Comments
Cube's long tail electric bike can be used to carry a versatile load up to 60kg on its rear rack, and its mid-drive Bosch motor can take that weight up hills with ease. It provides a high level of comfort when riding over speed humps and other imperfect conditions, and its hydraulic disc brakes can bring it to a stop effortlessly. A lockable compartment along the down tube allows for small items to be stowed securely during a ride.
