The Kathmandu Hybrid Deluxe EXC from CUBE is the answer to a simple question: how could we make a bike as easy as possible to live with? The sturdy Integrated Carrier 3.0, full set of practical accessories and rugged, elegant frame are just the start. There's an 800Wh battery and powerful Bosch CX drive, plus Kiox 500 display... and we coupled it to automatic hub gears with a quiet and clean belt drive, so all you need to do is turn the pedals. Then we added an anti-lock brake system to the powerful Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, for safe stopping in any conditions. And a comfortable RockShox air suspension fork, for a smoother ride. Because sometimes the simplest solutions are the best.
Frame description
The CUBE Kathmandu Hybrid's design is classically elegant – familiar, even – but it's stuffed full of innovation and clever touches. The neatly housed Bosch CX drive and 800Wh PowerTube battery are just the start. Efficient Comfort Geometry is designed around a 100mm travel suspension fork, for better control even when the going gets rough. Internal Cable Routing complements the frame's clean lines, while a UDH dropout is tough, versatile and future-proof. And, of course, there's an integrated chain guard mount and our rugged, sturdy and exceptionally neat Integrated Carrier 3.0, so you can carry everything you need for your adventures.
