot of power and down the trail with top components. But these bikes don't weigh as much as they did a few years ago. The perfectly integrated batteries hide the power at first sight. Top quality sports equipment with serious ambitions for all riders who see support as an opportunity rather than a flaw.

The advantages of 27.5 inch tires

27.5 inch wheels are the logical addition to the large 29 inch wheels and the optimum compromise for all smaller riders and trail fanatics. The combination of smoothness and manoeuvrability meets every wish of a biker. More agile than the 29 inch wheels and therefore the optimal choice for off-road driving and hairpin bends that leave you with little reaction time. This category offers the best choice especially for those changing from 26 inch wheels. 27.5 inch combines the best of two worlds and creates bikes that are not restricted in their use. Whether Fully or Hardtail - 27.5 inch is the golden mean and the perfect tyre size for all who want to use their mountain bike according to its purpose.

The advantages of 29 inch tires

29 inch is THE trend of the last few years, which was able to assert itself completely. Initially viewed critically by mountain bike purists and equipped with some teething troubles, the bike industry has recognized the trend and made it the new standard through continuous improvements. The advantage of the 29" tyres is the enormous running smoothness, which brings great advantages and saves power on long tours as well as uphill and downhill. Obstacles are easier to overcome due to the larger circumference of the wheels, and a greater distance is covered by turning the bottom bracket. By improvements and adjustments in the frame construction and the component selection, initial problems with the agility in the Trail and the optics of smaller frames were optimally balanced. Whether fully or hardtail, a 29 will take you far away.
