Cube Touring Hybrid Pro 500 metallicgrey´n´black

The "Touring Hybrid Pro 500 metallic grey and black" model from Cube, released in 2022, is a versatile e-bike that stands out thanks to its high-quality components and well-thought-out design. Priced at 2749 EUR, this model offers a balanced combination of performance and comfort.

The bike’s frame is made from Superlite aluminium and utilises Gravity Casting Technology. This construction ensures high stability and low weight. The Efficient Comfort Geometry ensures that the rider remains comfortable even on longer rides. The frame also features a tapered head tube and a fully integrated battery, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but also offers optimum protection. The integrated Luggage Rack 2.0 allows bags and other luggage to be easily attached.

Reliable braking performance is provided by Shimano BR-MT200 hydraulic disc brakes with 180 mm brake discs at the front and rear. The drivetrain consists of an 11-speed Shimano Deore RD-M5100-SGS, operated via the Shimano Deore SL-M5100 Rapidfire-Plus shift lever. This enables precise and rapid gear changes.

The SR Suntour NVX30 Coil fork, with 100 mm of travel, offers sufficient suspension to comfortably handle bumps on the road or off-road. Safety on the road is ensured by the CUBE Shiny 50 Lux front light and the ACID Mudguard Rear Light PRO-E, both of which are powered by 12V DC.

The bike is fitted with ACID PP trekking pedals, which ensure a secure grip. Power is transmitted via an ACID E-Crank crankset with 40 teeth and a length of 175 mm (EE: 170 mm), combined with a Shimano Deore CS-M5100 cassette with an 11–51T range and a KMC X11 chain.

The handlebars – a 700 mm-wide CUBE Comfort Trail Bar – and the Natural Fit Comfort grips provide a comfortable grip. The CUBE Comfort Stem Pro is adjustable to allow for an optimal riding position. The headset comprises ACROS AZF-1039 components at the front and ACROS AZX-1041 BlockLock 135° at the rear.

The CUBE EX23 rims are tubeless-ready and fitted with Schwalbe Big Ben Performance tyres in size 55-622. The hubs are from Shimano (front: HB-TX505, rear: FH-TX505) and are fitted with quick-release skewers and CentreLock brake disc mounts.

The Natural Fit Sequence Comfort saddle, combined with the CUBE Suspension Seatpost HD (30.9 mm), ensures additional comfort. The saddle is secured using a CUBE Varioclose clamp (34.9 mm). The bike is also fitted with ACID 65 BB-Mount mudguards, a CUBEstand Cmpt kickstand and the CUBE Integrated Carrier 2.0 luggage rack, which is compatible with ACID RILink adaptors and SnapIt systems.

Power is provided by the Bosch Drive Unit Performance Generation 3 motor, delivering 65 Nm of torque and 250 watts of power. The Bosch PowerTube 500 battery ensures a sufficient range, whilst the Bosch Intuvia display allows for easy operation and provides an overview of all key riding data. The battery is charged using the Bosch 2A charger.

This e-bike model therefore offers excellent features for comfortable and safe rides, both in urban areas and on longer tours.
