Summary
The Cube Supreme Sport Hybrid ONE 400 is a versatile and user-friendly e-bike designed for city commuting and neighborhood rides. As we explore this e-bike in the scenic Rocky Point in Port Moody, British Columbia, we discover its many features that make it a worthy investment at $3,500 USD. Available in four frame sizes, this e-bike is equipped with a Bosch Performance Line Cruise motor, offering higher torque compared to Bosch’s Active Line. This additional power is particularly useful for riders who need to carry extra weight, such as panniers or child seats.
The “400” in the name refers to its 400Wh battery, which provides ample power for daily rides. The frame, in a sleek grayish-blue color, is both stylish and practical, reflecting Cube’s German engineering heritage since 1993. The bike’s adjustable angle stem, hydraulic disc brakes, and mid-rise swept-back handlebars ensure a comfortable and customizable ride experience. The ergonomic grips and adjustable reach on the brake levers accommodate different hand sizes, enhancing overall comfort.
The Cube Supreme Sport Hybrid ONE 400 boasts 180mm rotors on its hydraulic disc brakes, which offer superior stopping power, especially for a bike with larger 28-inch wheels. The Continental Contact Urban tires, rated for e-bike use, feature reflective sidewalls for added visibility and safety. The tires’ higher volume and 28-inch diameter contribute to a smoother ride, effortlessly handling cracks and bumps on the road.
This e-bike is designed for practicality and comfort, featuring a suspension fork that can be adjusted to suit the rider’s weight. The bike’s weight distribution is well-balanced, thanks to the placement of the battery and motor. The saddle, though a bit firm, can be easily swapped out for a more cushioned option if desired. Unfortunately, the lack of bottle cage mounts might be a minor inconvenience, but this can be remedied with handlebar-mounted cup holders or trunk bags with bottle holders.
The rear rack, though stylish, is rated to carry only 18kg, which may limit its use for heavier loads. However, it does come with a spring latch and is compatible with standard panniers. The integrated lighting system, featuring a bright rear light and a front headlight with side windows, ensures visibility from multiple angles, enhancing safety during rides.
Underneath the sleek design, the Cube Supreme Sport Hybrid ONE 400 is powered by a Bosch Performance Line Cruise motor, offering up to 65Nm of torque and support for higher pedal cadences. The motor’s shift detection feature helps preserve the drivetrain by easing off power during gear changes. The bike also features a Bosch Purion display, which provides essential ride information such as speed, trip distance, and range estimates based on the current level of assist.
Despite some minor drawbacks, like the absence of a bottle cage and the lower capacity rear rack, the Cube Supreme Sport Hybrid ONE 400 stands out for its performance, comfort, and practicality. It’s an excellent choice for urban commuters and casual riders looking for a reliable and well-designed e-bike.
