Gearing

A bike with lower gearing will be easier to ride up steep hills, while a higher top end means it will pedal faster down hills.

CUBE Kathmandu Hybrid Pro 625 Review

Jul 2020

Price: $3999.00 | Model Year: 2020 | A high-quality ebike platform capable of long distances and steep climbs. Available in five frame sizes and three frame styles including step-thru, mid-step, and high-step. Only available in one color, but all accessories have matching accents (frame, fork, stem, handlebar, and saddle).

Observations
  • A high-quality ebike platform capable of long distances and steep climbs. Available in five frame sizes and three frame styles including step-thru, mid-step, and high-step. Only available in one color, but all accessories have matching accents (frame, fork, stem, handlebar, and saddle).

  • Reliable extra-large Bosch PowerTube 625 battery pack provides excellent range and is completely hidden inside the downtube. Premium integrated lights run off of the rechargeable ebike battery and are well positioned for protection and visibility; the headlight has side windows and the tires have reflective paint to keep you seen.

  • Comfortable memory foam saddle, locking ergonomic grips, adjustable-angle stem, suspension fork and suspension seatpost. Excellent rear rack should work with a trunk bag, panniers, or child seat. Included fenders and chain cover are effective, sturdy, and quiet when riding off road. Quick release wheels for easy fixes, puncture resistant Schwalbe Tires reduce flats.

  • Comes with the slower Bosch compact 2 amp ebike battery charger vs. 4 amp. Battery cover does not lock to frame, removing and replacing battery requires the key. This ebike is fairly heavy for a hardtail because of the high capacity battery and integrated rear rack. Fairly basic coil suspension fork with preload adjust only.

Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Exc 625

Jun 2020

The Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Exc 625 really is an excellent workhorse of an e-bike, and is specced up to the nines with the latest Bosch Performance Line CX motor, a wide range of gears and sturdy panniers for your luggage. With a heavy focus on the performance-orientated features to give you the most bang for your buck, it's also very good value for money.
