The verdict

+Strengths
  • One of the lightest on the market (E-MOUNTAINBIKE Magazine 2015)
  • Bosch Performance CX Gen4's 85Nm torque makes the Cube Elite Hybrid feel torquey on steep approaches (opticycles.com)
Weaknesses
  • Not recommended for aggressive terrain due to small-volume tyres, lack of dropper post, and absence of rear suspension (E-MOUNTAINBIKE Magazine)
