Verdict: Great value all round trail bike with commuting potential
Jul 2020 · Tom Marvin
Fast reactions to pedal inputs help on climbs, but the stiff chassis affects descending capability
Instant acceleration
Impressive spec, with well-chosen components across the board
Harsh ride chokes descending speed and rough-trail acceleration
Tyres are thin and need higher pressures to prevent punctures, adding to the uncompromising ride feel

Price: $3399.00 | Model Year: 2018 Hardtail electric cross country mountain bike with nimble 2.6
Hardtail electric cross country mountain bike with nimble 2.6" plus sized tires, Boost hub spacing and a sturdy 15mm thru-axle on the front wheel, upgraded Alex rims with reinforcement eyelets
Only available in high-step, but the frame comes in six sizes and the smaller two offer 27.5" wheel size vs. 29" on the larger four, this scales the bikes appropriately, adds comfort, and optimizes rolling momentum
Beautiful motor and battery integration, the Bosch Performance Line CX is tipped up with two thin plastic skid plates and the PowerPack 500 is sunk into the downtube for optimal weight distribution
Compact Purion display panel isn't removable, doesn't swivel easily, and the buttons can be inconsistent, the centerdrive motor uses a 2.5x reduction gearing system which introduces some drag when pedaling unassisted or over 32km/h (20mph)

Ugly e-bikes don't cut the mustard any more! As the sophistication of battery and motor technology improves, the next frontier for e-MTBs is to make sure they look good too. Cube are on the money with their new Reaction Hybrid 500 SL, an 'entry level' e-MTB with clean, sleek lines.
Great looks.
Excellent Bosch motor/battery.
E-MTB mode simplifies the ride.
No dropper post.
Tyres aren't tubeless ready.
