Welcome to the new benchmark in eMTB - the 2027 Orbea WILD LT has officially raised the bar for DJI Avinox powered bikes and at E-Bikeshop we couldn't be more excited to share the exclusive details with you. For the upcoming season, the legendary Orbea Wild isn't just getting an update; it's evolving into two distinct, purpose-built beasts: the gravity-crushing Wild LT and the trail-taming Wild TR. Whether you're seeking downhill race-level capability or looking to maximise your everyday trail riding, Orbea has designed a version of the Wild that is engineered to be the very best in its class. Because whatever question the trail poses, the answer is always yes. Part 1: The Orbea Wild LT (Gravity & Enduro) For riders looking for uncompromising downhill performance fused with the relentless capability of a full-power e-MTB, the Wild LT is the ultimate answer. Boasting up to 170/180mm of gravity-oriented kinematics, the Wild LT is effectively the e-bike equivalent of Orbea’s World Cup-proven Rallon. Light on Weight, Not on Performance Low, stable, and fast. If the new Wild looks like it's come straight from the race track, it's because it has. Orbea asked themselves how to improve a legend, and their answer was to refine it on the racetrack, focusing on performance in every single detail. The new 2027 Orbea Wild is the ultimate in performance, both uphill and downhill; it isn’t just an evolution, it’s a massive step forward. By keeping the weight incredibly low and central, the bike remains remarkably calm as speed. This philosophy is backed by an arsenal of downhill-developed geometry and kinematics: Gravity Kinematics: Riders can choose between 170/170mm or a massive 170/180mm of travel. The leverage ratio is designed to be highly progressive but predictable, resulting in lower pedal kickback and a significantly more active suspension feel. Race-Ready Geometry: Built around premium OMR Carbon or High Polish Alloy, the Wild features a low standover height and short 155mm cranks to maximise clearance. Steep 'n' Deep: Lower saddles mean faster bikes. The frame is optimised to allow for incredibly long dropper posts across all sizes. Total Adjustability: Riders can fine-tune their ride via a High/Low flip chip and an advanced ZS56 headset standard that allows for precise angle or reach adjustments. Incredible Weight: Despite being a full-power, gravity-ready machine, the Wild LT tips the scales at below 21kg. Choose Your Stance: The frame accommodates either a full 29" setup* or a mixed-wheel "Mullet" configuration. (*E-Bikeshop will be stocking the LT in Mullet only because for the last two model years, this is where over 80% of our demand has been. The 29/29 configuration will be available from us but with a short lead time from the factory). Endless Power, Superior Control While others settle for raw, unmanageable power, Orbea's proprietary RS Tune prioritises control and traction, delivering a deeply enhanced riding experience. The RS motor tune meticulously optimises power delivery for better grip and 4x faster responses to your input than other Avinox equipped bikes, creating a more direct feel on the trail. Driven by the RS Control System and RS Power, Orbea has completely redefined eMTB riding dynamics. The Powerhouse: The Avinox M2S motor pushes a continuous 750W and 130Nm of torque. Superboost: Need to clear an impossible technical feature? A legislative Superboost option unlocks up to 1300W and 150Nm of torque for a pre-set time of up to 60 seconds. Big Range, Fast Charging: Riders have the choice of massive 600Wh or 800Wh batteries, paired with either a 4A or a rapid 12A charger. Climbing Dominance: This tuned output creates best-in-class climbing performance by perfectly balancing reactivity and traction, while simultaneously minimising wear on components. Why Did Orbea Choose Avinox? To build the best bike, you need the best canvas. Integrating the DJI Avinox motor was a highly strategic decision by Orbea's engineers, built on four pillars of performance: Suspension Optimisation: The size of the Avinox motor lets Orbea position the suspension pivots in the optimal position, allowing Orbea to bring the Rallon suspension performance to new Wild LT. Center of Gravity: The motor and battery package has allowed them to lower the center of gravity and standover height. The result is improved handling and more space to move over the bike. Firmware Freedom: Having access to the motor firmware gives Orbea greater freedom to create a riding experience that is uniquely Orbea, where the motor reacts faster and becomes an extension of the rider. The RS Control System: Having access to the proprietary firmware allowed them to add the RS Control System, removing distractions, adding functionality and ultimately increasing the connection between the rider and the ride - this is exclusive to the Wild LT and not available from any other manufacturer. The RS Tune: A Deeper Dive What exactly makes the RS Tune so revolutionary? It comes down to Orbea rethinking how an eMTB should apply power to the dirt. Reactivity is Key: With standard motors, response can feel delayed. Orbea has significantly improved this with the RS Tuned versions of the Avonix motor, delivering a 4x faster (than other Avinox equipped bikes), more precise reaction for technical riding. Support arrives exactly when needed, making control easier and movements like lifting the front wheel more natural. High Torque, Controlled Power: It's torque that's important for getting up steep or technical climbs but without control, its useless. High Torque with controlled power allows better performance on technical climbs without excessive battery use. The Triple Benefit: Controlling maximum power does three things: it improves traction and improves range, lets them make the motor more reactive, and limits drivetrain wear. The RS Quick Look: Unique: Orbea is the only brand who are tuning the motor. Proprietary: Users can’t access these characteristics. Relevant: There are real performance improvements, and ride experience enhancements with this tune. RS is Key for the Wild Everything culminates in the RS Ecosystem. Because the Wild LT features the only tuned Avinox motor on the market, riders get improved technical climbing, better battery life and longer component life. This ecosystem includes the heavily praised RS HMI controller and the smart MC10-RS seatpost, which together bring entirely new functionality to e-bike riding. Combine this intelligent electronic integration with the countless DH trophy winning handling of the Orbea Rallon—including a low frame and active suspension kinematics—and from design concept to bike, the result is simple: the best handling enduro focused eMTB on the market. Period. The Ultimate eMTB Showdown: Wild LT vs The Competition When you stack the Orbea Wild LT against the heaviest hitters in the industry, the data speaks for itself. As seen in the benchmark data, the Wild LT pulls ahead in almost every measurable category: Motor Integration: While bikes like the Santa Cruz Bullit rely on the standard Bosch CX, the Wild LT uses the cutting-edge Avinox M2S. Proprietary Tech: Against competitors like the YT Decoy X, Amflow PR Carbon Pro, and Pivot Shuttle AMP'd, the Wild LT is the only bike offering a proprietary motor tune and a smart dropper system. Customisation: None of the competitors listed offer the ability to configure components or custom-select paint colours. The Wild LT allows total configuration. Geometry & Capability: The Wild is DH Proven, offers adjustable geometry, fits long droppers, and hits the scales at a highly competitive weight starting around 20kg. Part 2: Under embargo.. We'll update this section on 25th ;) Part 3: Shared DNA – "Built for Abuse" Whether you choose the LT or the TR, both platforms share Orbea’s obsessive approach to chassis design and durability. Ride after ride after ride, enjoy a quiet, reliable bike with gravity-ready components and durable design throughout. Suspension: The LT is spec'd with the burly Fox 38 fork, while the TR utilizes the Fox 36.+ Protection: The frames feature an upgraded frame protector and integral elements like the "Second Skin" wrap to defend against rock strikes. Wheels & Tyres: You'll find OQUO MC32 Power wheels wrapped in Maxxis EXO+ and DoubleDown (DD) tyres, or Schwalbe's Gravity casings for maximum puncture resistance. Bearings: Both frames feature fully sealed bearings for maximum longevity. Part 4: The Orbea MyO Platform – Make it Yours We saved the best for last. One of the main reasons the Orbea Wild is the premium choice on the market is the Orbea MyO platform. While other premium brands restrict you to one or two factory colours, the MyO platform allows you to custom paint your Wild for absolutely free. Want a stealthy matte finish? Done. A vibrant, dual-tone gloss? Easy. You design it online, and Orbea's artisans paint it by hand in their factory in Spain. But it doesn't stop at paint. MyO lets you take advantage of cut-price component upgrades straight from the factory. You can swap out your tyres, upgrade your suspension setup, choose your preferred brakes, or tweak your ergonomics before the bike even leaves the assembly line. Because these bikes are built entirely to your exact specifications, it normally takes around 6-8 weeks from order to delivery. The result, however, is a totally unique, perfectly dialed, one-of-a-kind eMTB that is 100% yours - you can even have your name painted into the frame! The 2026 Lineup Orbea is offering a massive range of builds to suit every rider and budget: Wild LT: Available in M-Ltd RS, M-Team RS, M10, M20, H-Team, H10, and H20 models. Wild TR: Available in M-Team, M10, M20, H10, and H20 models.* (*E-Bikeshop will only be stocking the new Wild LT M-Ltd, M-Team, M10, M20 and H20 with the new DJI Avonix motor for the 2027 model year. While the TR is an equally fantastic bike and we'll be very happy to special order TR models for our customers, we feel that those who would want a TR would likely have already bought a 2026 model year Wild ST, which was next to identical). 2027 Orbea Wild LT M-Ltd The 2027 Orbea Wild LT M-Ltd RS is the pinnacle of full-power gravity eMTBs. Built around a premium OMR Carbon frame, it pairs downhill-proven geometry with the revolutionary DJI Avinox M2S motor.

"What took you so long?!" This was the first question a long term customer asked me, having been asking me on and off for a year about DJI Avinox powered bikes since they were very first touted back in early 2024. While in for a service booking last week I broke the news to him that I had just signed the contract. He's wanted one for ages, but he would only buy it from us and he couldn't be happier that his new bike is now just days away. The answer isn't straightforward, but is great news for electric mountain bikers all over the UK. You can use the links below to jump to the most interesting sections; - Why were E-Bikeshop not first in the queue for the new Amflow bikes?- Who makes Amflow bikes and how are DJI involved?- What is the DJI Avinox drive system and how are Amflow bikes different from everything else on the market?- What are the standout features of the DJI Amflow electric bikes?- How are DJI providing Amflow aftersales support to UK owners?- How will E-Bikeshop be supporting its DJI Amflow electric bike owners?- What bikes are in the Amflow range?- What are E-Bikeshop's expectations of the Amflow electric bikes?- Why purchase your Amflow PL Carbon or Carbon Pro from E-Bikeshop?- Can I buy an Amflow bike on Finance or with the Cycle to Work scheme?- Watch the DJI x Amflow electric bikes launch video Why were E-Bikeshop not first in the queue for the new Amflow bikes? Very simple and quite common answer here - it was all about reliability of support. Any brand new product is a risk and especially for us, because E-Bikeshop ships bikes all over the world. We have to be able to see a clear and well considered support path for our customers with a minimum level of guaranteed parts and spares available to us either for our own stock, or in less than 48 hours. This is the minimum necessary level of support we need from our manufacturers to uphold the promises we make our customers when choosing whether or not we work with a brand. Anyone who has set up as business, big or small, knows it's not easy. Its expected that any new brand coming to the UK will experience teething problems, set-backs and logistical issues amongst others when getting through their first year and no-one can knock a company for this. If you want to be at the front of the queue, you have to accept the difficulties this comes with. At E-Bikeshop, we prefer to wait until a manufacturer has a stable base in the UK, with a good stock holding of parts and spares and if possible, a UK based support system/team. With this, we can meet our service promise to our customers. Over the last 12 years selling just electric bikes, we've made a name for ourselves as the bar setters for support, whether a bike is 5 minutes, counties or countries away. Having previously turned down DJI twice in the last 12 months, we're very pleased to say that having spent several hours easily batting off my questions, objections and reservations, DJI demonstrated a rock-solid commitment to customer experience that bears direct synergy with our own and we're very pleased to offer their bikes to our customers for the coming model year. In hindsight and from speaking to others in the industry, we know we've missed out on a lot of sales because the Amflow bikes have been incredibly successful for those who did take the early plunge but both E-Bikeshop and DJI, right now, are in the best position to offer the very best DJI Amflow ownership experience. Who makes Amflow bikes and how are DJI involved? Amflow is a comparatively new electric mountain bike brand created by DJI, a world leader in drones and camera technology. The Amflow brand was officially unveiled in 2024, marking DJI’s ambitious entry into the e-bike market at an arguably difficult time for the industry. This very bold move reflects DJI’s broader strategy to diversify into high-tech mobility and outdoor adventure sectors. Amflow launched its first bike, the PL Carbon, at Eurobike 2024, drawing attention and snatching the Design & Innovation Award 2025 for its innovative integration of DJI’s engineering expertise. While DJI is new to the bike world, the Amflow project benefits from almost 20 years of experience in compact motors, sensors, and intelligent systems. With this new brand, DJI aims to challenge established e-MTB manufacturers and redefine how performance, design, and smart technology come together in high-end electric bikes. What is the DJI Avinox drive system and how are Amflow bikes different from everything else on the market? Outright power The DJI Avinox motor redefines what’s possible in e-MTB performance. Delivering up to 1,000 W peak power and 120 Nm of torque, it combines explosive acceleration with ultra-smooth, natural pedal assist. Weighing just 2.52 kg, it's one of the lightest full-power systems available. Intelligent features like Auto Hold, Hill Start Assist, and app-based tuning give you total control. Paired with fast charging and sleek integration, Avinox brings DJI’s innovation to every ride. With most drive unit manufacturers sitting at around 85-90Nm, this level of power has driven an almost cult following in just 1 year of being on sale and was one of the motivators for stocking it. It offers a level of power that even Bosch, with their latest 100Nm Gen 5 update, still can't touch... Power to weight ratio. In the real world DJI Amflow bikes weigh in at as little as 19kg, offering the highest power to weight ratio of any UK legal electric bike on the market right now making it not just the most powerful but the quickest and this is what really matters on the trails. How fast can you get off the line? How quickly can you pick up speed before a jump? Before the DJI Amflow, the highest power to weight ratio crown was worn by the Orbea Rise M-Ltd. At 16KG and with 85Nm it offers 5.31Nm per KG. By comparison, the next most common lightweight trail bike sold in the UK is the Specialized Levo SL, offering a pretty abysmal 2.7Nm per KG. The DJI Avinox offers an arm stretching 6.25Nm per KG, a whopping 46% higher than the previously most powerful legal bike sold in the UK, which was the Haibike FLYON. The FLYON range also offered 120Nm, and developed a cult following of riders who wanted the higher levels of power legally available to them, but the Amflow goes one step further by coming in at a bonkers 10KG lighter! What are the standout features of the DJI Amflow electric bikes? Motor power aside, the DJI Avinox powered Amflow electric bikes stand on their own two feet as a forward thinking, legitimate bike brand and not just a vessel for the motor everyone wants! Frame The cutting-edge light weight carbon frame uses an advanced four-bar suspension linkage design, making great use of a custom tuned Fox rear shock for agile and responsive handling and weighs just a little over 2kg! Both bikes incorporate a flip-chip, allowing owners to switch between 29" and mullet set up with ease. Every detail—from internal cable routing to battery access—has been engineered for balance, agility, and simplicity Battery and charging Available with either a 600Wh or 800Wh battery, the DJI Amflow bikes come with a super-fast, lightweight charger, capable of a 0-75% charge in as little as 1.5 hours and keeping you on the trail for longer. This is faster than any bike we've ever stocked! Display and Connectivity The 2" OLED touchscreen display offers real-time riding data as well as access to all of the settings. It also offers access to the Avinox App, which owners can use to "lock" their bike as well as receive movement alerts in the event of an attempted theft. Intelligent Hill-Hold and Walk Assist. The Avinox drive system includes Walk Assist, letting you push the bike uphill smoothly, and an Auto Hold feature that prevents rollback on slopes. It also offers Hill Start Assist to give a torque boost when starting on an incline—ideal for steep terrain handling. How are DJI providing Amflow aftersales support to UK owners? The DJI Amflow bikes are being distributed through their already established DJI products network in the UK. Not only does this mean they already have warehouse space for the bikes and spares, but they're also available quickly, which is the most important thing for us. This commitment by DJI to supporting the UK market with its own dedicated support is one of the major factors in our decision to sign with them. How will E-Bikeshop be supporting its DJI Amflow electric bike owners? Business as usual! E-Bikeshop has always been committed to holding stock of the most commonly required parts and spares in direct stock for the bikes we sell and our bike customers will still be able to book into our workshop where our industry leading technicians will have your bike serviced or repaired and back to you on a "while you wait" basis in almost all cases. Where there are any dips in supply of components, as with other brands, they'll become "restricted parts" on our website, and only available to customers who've purchased a bike directly from us so that we can safeguard the speed of support for those who invest in a new DJI Amflow bike. Physical support aside, you can still contact our team of genuine ebike experts during business hours via email, phone, Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp and they're always happy to help with any query you have about your bike. What bikes are in the Amflow range? There are just two electric bikes in the Amflow range, the Amflow PL Carbon and the Amflow PL Carbon Pro. Amflow PL Carbon Designed for riders who want full-power performance in a lightweight, responsive package, the Amflow PL Carbon combines a premium full-carbon frame with DJI’s innovative Avinox drive system. The result is a ride that feels agile, powerful, and planted—whether you're climbing steep switchbacks or carving fast descents. Clean integration, sleek lines, and intuitive controls make every ride seamless and exciting. With smart features like walk assist, auto hold, and app connectivity, the PL Carbon delivers more than just muscle—it offers a smarter, more enjoyable ride experience. For trail riders who demand innovation without the premium price tag of the Pro model, the Amflow PL Carbon hits the perfect balance of performance and value. You can view the bike, a full write-up, specification and geometry charts on the 2025 DJI Amflow PL Carbon 800 product page.

What's more exciting than new 2025 bikes? That's right... New Orbea bikes! Specifically, the new 2025 Orbea Denna range of electric gravel/adventure bikes. I've just come back from riding the lovely "Escape Green" 2025 Denna M30 which Orbea gave us to test prior to launch and it absolutely flies. I've ridden the last 5 generations of Orbea Gain, including the D30 1X gravel variant and this is nothing like them. Its quicker, more comfortable, more compliant and everything about it just makes sense. Orbea says - "Take all your preconceived limits and throw them away. Denna opens the doors to adventure and new ways to enjoy your rides". What is 2025 Orbea Denna? The 2025 Orbea Denna models are a brand new range of electric gravel and adventure bikes designed around "removing limits". The Orbea Denna was designed for riders seeking support across mixed terrains, offering the perfect balance of performance, comfort, and versatility. It’s built for gravel enthusiasts, bike-packers, and long-distance explorers who demand efficient power, traction, and stability on challenging routes. With its lightweight carbon frame, gravel-tuned motor assistance, and wide tyre clearance, the Denna excels in diverse conditions, making it ideal for those who crave extended rides, rugged trails, and seamless off-road experiences. The Shimano EP600 and EP801 RS (model dependent) 85Nm motors, paired with a 420Wh battery, are specifically tuned for gravel riding, offering smooth, powerful assistance, excellent traction, and extended range on rugged terrains. Who was the 2025 Orbea Denna designed for? Opening up drop bar bikes to way more than just local canal paths and paved roads, the gravel-focused motor provides ample power for tough ascents, excellent traction on loose ground, and extended range for long-distance rides. The 2025 Orbea Denna is designed for riders who seek "joyful adventure" on gravel and off-road terrain, combining performance and comfort for exploring new routes. Whether you're a gravel enthusiast, bike-packer, or long-distance explorer, the Denna provides the ideal blend of power, stability, and versatility. With its gravel-tuned motor, wide tyre clearance, and lightweight carbon frame, it's built for those who want to tackle challenging landscapes, explore remote trails, and embark on extended off-road journeys with ease. The 2025 Orbea Denna then, is a bike for adventurers. Where does the 2025 Orbea Denna excel? The 2025 Orbea Denna range really comes into its own on more challenging off-road riding where any ordinary gravel bike would start to show its limitations. Tough, loose ascents, root-riddled and stony climbs and long distance exploring are where the 2025 Orbea Denna really excels, offering a big boost over a normal gravel bike. The Shimano EP801 motor provides smooth, controlled power, making steep climbs and long distances more manageable. The Denna thrives in varied conditions, from forest paths to open countryside and even light single-track. With the range extender option, you can explore further without worrying about battery life. Perfect for long-distance explorers, weekend adventurers, and those looking to push beyond paved roads, the Orbea Denna is your ideal companion for unforgettable journeys and very much a "one bike does it all" solution for explorers. 2025 Orbea Denna technology Not content with just re-hashing a road bike to make their new adventure machine, the new 2025 Orbea Denna was designed with a brand new concept. "Joyful Adventure" is the starting point for the new Denna, and every aspect of the bike has been carefully considered against the type of rider its aimed at. New motor tuning The 2025 Orbea Denna range all make use of the Shimano EP motor series, but like the Orbea Rise with its custom "RS" and "RS+" motor tuning, the Denna gets a "GR and "GR Plus" tuning specific to just this bike. Built in comfort The brand new carbon frame for the 2025 Orbea Denna has built in absorption points, designed to control flex and absorb bumps and lumps from the trail and provide a more comfortable and less physically draining ride, freeing up energy for exploring. By shaping the tube in a way which resists lateral flex, your energy expended into the bike is transformed into forward motion while allowing some vertical flex to absorb the bumps of adverse terrain. Customisable power modes with the Shimano E-Tube App Like with the Orbea Rise range of full suspension trail bikes, the Shimano EP motor series bikes fitted in the 2025 Orbea Denna can be fully customised in the Shimano E-Tube App. Orbea offers their own GR and GR Plus profile and these can be reconfigured to suit your ride. 2025 Denna's position in the eRoad range The 2025 Orbea Denna range is designed to augment Orbea's offering in the eRoad sector. Where previously Orbea offered a gravel variant of the Orbea Gain range of road specific bikes, the Denna offers much more in the way of geometry, technology and capability for those looking for a dedicated crossover platform, easily tackling both road and off-road in a solution specifically designed for its purpose. What makes the 2025 Orbea Denna Unique? Freedom - No Limits Combining the Shimano RS Gen 2 RC motor, 50mm type cleanrance, Orbea's gravel specific geometry and "easy going" handling, the Orbea Denna is optimised for all day epics. Long range The 2025 Orbea Denna range will all come with an integral 420Wh battery. This new battery (the same as used in the 2025 Orbea Rise range of full suspension mountain bikes) has a significantly higher energy density than batteries which have come before it, meaning more power for less weight. Its also compatible with the Orbea Gen2 210Wh range extender, taking total range to 630Wh! Ease of use The whole 2025 Orbea Denna range uses Shimano brakes and gears, making spare parts availability and maintenance a doddle, wherever your ride takes you. In the interest of a clean cockpit, the bike also offers full integration with Garmin cycle computers to use as an e-bike screen. The Denna also offers rear pannier rack and mudguard mounts as standard. Comfort Utilising Orbea's own unidirectional carbon fibre design, the 2025 Orbea Denna has built in frame absorptions points, a compliant carbon fibre fork, componentry which has been selected for its comfort and made from advanced materials. Personalisation If placing a factory order via an Orbea dealer, its possible to alter some of the components of the bike to your preferred geometry, right out of the box. There are also countless component customisation options, as well as custom colourways available through the Orbea MyO platform. When can you get your new 2025 Orbea Denna? The 2025 Orbea Denna is in production right now and stock will be rolling into UK dealers in time for summer rides. Right now, we only have the 2025 Orbea Denna M40 available for pre-order, but if you're interested in any of the other models in the range, please get in touch to secure your new 2025 Orbea Denna through the UKs premier Orbea dealer.
It doesn't feel like that long ago that I was doing the write-up for the previous generation Cube Touring Hybrid models but what I didn't expect was to be writing about just how much more aggressive Cube could get with their specification and pricing... This post is also a little late. I normally write my posts about brand new Cube electric bikes just weeks after launch. We're now two months in to the model year and I'm only just getting to it, mostly because we've been too busy selling them and trying to get enough replacements to fill demand! Quick jump to the best bits:- - What's new with Cube Touring Hybrid models?- Why has the Cube Touring Hybrid range changed for 2025?- Has the price of the Cube Touring Hybrid model range changed for 2025?- What spec changes will we see on the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid models?- Looking for your new Cube Touring Hybrid electric bike? What's new with Cube Touring Hybrid models? The new 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid models are as normal, an evolution of the previous model year however for 2025 the range has had a bit of a hair cut. Normally there are at least 3, if not 4 or more Touring Hybrid models. For 2025, there are just two - the Touring Hybrid One and the Touring Hybrid Pro. As well as being one of the very first manufacturers to introduce the latest Bosch Smart System on their leisure/trekking models, for 2025 there have been some quite significant specification upgrades and new pricing. Why has the Cube Touring Hybrid range changed for 2025? Cube are seeking to aggressively take market share from their competitors. The easiest way to do this is to offer the very best value for money in price and specification and to Cube's credit, it's a title they've held in the industry across almost all of their bikes for at least the last several years. For the new model year, both the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid One and the Cube Touring Hybrid Pro have both seen upgrades to their specification. With a revised pricing structure on both the Touring Hybrid and Kathmandu Hybrid model line, the entry level Kathmandu now comes in at less than the previous top model Touring Hybrid, the EXC. This is the reason for shrinking the range for 2025. It stops an overlap of pricing and specification between the two models. Streamlining of model lines post-Covid is something we've seen from all manufacturers due to recent over-production and unnecessary over-complication of model lines. Has the price of the Cube Touring Hybrid model range changed for 2025? As well as increasing the specification of both the One and Pro model, pricing on the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid models has been reduced, so much so that many of Cube's competitors were in a little bit of a panic prior to release as rumours swirled. The 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid One has been reduced from £2,499 to £2,299. The 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Pro also got a bit of a snip, from £2,899 down to £2,699 RRP. Not only is a nearly 10% reduction on RRP from one year to the next almost unheard of, the specification jumped by almost the same amount, meaning that customers are effectively getting a £400 reduction on a bike which already cost significantly less and had better specification than its closest competitors! What spec changes will we see on the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid models? The overall specification of the bikes is quite similar, but there are some neat and not so obvious changes. The entry level model, the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid One gets a fully adjustable handlebar stem, the new Bosch Purion 200 full colour display, better brakes and upgraded gears in the form of a wide range 11-46t 9 speed Shimano Cues setup. For 2025, the One model now only comes as a Crossbar or Easy entry (no trapeze/uni) option. The second and final model in the range, the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Pro gets all the specification of the One model, but with the addition of a suspension seat post, much more robust welded in pannier rack (an integral part of the frame for better load capacity) and air driven front suspension forks. It also benefits from a slightly better headlight, 11 speed 11-50t Shimano Cues gearing, a larger 625Wh battery and Bosch's new, larger and centrally mounted Kiox 300 full colour display with satellite navigation. For an extra £400 over the One model, this is a huge jump in spec! 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid One The Cube Touring Hybrid One is the entry level model in the range and is a great value entry into leisure riding and light touring. Equipped with a sturdy rear rack, set of mudguards, built in lights and a wide range of gears, the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid One is has an impressive 75Nm and up to 300% assistance from its Bosch Performance Line motor and a range of 30-130 miles from its 500Wh battery. The 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid One 500 is in stock now and comes in two contrasting colourways and also as a Touring One Crossbar and an Touring One Easy Entry frame variant, at £2,299. 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Pro Offering all of the specification of the entry level model but with tweaks to suit those who might be doing more off-road or longer distance riding, the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Pro gets the same motor but a larger 625Wh battery, suspension seat post, wider range and more gears, a rack built into the frame for a higher luggage capacity as well as the Bosch Kiox 300 display with fitness tracking and satellite navigation. Like the entry model, the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Pro 625 is also in stock now and comes in two colour options, but offers all three of Cube's normal Touring Pro Crossbar, Touring Pro Uni and Touring Pro Easy Entry frame options at £2,699. Looking for your new Cube Touring Hybrid electric bike? We already have a good level of stock for the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid One and 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Pro across sizes and colour options, however at the time of writing, there is still some overstock of 2024 models available at discounted prices. If you're looking for your next adventure partner, take a look at the complete Cube Touring Hybrid model range.
The only thing more aggressive than the pricing strategy of 2025 Cube electric bikes is a grizzly bear poked out of hibernation a month early with the sharpest of sticks. That's just about going to be the theme of this article, heading into the new model year. Just how aggressive can you get while still turning out some of the most reliable, highest specification bikes in Europe? Quick jump to interesting parts of this article:- - What's new on 2025 Cube Hybrid Electric Bikes?- What's changed on the Cube Stereo 2025 eBikes?- Any changes to the Cube Reaction Electric Bikes?- How does the 2025 Cube Kathmandu range look?- Any updates to the Cube Touring 2025 eBike range? - Does Cube offer Folding Electric Bikes for 2025? 2025 Cube Electric Bikes - What's New? Price The 2025 Cube electric bike pricing strategy isn't exactly new news, but it's by far the most audacious attack on their competitors and their market share that we've ever seen. Cube have long been known to build some of the most reliable and best equipped bikes for their asking price and each year, they make up as much as nearly 50% of our turnover but this year has really lit a fire under their competition. They're not just good value. Compared to their competition they're super-cheap. So cheap are the 2025 Cube electric bikes that rumours of the ultra-aggressive pricing started circling long before they even came to us to ask for our 2025 order and other manufacturers started adjusting their prices before they bought new bikes to market in the hope of keeping pace with them. Specification The specification of Cube bikes is always outstanding for their price point and 2025 is no different. Making good use of the brand new Bosch equipment, including the "Generation 5" Performance CX 85Nm motor and 600/800Wh frame integrated batteries is a great way of keeping up with the latest tech while ensuring those who want the very best in performance and reliability are attracted to the brand. As well as the world's most highly regarded drive system, the rest of the components are provided only by the top manufacturers including Shimano, SRAM, Magura, Fox, Rockshox and more. Design Partially led by the introduction of the new Bosch components, many of the 2025 Cube electric bikes have brand new frames this year. Not only are fresh frames a good way to keep on top of changing geometry trends, its also an opportunity to take advantage of frame design advancements and decrease weight. The end result is as it always has been - the sleekest looking frames with excellent integration of components, resulting in an ebike which looks less electric and more "bike". 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid Electric Mountain Bikes The Cube Stereo has for as long as we've stocked them, been one of our most sought after eMTB model lines. This year its had a name change. Previous model years came as a 140mm and 160mm travel option styled as "Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC (High Performance Carbon). This year, they'll be called the Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE44 (for the 140mm travel bikes) and the Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE77 (for the 170mm travel bikes). As well as a brand new name, they've all got brand new frames in order to integrate the new Bosch Generation 5 Performance CX motor and Bosch's biggest ever 800Wh battery. 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE44 HPC This year, we'll be stocking 5 different 2025 Cube Stereo ONE44 models, from the entry level 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE44 Pro 800 at £3,399, right up to the range topping 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE44 HPC AT 800 (previously called the "Action Team) at £6,499. If you're looking for a new, powerful and outstanding value trail bike, you could do much worse than a bike from the new 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE44 HPC range. 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE77 HPC We've trimmed the range of the 2025 Cube Stereo ONE77 HPC models down a little due to specification overlaps and in the hope of reducing the headache of choosing a new bike by only stocking the top 4 best value options from the ONE77 range. These will start with the entry level but outstanding value 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE77 Race at £3,999 and end with the top specification 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE77 HPC AT at £6,499. Pre-orders are stacking up quickly so don't miss your chance to get your 2025 Cube Stereo Hybrid ONE77 electric mountain bike. 2025 Cube Reaction Hybrid Electric Mountain Bikes Easily one of the most sold bikes of any model year, the 2025 Cube Reaction Hybrid range was the very first to start seeing pre-orders rolling in on launch day and so far, is still showing the largest amount of interest. This level of demand is generally unprecedented and speaks to the value of the bikes in the range. For the last several years, there hasn't been another manufacturer offering the same level of specification for the same or less money than a Cube Reaction Hybrid model. We're stocking 3 variants of the 2025 Cube Reaction Hybrid in the form of the Performance (starting at £1,999 with a Performance Line 75Nm motor and 500Wh battery), the Pro (starting at £2,599 with a Gen 5 85Nm motor and 600Wh battery) and the Race at £3,099 (using a Bosch Gen 5 Motor and 800Wh battery). With the Pro model taking advantage of the new Bosch Gen 5 motor and the 600Wh and 800Wh batteries and starting at just £2,599, we expect this will be the model which really flies off the shelves with its competition asking as much as 50% more money for the same specification! We don't expect to sit on much stock of the 2025 Cube Reaction Hybrid models, with pre-orders already zapping stock faster than its arriving. 2025 Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Electric Bikes "Kathmandu" is a name now so synonymous with quality, reliability and performance that its often the first model people ask to see when visiting our showroom. Each year, the Kathmandu Hybrid models get the very best/latest components from Bosch. Their most powerful 85Nm motor and biggest battery are standard features on the Cube Kathmandu Hybrid. The 2025 Cube Kathmandu Hybrid gets a new frame in order to integrate the new Bosch Gen 5 motor and their biggest ever but lighter weight 800Wh battery, as well as a handful of aesthetic updates and new colourways. Each of the 2025 Cube Kathmandu Hybrid models come in a Crossbar, Uni (lower crossbar, called the "trapeze") and Easy Entry (no crossbar/step-through) frame variant to cater to rider taste or accessibility requirements. This year the range has been simplified and we'll be stocking their entry level 2025 Cube Kathmandu Hybrid One 800 (£2,999), the 2025 Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Pro (their most popular model at £3,299) and the 2025 Kathmandu Hybrid EX, complete with ABS braking (£3,699). If you're looking to get more from your leisure, touring or commuting rides, you wont beat the performance and value of the 2025 Cube Kathmandu models. 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Electric Bikes The sibling of the Kathmandu models, the Touring Hybrid range gets one step down in the specification ladder and all are fitted with the 75Nm Bosch Performance Line motor and either a 500Wh or 625Wh PowerTube battery. Cube have slimmed down the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid range, creating less crossover with the Kathmandu models. Where the price points used to overlap created confusion and by stripping the range back, there's now a clear boundary between the Touring Hybrid and the Kathmandu Hybrid. For 2025, we'll just be seeing the Touring Hybrid One and the Touring Hybrid Pro but with considerable specification tweaks. The EXC model has been dropped in favour of bringing down the price on the Kathmandu Hybrid One. The 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid One is the entry level model at £2,299 (£200 less than last year) but in specification is actually much closer to the previous model year Touring Hybrid Pro, which is one model above in the range. The 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Pro 625 offers specification closer to that of the previous model year EXC model and also comes with a £200 reduction in cost over last year at just £2,699. Unusually, Cube have chosen to drop the Uni frame from the One model, but it remains in the 2025 Cube Touring Hybrid Pro line-up and all are available in two colourways. 2025 Cube Fold Hybrid folding electric bikes A surprisingly popular model in 2024, by the end of the year we were begging Cube for more stock which they couldn't produce because they ran out of frames! Top quality folding bikes are always a bit of a unique sell. They only really make sense for people who need the folding function but continually have to compete again a myriad of junk far Eastern brands of which almost all are folders. Thankfully, thousands saw the incredible value of a well built, robust and ultra-reliable Bosch driven folding bike from Cube at a price point which just made sense. We'll be stocking the 2025 Cube Fold Hybrid 500 with a Bosch Active Line motor, 500Wh battery and traditional derailleur gears at £2,499 but for just another £500, you can get the 2025 Cube Fold Hybrid Comfort with a maintenance free Gates carbon belt drive, 5 speed hub gearing and the more powerful Bosch Performance Line motor. Both models are available in matte metallic grey and matte metallic blue colour. Ready for your 2025 Cube Electric bike? With pre-orders for the new models already stacking up, prospective new owners will need to be quick on the draw to get their hands on a new model in time for the sun coming out next year, especially on the Stereo and Reaction model lines. If you already know which model you're after, you can hop over to the 2025 Cube models now. If you're still struggling to decide, please give us a call on 01252 279279 (works for Whatsapp too!) or Book an Appointment to come and see us.
What's more exciting than welcoming in a new year? Welcoming in brand new 2025 Orbea electric bikes! Here's a rundown of the models E-Bikeshop will be stocking this year, and why a 2025 Orbea electric bike should be top of your shortlist for the new model year. Quickly navigate the the 2025 Orbea Model Family's:- - Orbea Wild 2025 electric bike re-designs?- What's new on the 2025 Orbea Rise eMTB's?- Updates to the 2025 Orbea Gain electric road bikes?- New 2025 Orbea Diem electric hybrid bike models?- What is the 2025 Orbea MyO and should I go for it? 2025 Orbea electric bike updates The biggest updates to the 2025 Orbea electric bike range come off the back of the recently announced updates to the Bosch product family. With the new Generation 5 motor and a couple of new batteries, the 2025 Orbea Wild has seen a frame update to integrate the new Bosch options. Arguably their biggest release of the year, the new 2025 Orbea Rise models have had a complete frame overhaul. Splitting the range in two, the Orbea Rise range now offers a short and long travel variant, along with a more powerful motor and bigger battery options. 2025 marks the sad departure of the Gain "D" series. A staple for the last 8 years at E-Bikeshop, the lower priced alloy framed variant of their popular electric road bike has been discontinued in line with falling market demand for alloy e-road, with production being focussed on their equally popular "M" model carbon frame options. 2025 Orbea Wild The current frame has seen a light redesign over the 2023/2024 version, which had already netted it the crown of "most awarded electric mountain bike", along with several new stock colour options. Now sporting the latest Bosch Generation 5 motor and the choice of either the current 750Wh PowerTube battery or their brand new, most energy dense 600Wh version (lighter than the previous 500Wh PowerTube), Orbea have made sure to keep their best selling current. The range now also includes two new alloy frame models in the form of the ST or "Short Travel" option. The Wild ST H30 and Wild ST H30 are aimed at those who want to take advantage of the award winning platform, but without the cost of a carbon frame variant and who don't need 170mm of travel. You can see the full Orbea Wild collection here. 2025 Orbea Rise Although launched earlier in the year and already out on the trails, the 2025 Orbea Rise seeks to retain its crown as the best value, highest performing lightweight trail bike money can buy. Returning in the 2025 Orbea electric mountain bike line-up, Orbea has split the Rise range into a "SL" (super light) and LT (long travel) version. Now riders can choose their model not just based on the specification of components but also their intended use with 140mm and 160mm travel options. As well as splitting out the geometry and suspension choice, Orbea have also upgraded the motor and battery options. The 2025 Orbea Rise now offers a full 85Nm version of the Shimano EP801 motor as well as two new battery options. Riders now have the choice of either a 420Wh or 630Wh battery on all frame/model variants. To complement the Carbon framed model range, there are also two new Alloy frame options. Offering the same motor and battery options, they offer a lower cost entry onto one of the greatest lightweight electric trail bikes ever conceived. You can see all of the new 2025 Orbea Rise models here. 2025 Orbea Gain With the last of the previous model year Gain D (alloy frame) models leaving us in the coming weeks, we'll be retaining the Orbea Gain M models, which all have a carbon frame, Mahle X20 motor, their biggest 353Wh battery and multiple specification options. While road cyclists are generally the hardest and last to convert to electric bikes and make up the smallest percentage of our customers at E-Bikeshop, having a premium product for them is key. Road cyclists are generally the most discerning when it comes to performance and specification and these two things are top of Orbea's agenda when designing road bikes. Whether its a Tour de France level rider or recreational/leisure cyclist, Orbea seeks to ensure every riders needs are met with a hand painted, hand built product built to look good, ride fast and most importantly, last. The range begins with the 2025 Gain M30, equipped with a Shimano 105 12 speed group set. Moving through the models, their top specification 2025 Gain M10i uses exactly the same equipment as world tour cyclists, with complete 12 speed Dura Ace Di2 group set, carbon wheels, bars, seat post and Pirelli PZero SmartEVO tyres. If this has you thinking you could use a little extra push on the climbs, take a look at the new Orbea Gain models now. 2025 Orbea Diem Back in March this year I rode the 2025 Orbea Diem in the Basque hills around the Orbea factory. This super cool touring, leisure and commuting bike is unbelievably versatile. There are three models in the range for 2025 - The Diem 30, Diem 20 and Diem 10. The Diem 30 offers riders the same drive system as the Orbea Rise, with an 85Nm Shimano EP6 motor, a 630Wh battery and 10 speed Shimano Cues gearing. The Diem 20 offers the same, with the addition of a Shimano Nexus 5 speed internal hub and a maintenance free Gates carbon belt drive system. Building on the 20, the 2025 Orbea Diem 10 offers fully automatic electronic shifting in the form of Enviolo AutomatiQ, front luggage rack and a dropper seat post as standard. It also gets the slightly lighter EP8 version of Shimano's 85Nm motor. One of the best all round bikes we've ever sold and stock in the building already, you can buy your 2025 Orbea Diem now. 2025 Orbea MyO A fantastic service which doesn't seem to get as much air time as it deserves, the Orbea MyO system allows riders to customise their bike to fit their preferred specification or style. Most of Orbea's bikes (normally only excluding the entry level model of each range) are able to have their specification tweaked with pre-set alternative components to better match the riding style of each rider. On mountain bikes, this allows riders to change suspension, brakes, gears, dropper post length and even the type and length of stems, bars and other components. There are also often multiple options of wheel choice, allowing riders to start with a cheaper model and select only the parts they want from the higher spec models. To top it off, not only are riders able customise the colour scheme and design of their bike with millions of colour and style combinations in order to create something truly unique, this part of the service is completely free. While MyO bikes can only be ordered via an Orbea dealer directly from the factory (specification/colour changes are not possible on stock bikes once they've left the factory), the lead times are generally only 6-8 weeks and can occasionally be much shorter where component availability allows. If you're not in an immediate rush and want to take advantage of the option to customise your bike, you can build your specification on the Orbea website and download it as a PDF to send to us. If you need help building your new 2025 Orbea MyO custom bike, pop in and see us or give us a call on 01252 279279. Ready to buy your new 2025 Orbea Electric bike? Orbea build some of the best performing and easily the best looking bikes in the world and they're a brand we think every cyclist should experience at some point in their cycling career. If you think that now is the time for you to be heading out on a brand new Orbea, you can view them all here.
The brand new 2025 Orbea Rise range is finally here! Since getting a glimpse of it at the Orbea factory in Spain for the first time back in March, we've been itching to share the news everyone has been waiting for. The 2025 Orbea Rise carbon models are here (we even have a launch day bike in store!), available to pre-order and hits the market with everything Rise riders have been dreaming of. Read on to discover everything you need to know about the 2025 Orbea Rise models. What's new on the 2025 Orbea Rise? The carbon frame range is now split in two - SL and LT. The reasons will become immediately obvious when you look at the suspension travel and geometry. Where the previous generation Rise models tried to bridge the gap from super easy green trails through to edging in on the technical territory of the Bosch Gen 4 driven Orbea Wild models and with red trails highlighting its limits of use case, the new 2025 Orbea Rise range has been "split", with two versions more acutely pointed at specific purpose but coving a much wider scope of riding. New 2025 Orbea Rise SL The new Orbea Rise SL models are designed to be the lightest of the range. Initially launching with the M10, M-Team and M-Ltd, an M20 is planned later in the model year. The "Super Light" version carries over the same suspension travel as the previous two generations, with a 150/140 or 140/140 travel split for those who spend most of the time riding with two wheels on the floor of fast, flowing single track or for XC riders who want more flexibility in their rides. If you ride green and blue trails but find your limits towards the more technical side of reds, this is the model for you. New 2025 Orbea Rise LT The one it feels like everyone has been waiting for. LT, or "Long Travel" versions come as a 160/160 option and open up the Orbea Rise to much more aggressive riding and will also initially be available in M10, M-Team and M-Ltd flavour. Offering the same peak power as a Bosch Generation 4 motor, the LT, with its much longer travel it's most at home under the command of those who ride the reds for lunch and blacks for dessert and will actively seek out the most technical and jump filled sections of trails rather than steering towards the escape runs. Shimano EP8 RS Gen 2 on 2025 Orbea Rise models. You asked. You got. Not only has the bike been given more travel, the Shimano EP8 motor has lost its leash and now comes with its full 85Nm available to riders straight out of the box. As with the previous version, there is still the option to switch between two profiles. Previously called "Profile 1" and "Profile 2", the new "RS" mode offers 54Nm or torque with the most "elastic" and natural feeling ride. "RS+" unleashes the full 85Nm potential and provide maximum assistance at lower cadences, especially on climbs where pedalling speed is often slower. These can be switched using the Shimano E-Tube App. The new Gen 2 motor is easily identifiable with its new signature red "S". The new, faster and more precise motor responses to rider input are now much more noticeable at lower cadences and it responds much more powerfully, making steeper climbs and the most technical trails feel more natural, even for novice riders. New 2025 Orbea Rise batteries. To back up the now more powerful motor and ensure riders don't have their fun cut short, the 2025 Orbea Rise models will be shipping with two battery options. The bike is equipped as standard with a 430Wh battery, with an option to switch this out to a 630Wh instead. Insider info - Orbea initially set up the Rise in production as a 430Wh "standard" bike with the option for a 630Wh in the configurator but with an overwhelming preference towards the 630Wh option from dealers (who know what riders really want!), they were actually forced to split the bike into two models with two unique identifiers in production and its for this reason that E-Bikeshop will be stocking all 2025 Orbea Rise models with the 630Wh as standard but retaining the option to have it as a 420Wh if riders prefer. New Range Extender for 2025 Orbea Rise. To complement the new battery configurations there will also be a new range extender kit - older models wont be compatible. Uniquely for 2025, the range extender will only be compatible with the smaller battery equipped bikes. All 430Wh fitted bikes will be able to have their battery extended by a further 210Wh, taking it up to the same capacity as the larger battery models, but with the option to drop just over a kilo of weight in seconds for shorter rides, but bolt on almost another 50% range. If it helps you choose between the two, a 430Wh equipped bike with a range extender will have the same theoretical range as a 630Wh equipped bike but will be slightly heavier than just buying a 630Wh equipped bike. Insider info - Having had a brand new 2025 Orbea Rise SL M10 with a 430Wh battery hidden away in our HQ for a few weeks already, surprisingly, shipped with the bike in its box was a side-mount bottle cage. Looking at it carefully, it has the same little lugs which are used to fit a securing band for a range extender on previous models and so we expect (although this isn't confirmed) that the range extenders might be shipped without their normal cage mount system and it'll fit into the kindly supplied cage with the bike and secured in the normal way. We'll update when we know but if this is the case, we expect spares will be available. The new 2025 Orbea Rise - Why, and why now? Its no secret that Orbea are arguably one of the best manufacturers at not just "watching" their market but being a part of it. Trail Tails is a perfect example. Their staff and their dealers are heavily embedded in their riding communities (including your Facebook groups ;) ) and ideas, wishes and complaints don't go unnoticed. In fact, they're not just fed up the chain, they're actively listened to. We've never seen any manufacturer do as much for their riding community as Orbea. The 2025 Orbea Rise specification evolution. Ever since the first generation Rise models were launched, people have been fettling and tweaking them to their own individual tastes but within months, we had been getting requests to modify bikes before they even left our store, which left us a bit baffled. The previous bike was in our eyes, already perfect for what it was designed for... Tyres It seemed that many didn't like the custom Maxxis Rekon tyre. I have to concede, riding a first generation Rise myself in anything less than a clear dry day had that Rekon EXO+ squirming at the back of the bike and wheel spinning on climbs even in Eco mode and the general consensus was to shove the Dissector from the front on the back and fit an Assegai on the front before you even headed out into the muck and mire of the UKs best riding spots. Some were even going as far as a Maxxis Minion DHF/DHR combo. If you take a look at the spec of the new 2025 Orbea Rise models, you'll find this original tyre combination missing. Its been replaced with either an Assegai at the front and a Minion DHF at the rear, or a pair of Schwalbe Wicked Will shoes. Not only do these more accurately fit how people are using the Rise, its shows that Orbea actively listen to feedback. You didn't like it. They changed it. Brakes Then there was the brakes. "I need a 203mm rotor up front". Apparently "everyone" was doing this. Why, I thought? At just over 100kg and a fairly aggressive trails rider, I get on just fine with the stock 180mm Galfer items. What were these riders doing with their first and second generation Rise models which warranted going for the biggest brakes? Regardless, the new 2025 Orbea Rise LT models ship with a 203mm/180mm brake setup as standard. Suspension Last to start seeing change was the suspension, and suddenly it all became clear. Requests of 160mm Fox DHX coil at the rear and a set of Fox 38 170mm forks up front made it immediately obvious where all these requests were coming from and being completely honest, it made me a little bit sad. Effectively, what these riders were doing was turning the Rise into something it was never meant to be. Not only was the frame never intended to be used as a bike park weapon, its geometry wasn't designed with it in mind either and so try as they might, all of these modifications would never net them something which wasn't designed to be that way from the factory and it would never be as good as Orbea could do it. So they did. The 2025 Orbea Rise range is a result of your feedback. With the 2025 Orbea Rise SL models effectively being a continuation of the previous generations with more power and the option of a much larger battery, the culmination of the last several years of development and feedback from riders and the real standout is the new 2025 Orbea Rise LT range. The super light weight, full power, long travel bike with "all-day epic" range you asked for - designed not just to attack anything you can point it at, but leave all of its competitors still hitching a ride on the uplift or lost in the dust trail of its back tyre (just not that Rekon you all said only worked in Spain!). 2025 Orbea Rise range - Wrapped. This is the first time we've been really excited about a new bike in a while. In a post-Covid industry state of stalled development and most manufacturers "rolling over" the same models in new clothes for the last couple of years, Orbea has been our only manufacturer to continue rolling out multiple and truly brand new bikes and we expect the 2025 Orbea Rise models to upset its rivals and be just as successful as their new, multi-award winning Wild models. This is the bike you asked for. Production is expected to be fairly limited in the first 6 months so if a new 2025 Rise SL or 2025 Rise LT model sounds like the bike you've been waiting for, get your pre-order in early to avoid disappointment. We have the earliest possible arrivals in the UK and our deliveries begin as early as this month (May 2024). View the 2025 Orbea Rise range here and pre-order yours now for just £199 or book in to our showroom to see in in person today.
Old bike, new tricks. The 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid model range is as almost as old as e-bikes themselves yet with continual model development it returns each year with new components and specification to keep it at the very forefront of hybrid and leisure riding at a value point which other brand just can't compete with. 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid Models. Which Cube Touring Hybrid is right for you? The Cube Touring Hybrid range is vast. So vast in fact that we don't stock them all because it would take up too much space even in our 170 bike showroom! The 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid is actually 6 different bikes, each with 3 different frame options and offered in alternate colours ways in 5 different sizes. The Cube Touring Hybrid name is found on 90 different bikes for 2024! The 6 different bikes offer varying levels of specification at individual price points, but we hand pick just the best value models which for this year, means we're stocking the 3 best options. What's the difference between the 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid One, Pro and EXC? Cube make all of the their bikes in multiple specification options and the 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid model range is no different. With dozens of potential options, we trim the range down to just the best value models to make life easier for our customers. Those new to eBikes can find the choice of bikes very confusing so we aim to take out the hard work but hand picking the models we know will best suit the largest proportion of riders, while ensuring we offer the best possible value for money in them models picked by our experts each year. The 2024 Touring Hybrid One is their entry level bike, designed for newer or "lighter use" riders. Those who often only do shorter rides of sub-50 miles, mostly stick to paved or hard pack surfaces, don't carry much on the bike or otherwise wont be out on it every day will find that the One model has everything they need (and possible a little more too!). The Touring Hybrid One covers most riding at a price point which makes sense for less frequent or demanding riders. The 2024 Touring Hybrid Pro is often the most highly sought after and most sold model in their range each year. Offering an increase in brake, suspension and gear component value, it lends itself to those who like to be out every weekend, taking in the tracks, trails and countryside views as readily as carrying a weeks worth of shopping on its frame integrated pannier rack. Since this is the most common type of leisure style electric bike rider, it also offers the best value to most. Up from the Pro model, the 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid EXC offers a modest jump in specification for just a small increase in cost. The first in the model line to get 12 gears and 4 piston brakes, hills become flatter and it'll pull you, your bike and its luggage to a stop quickly and easily, even in the worst conditions. Easy Entry, Uni, or Crossbar? As well as multiple specification and colour options, Cube also produce the 2024 Touring Hybrid models in multiple frame styles and there really is no right or wrong answer on this part. Its entirely personal preference, but there are a few things which are worthwhile considering. The Crossbar model, normally seen as a "men's" bike offers the traditional horizontal crossbar. The Trapeze or "Uni" frame still has a crossbar, but its positioned much lower, which dramatically reduces the stand-over height of the bike. The Easy Entry or "Easy" has no crossbar at all and is great for those with issues with mobility or range of motion. When purchasing a bike, especially as riders get older, its worthwhile considering how long you plan to keep the bike and where you see your abilities in the next 8-10 years (or more!) that these bikes are designed to last. Problems with knees, hips and backs rarely ease with age and in most cases they will continue to decline, even if only very slowly. If you can just about get a leg over a crossbar right now, would it be worth while considering a Uni or Easy frame now, rather than potentially trading it in much earlier than would have you seeing the best value from it? A full Crossbar, Uni or Easy Entry option is available on all our of stocked models. New updates from Bosch for 2024 The 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid range has once again undergone a complete overhaul for the new model year. Much of this is directly influenced by the introduction by Bosch of their new "Smart System" technology. As well as yet another brand new frame (it was only updated last year!), the motor, which is still the same well trusted Bosch Performance Line Generation 3 powerplant they've been using for many years, has now had a major update and offers and increased 75Nm of torque - only 10 less than their most powerful Generation 4 Performance CX! As well as the new motor, there are now two new display systems being used on the 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid models. 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid Models Manufacturing nearly 200 models each year, we trim the Cube Touring Hybrid range down to the best value options most suited to the type of people who ride them most. Below are the models we've hand picked for the 2024 model year. Cube Touring Hybrid One 500 2024 The entry level model in the 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid range but packing some exceptional features for its price point, the Touring Hybrid One gets an 11-36t Shimano Alivio 9 speed gear set up, MT200 hydraulic brakes and a plush set of 63mm travel Suntour forks. The Bosch Generation 3 motor and 500Wh battery make this a truly exceptional value leisure bike and weekly shop carrier. At £2,499, you'll struggle to find another Gen 3 powered bike offering the same specification. Learn more about the Cube Touring Hybrid One 500 Crossbar, Touring Hybrid One 500 Uni or Touring Hybrid One 500 Easy. Cube Touring Hybrid Pro 625 2024 The mid tier model in the range, the 2024 Touring Hybrid Pro offers a significant jump in specification for only a modest extra outlay. On top of the specification of the Touring Hybrid One riders get a suspension seat post, Intuvia 100 display screen, adjustable stem, wider range rear cassette, a frame integral rack and of course a 625Wh battery. All of this extra specification comes at only £400 more than the entry level model, with the Pro costing £2,899. It also comes in two colours! Learn more about the Cube Touring Hybrid Pro 625 Crossbar, Touring Hybrid Pro 625 Uni or Touring Hybrid Pro 625 Easy. Cube Touring Hybrid EXC 625 2024 Our top specification model for this year, the 2024 Cube Touring Hybrid EXC is engineered to outlast and outride its competitors at a price-point which others simply don't compete with. Including all of the specification of the Pro model, it also adds air suspension, a Shimano XT group set with ultra-wide ratio gearing to scale even the biggest of hills while fully loaded as well as a more powerful set of anchors to bring it all to a stop.

There's something quite special about being able to design your own bike - especially when it costs absolutely nothing. You read that right. You can custom paint your brand new 2023 Orbea Wild and 2023 Orbea Rise in millions of combinations and it wont cost you a penny above the normal RRP! Lets take a look at the options for 2023 Orbea Wild and 2023 Orbea Rise MyO bikes and how E-Bikeshop offers the easiest, best and fastest way to get your MyO bike. TLDR; We have good levels of remaining allocations for MyO bikes with short lead times and the full list is near the bottom of this article... What is Orbea MyO? The Orbea MyO is Orbea's own customisation tool which allows riders to not only custom paint their new bike, but also adjust some of the specification to their preferred component or to better suit their riding needs. This can either be done via Orbea directly (with the bike shipped to their chosen dealer), or directly through your Orbea dealer. We'll cover how to do this a little later on. Not only are many of the component swaps free, those which are upgrades above the normal specification are only charged at the price difference. At the end of the process, you can export your new bike as a PDF to keep or take to your dealer to order. What can you change in Orbea MyO? Paint Every Orbea MyO Wild and Rise bike is hand painted with incredible care and precision. Each of these models is actually made of at least half a dozen different painted "sections" and the colour of these can all be chosen from their customisation charts, allowing potentially millions of combinations and riders to choose something understated, lairy, bright, bold but always unique. This part is completely free. We "painted" this demo version in E-Bikeshop colours for this article. SpecificationAs well as being able to paint the bike how you like, you can also change the specification. Wheels and tyres, bars and brakes, seat posts, batteries, displays and suspension can all be swapped out from the bikes standard specification and replaced with Orbea's own suggested replacements. Not only does this allow much greater flexibility for riders, but they also only charge the difference in price between the standard and the upgraded component. Some are even free! On the 2023 Carbon (M) Rise variants, you can also elect to switch the battery from 360Wh to the new, larger 540Wh version. Why should you choose MyO over a stock bike? With some manufacturers having a market share so big that you can easily find half a dozen people at your local bike park all riding the same bike in the same colour, Orbea MyO offers their riders something truly special and unique. As well as being able to express yourself through your custom designed bike, it offers a great value tool for specification changes. Lots of riders have their own preference of components and no manufacturer can account for all rider preferences. With the Orbea MyO tool, components like suspension often have three or more choices, allowing riders to find something better suited to their own riding style or component preference. No more having to buy the shock you want in advance of receiving your bike in the hope you can flog the stock one on eBay for at least half it's RRP! With some manufacturers having such a huge market share that its not uncommon to rock up to your local trail centre and find handfuls of people riding the same bike in the same colour you can be quietly confident that your bike, is yours. How do you get your Orbea MyO bike? There are two ways to get your hands on a brand new 2023 Orbea Wild or 2023 Orbea Rise through the MyO platform. The hardest/longest way.. Anyone can order a MyO bike at any time via the Orbea website. You simply select the model you want to start with as the "base", select a size, and then complete your specification of paint and parts. The downside is that all Orbea bikes must be shipped via a dealer. They don't deal "direct to consumer" because they want to make sure all of their bikes are handed over or delivered to the customer in nothing but absolutely perfect, ready to ride condition with a full handover and set up where possible. The reason this is the most difficult and will come with the longest lead times is that you will always be joining the back of the queue. If (and its a big "if", because MyO bikes sell out quickly at the start of the model year) you can get one, you can often expect lead times of between 6 and 12 months to get your bike. It's still worth it, but there's a better way... The easiest/fastest way.At E-Bikeshop, we pre-order "MyO frame blanks" at the start of the year - something which very few dealers bother with. This means that we always have bare MyO frames waiting/pre-programmed into production. As well as speeding up the order/arrival process, we can also ship them anywhere in the world, so its not even necessary to have a dealer close by to get yours. In short, if you didn't already order one at the start of the year, E-Bikeshop is likely to be the fastest way to get your new 2023 Orbea Wild or 2023 Orbea Rise via the MyO platform. What MyO options do E-Bikeshop have left for 2023? Despite already being half way into model year 2023, we still have a small portion of our pre-ordered MyO frames left, but time is running to supply a specification for them. We must supply 45 days notice of their specification prior to their expected production and shipping date. Here is our list of 2023 Orbea MyO frame blanks, available for immediate specification and their current build date (they would be expected to land with us 1 week later).

The latest in a lengthy history of top quality Hard Tail electric mountain bikes from one of the most recognisable electric bike brands in the industry, the new 2023 Haibike AllTrack eMTB models take over where the Hardseven and HardNine left off last year. Where did the 2023 Haibike AllTrack models come from? Previously, the Haibike hard tail mountain bike market segment was broken down into two key model groups - The Hardseven, and the Hardnine. Of each of these you could have a Hardseven 4, Hardseven 5, Hardseven 6, and so on. The same for the Hardnine. As you went up through the model numbers, the specification would increase. This would include changes to the drive manufacturer (Bosch and Yamaha), the size of the battery, and the quality of the brakes, gears and suspension. The two model lines were also concurrent. A Hardseven 5 and a Hardnine 5 were exactly the same bike, except for one key difference. The wheels. Why does the 2023 Haibike AllTrack model line have two different wheel options? Which size of wheel is best is an argument as old as time, and is why Haibike have tried their best to cover all bases by offering their Hard Tail mountain bikes in two different sizes. Previously, the Hardseven had 27.5" wheels, and the Hardnine had... you guessed it. 29" wheels. 26" wheels haven't been seen on many manufacturers bikes for many years now, but there is no denying that as a wheel size, it was the most manoeuvrable. The smaller rolling radius meant that tight technical trail pieces were easily negotiated by pro-racers with an ever daring number of super quick flicks of the back end. 29" then, shouldn't make sense? Except it does. 29" wheels are faster rolling and bounce their way over trail obstacles with much greater ease. They have a much shallower "angle of attack" at rocks, roots and kerbs. They also have a much larger contact patch with the ground, and so they tend to offer much more grip. The downside is, they naturally weigh more. Up to 15% more... Enter 27.5". 27.5" wheels offer the best of both worlds. Pulling a little of the best features of both options, they offer a more rounded experience for riders who need their bike to be as good in the technical descents, as they do blasting along single-track. Which wheel size is best on the 2023 Haibike AllTrack range? Which wheel size you eventually decide to go for should depend on the intended use. If you'll only ever be riding light trails, canal paths and byways, the 29" option will always be the better choice, where fast, decisive direction changes are less likely than speed over continually varying terrain. If you expect to be riding in places where the going will be a bit more technical, the 27.5" is your new friend. A smaller wheel will lose a little in obstacle rollover and speed but if you're buying a bike based on its wheel size in this way, you'll be expected to be jumping those obstacles anyway! If you find yourself in a position where the opposite option is available, give us a call and we'll be happy to find a suitable alternative however for the most part, pretty much anyone can ride either with no discernible performance loss unless you're really pushing their limits. There is a slight advantage at the very top and bottom end of the scale, where a shorter rider who needs a small frame might benefit from lower stand-over on the 27.5" version and a taller rider might gain some extra room on the 29". What changed from the Hardseven and Hardnine, to the new 2023 Haibike AllTrack? The 2023 AllTrack 4 27" and 29" options (new colour aside), looks very similar to the previous generation with a key, hidden difference. The new 2023 versions now come with the latest Bosch Smart System as standard. Not only does this mean that the bike now has a new LED Remote display, but its also fully equipped with Bluetooth for paring with the new Bosch eBike Flow smartphone app. This new app based bike interface system also allows over the air software updates. No more having to visit a dealer in order to stay up to date latest performance and reliability tweaks! The 2023 Haibike AllTrack 5 27" and 29" options have also had a big update. A completely brand new frame has been designed, in order to incorporate the latest Yamaha PWS2 motor. Previously only available on much more expensive mountain bikes, at 80Nm it gets a 10Nm lead over the AllTrack 4, and with a much bigger battery. The 720Wh Yamaha InTube battery is quite a jump from the 500Wh option in the AllTrack 4. As well as more power and a higher output motor, the 2023 AllTrack 5 models also get upgraded brakes and gears, along with a set of 120mm travel forks. 2023 Haibike AllTrack 4 & 2023 AllTrack 5 Models For 2023 there will be a 27.5" and a 29" wheel of both options available from E-Bikeshop, and each of these will be available in multiple size options. Some of these will be available on a Pre-order basis only due to demand, so its worth getting in early! 2023 Haibike AllTrack 4 (27) Our entry level AllTrack option, the 2023 Haibike AllTrack 4 (27) uses the highly reliable Bosch Performance Line 70Nm motor, a 500Wh battery, Shimano 9 Speed Alivio gearing and the brand new Bosch Smart System integration for continual update availability.

It doesn't seem that long ago we were first launching this incredible machine to our customers around the world. Now, as the 3rd generation Rise models begin landing in stores, it's time to take another look at the 2023 Orbea Rise models and remind ourselves why this is one of the best electric mountain bikes ever created, along with what's changed since they first began turning wheels in early 2021. 2023 Orbea Rise Model Range. The Orbea Rise started off as just 4 models when it was first launched. The M20 offered an "entry level" option but with a very respectable specification. The M10 offered the best all round value for most riders, with the M-Team and M-Ltd offering the very top end specification of brakes, gears, suspension and other carbon goodies for those who need the ultimate performance package. For the 2023 Orbea Rise this remains, but during the last model year, Orbea introduced the "H" or "Hydro" range. These follow the same design and geometry principles, but in just three models. The H30 was the entry level offering, with a much loved return of Marzzochi forks, the H15 was the middling option with the H10 their top end model with all of the bells and whistles the most competitive trail rider could want. For 2023, the Orbea Rise H15 has been replaced by the Orbea Rise H20. This sits in the same place in the model hierarchy, but brings the naming convention in line with their other models. H15 models will remain available, while stocks last. 2023 Orbea Rise design principles. Orbea have a very rich history in cycling which is sadly missed or passed over by many riders outside of Spain and the rest of Europe. If this is your very first sighting of one of these beautiful machines, take a read of Orbea Bikes, a History Lesson to catch up on 183 years of Orbea and pop back here when you're done. The way in which the Rise models were designed is something we covered in depth in the very first article about them back in 2021, timed with their launch. We wont go into the same level of detail here, but if you want to bring yourself up to date, you can read Orbea Rise - Beyond. RS Power Weighing as little as just 2.5kg and offering 60Nm of support from their uniquely tuned Shimano EP8 and EP6 motors, the 2023 Orbea Rise drive system is designed to effortlessly but directly mimic rider input, offering its peak performance when you too, are trying to push out the best effort you can. RS Range When it first launched, the Orbea Rise model range came with just a 360Wh battery option. Now with the launch of the Rise H offering a 540Wh battery as standard, optional bolt on range extenders for an extra 252Wh and the new 2023 Orbea Rise M models having the option for a 540Wh battery as standard, there has never been more flexibility in range from this super lightweight machine. RS Weight On the subject of weight - the 2023 Orbea Rise models are some of the lightest eMTB models in the world. Their new 2023 Rise M-Ltd tips the scales at as little as 15.9kg for the new model year, which is a truly bonkers weight for a "ready to ride" electric bike with all of its running gear fitted. RS Interface The rider aids on the 2023 Orbea Rise models have been stripped back to the bare necessities. On the Carbon models, just the EN100 switch with a series of LED lights to offer battery and selected power level information. On the Alloy models, the Shimano E7000 screen is provided, giving more information on speed, distance, and other parameters. All have integrated Bluetooth and ANT+ for use with Garmin devices and their own smartphone app but they're also all cross compatible. We offer the E7000 screen upgrade on the M models at just £149.99. New components on the 2023 Orbea Rise models With each new model year, the model has evolved either due to better components becoming available, some not being available, or tweaks to alter the performance of the bike in line with customer feedback, needs and expected price point. The majority of specification remains the same, but there are some changes which we'll list out later. Buy a 2022 model "on sale", or wait for a 2023 Orbea Rise? Both model years represent incredible value for money when compared against a very slim number of competitors. While the market is changing its mindset on lower power, ultra lightweight models, there still remains a pretty slim choice for these high performance eMTB models and when stacked up against the likes of the Specialised Levo SL and others, the Orbea Rise of any model year offers more power, range and better components for significantly less money. Not bad, for a company still hand painting and building its bikes... While the changes for 2023 are great, for most riders, the previous generation model will still do absolutely everything that riders need and so unless you absolutely need the components from the 2023 Orbea Rise spec list, while you can grab yourself a bargain, we would highly recommend it. The biggest change for most is the addition of the 540Wh battery for the Orbea Rise M (carbon) range. Range anxiety still appears to prevail, despite us having got just a shade under 40 miles and nearly 5,000 feet of climbing from the 360Wh version in testing. To break it down, the 2023 Orbea Rise M-Ltd with a 540Wh battery is £10,134 at RRP. The 2022 version with a 360Wh battery was £9,599 RRP and at the time of writing, currently £7,999 in our Spring Sale. Add in the range extender at £449 and you have 612Wh at £8,448, saving nearly £1,700 over the new model. Some models, in order to keep price rises to a minimum, have also seen specs tweaked downward which is a bit of a shame and a sign of the times in the bike industry at the moment. With raw materials, labour and global logistics prices going through the roof and manufacturers reluctant to add more than the normal 5-10% increase to bike prices each year, specifications have taken the brunt of it and this is the same across all bike manufacturers globally - we've seen the same of Cube and Haibike this year too. 2023 Orbea Rise Models As we have from the very first launch, E-Bikeshop will be stocking the complete range of 2023 Orbea Rise models. New models often sell out quickly, especially the "middle" models which tend to offer the best value specification for most riders so Pre-ordering from our incoming stock is almost always necessary to ensure you get the bike you want, as quickly as they land with us. Colourways -The 2023 Rise model range is available in two standard colourways on the Carbon range - Silver/Raw Carbon and (Chameleon) Green. The Alloy will be available in 3 colourways - Silver/Blue, Purple/Black and Brown/Black. MyO with E-Bikeshop - We have a pre-agreed number of "MyO blanks" for rider customisation. These are "blank" frames in our allocation to be used by our customers looking to take advantage of the Orbeas MyO platform. Riders can completely customise their bike, including colour and all specification, right from the factory. This isn't always the fastest option if done direct, but we have delivery dates starting as early as April for custom Rise models. Please get in touch to secure one of these exclusive bikes because they're not available through our website. MyO is exclusively available for Carbon (M) frame models. 2023 Orbea Rise H Alloy models Fitted with the 540Wh battery as standard, their marginally lower specification and cheaper to produce alloy frames make the Orbea Rise accessible and more appealing to a much wider ranger of riders than ever before. 2023 Orbea Rise H30 Starting with the lowest price and working up, the 2023 Orbea Rise H30 is the cheapest way to get your way onto a super lightweight bike. Largely unchanged the bike sees the fitting of an EP6 motor instead of the EP8 from last year (identical bar its slightly heavier outer casing), and the swapping of a couple of items for Orbea's own fantastic range of "OC" branded items. At £4,999, its a great entry to the world of lightweight ebikes. Learn More about the brand new 2023 Orbea Rise H30 2023 Orbea Rise H20 Stepping in for the H15, the new 2023 Orbea Rise H20, this is probably one of the biggest specification changes, amounting to an almost totally separate model. The EP8 motor changes to an EP6, the forks are swapped out to a set of Fox Float 34 Performance and as with the H30, the changing of some components like bars and stems to Orbea's own OC components. It does benefit from a small brake upgrade for the new model year. Learn More about the brand new 2023 Orbea Rise H20 2023 Orbea Rise H10 The top model in the alloy framed line up, the 2023 Orbea Rise H10 has also seen a handful of specification changes for the new year. Now equipped with Fox 36 Performance forks, hybrid SLX/XT group set, it also takes advance of some of Orbea's own new OC components. Learn More about the brand new 2023 Orbea Rise H10 2023 Orbea Rise M Carbon models Fitted with a 360Wh battery as standard but with the option to upgrade to a 540Wh battery and offering the lightest weight options in its class, the Orbea Rise M models are for those who need ultimate performance. With class leading componentry for the lowest possible weight, the carbon frame option is a trail beater with little competition. 2023 Orbea Rise M20 The entry level carbon model, this is the first step onto the ladder of super-lightweights for many. A specification similar to last year but a small suspension tweak to shave a little weight, the 2023 Orbea Rise M20 is a great way to start taking advantage of the performance benefits of light weight bikes. Learn More about the brand new 2023 Orbea Rise M20 2023 Orbea Rise M10 Each year, the "10" model normally represents the best value for the largest group of riders and the 2023 Orbea Rise M10 is no different. Offering the best all round performance for its price point, its the first in the range to get Kashima coated Fox equipment, as well as a complete Shimano XT group set. Learn More about the brand new 2023 Orbea Rise M10 2023 Orbea Rise M-Team Heading on our way to the top model is the 2023 Orbea Rise M-Team. A slight upgrade to the already very high specification Kashima coated fox equipment on the M10, the M-Team is also the only model in the range to get fully electronic gearing in the form of the Shimano XT Di2 set up with fully automatic cadence based shifting technology. Learn More about the brand new 2023 Orbea Rise M-Team 2023 Orbea Rise M-Ltd At the absolute top end of the model line up, the 2023 Rise M-Ltd is the very peak of ultra-lightweight eMTB performance. Weighing in at just 15.9kg, the M-Ltd makes use of the very best components the mountain bike industry has to offer and you really need to take a look at the full specification on the product page to get a true understanding of just how high tech this bike is this year!

Since its launch two years ago, the Orbea Vibe model range has been expanded and updated to keep up with fast paced ultra-urban and bicycle commuting lifestyles, while still lending itself perfectly to weekend leisure cycling. Offering 40Nm and more than enough range for the daily commute and a bit of weekend Hand crafted and finished by Orbea in Mallabia, the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 range still offers great value in a beautifully finished package. What makes the 2023 Orbea Vibe so special? The Vibe was born from the F series models of several years ago. Essentially one of their Gain models with a Tiagra group set, it simply featured a set of flat bars rather than the drop bars of a traditional road bike. Fast-forward a couple of years and armed with ample feedback from F series owners who loved their comfort and versatility, the Orbea Vibe range was honed into the perfectly crafted commuting and leisure machine it is today. Nimble, responsive, compact and yet exceptionally light at just over 16.6kg for the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 non-equipped version, it lends itself well to those who need an effortlessly simple bike they can just hop on and take off to work, the shops, or along the local trails and byways. 2023 Orbea Vibe technology Mahle X35 Drive system. The 2023 Orbea Vibe models exclusively use the Mahle X35 motor which is also found on the "Gain" series road bikes. This super light-weight drive system offers up to 40Nm of effortlessly punchy support when you need it but is light enough to use the bike without when you don't. The only hub drive system we have ever stocked, and purely on its merits of being ultra-reliable. Mahle MySmartBike In order to do away with unnecessary distractions and shave further weight, the Mahle system doesn't come with a traditional ebike screen as standard, however all Mahle equipped electric bikes from Orbea come with Bluetooth and ANT+ connectivity as standard. The 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 models are all set up as standard to communicate with the Mahle My SmartBike app. This easy to use mobile app offers a huge range of data about the bike and its rider. Not only can it be used to keep tabs on your battery status and range, speed, distance and time ridden along with other bike specific data, it also includes a complete fitness tracking suite. "Urban Geometry" When designing the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 models, Orbea skilfully looked to anticipate how riders would use the bike, especially in urban and ultra-urban environments. A more upright seating position than a pure road bike, but not as aggressive as a mountain bike, the geometry leans itself towards optimum vision and comfort. Integration Orbea have gone to great lengths to include other features in the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 frame to enhance the enjoyment of the bike and improve its aesthetics. Fully integrated cable routing creates a simpler, much more clean look, with only the very bare minimum necessary on show. The low-drain high output integrated lights are also internally wired, and automatically come on when the bike is powered up. The 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 EQ models also feature an extra high/low beam headlight in additional to the standard equipment daytime running lights. Lightweight Weighing as much as 10kg less than similar styles bikes using a crank drive system, the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 is easily manoeuvrable both on and off the bike and makes carving through traffic and busy areas a breeze. Its quick, playful handling, responsive motor and strong hydraulic brakes allow immediate changes of direction in complete confidence. Extended range The 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 models have a theoretical range of up to 80 miles, however this depends on how efficient the rider is, and how much the rider relies on the higher power modes. For those who want to venture further, a handy bolt on Mahle X35 Range Extender option is available, almost doubling the bikes assistance range. 2023 Orbea Vibe EQ or Non-EQ? All of the 2023 Orbea Vibe models are available as either an "EQ" or "Non-EQ" model. You'll find them styled as "2023 Orbea Vibe H30" and "2023 Orbea Vibe H30 EQ". Which to go for depends on your riding style and intended use of the bike. The non-EQ is naturally the lighter of the two. Still equipped with front and rear daytime running lights, it offers all of the normal riding essentials for those who tend to carry anything on their bike and aren't afraid of a bit of mud or water. The EQ models offer all of the same specification of the non-EQ, but with the addition of a set of all-alloy mudguards (specifically made by Orbea just for the Vibe models), a pannier rack, an extra high-low beam headlight and a side stand. Its worthwhile considering your intended use of the bike carefully prior to purchase. While its possible to get the side stand separately, Orbea don't offer the mudguards and rack as post-sale accessories and you'll need to rely on aftermarket products which never look quite as sleek! Although a few hundred pounds more, that EQ does represent very good value when you consider the individually cost of the extra components if you're ever likely to get the use from them. 2023 Orbea Vibe Crossbar, or Mid? As with the EQ/non-EQ option, the 2023 Orbea Vibe models are also offered in both crossbar and mid-frame frame choices. A very much personal choice, there is no right or wrong answer on which to go for. The smaller frames will struggle with the addition of a water bottle or the option of a range extender, but the Mid frame option does provide a significant amount of extra stand over height which is really useful if you have short legs and even when on the right size bike, find the crossbar being uncomfortable close when stopped or getting on/off the bike! 2023 Orbea Vibe models Here at E-Bikeshop, we choose to only stock the Orbea Vibe H30 variants. Another (the Vibe H10) is available, however we believe that the H30 offers better value and better suits the needs of almost all compatible riders without the need to spend more money on things they might not use. 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 The most commonly sold version of the Orbea Vibe model range, the Vibe H30 is incredibly versatile and is the lightest weight option of all of the model variants. Learn more about the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30. 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 EQ Everything from the non-EQ version, but with the addition of Orbea's own alloy mudguards, pannier rack, side stand and extra high/low beam headlight. Learn more about the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 EQ. 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 Mid The 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 Mid is exactly the same specification as the Crossbar, but with a much lower crossbar. Great for those who like to pop themselves forward off the saddle when stopping or getting on an off the bike. Learn more about the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 Mid. 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 EQ Mid Again mirroring the specification of the ordinary Mid version of the 2023 Orbea Vibe, the EQ model also offers the addition of a set of alloy mud guards, pannier rack, side stand and extra high/low beam headlight. Learn more about the 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 EQ Mid. Which 2023 Orbea Vibe H30 will you buy this year? Whether you're commuting, looking to increase your distance or just pop to the shops there is an Orbea Vibe for you. You can find all of our options on the dedicated page for the 2023 Orbea Vibe Electric Bikes.
Possibly the best hard tail mountain bike range ever? The Cube Reaction Hybrid eMTB returns for 2024 with new drive systems, smarter technology and a bonkers price point to squeeze its competitors so hard their eyes will water. Again. It's next to impossible to fault the Cube Reaction Hybrid model range. Year after year it rolls back into dealers having been sold out for months and is always even better looking, offers more toys and a carries a price tag which really makes them the hardest bike to say no to when you compare them to their other Bosch driven competitors. Which 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid is the best for you and your riding this year? Along with the entirety of Cube's offering each year, the Reaction Hybrid isn't just one bike. The Reaction Hybrid name covers a mind-boggling range, from entry level, right up to pro level specifications and in up to 6 sizes, two frame styles and in some cases multiple colour options. Their most wide reaching model, the 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid actually has a truly bonkers 492 unique options in the range. When selecting your new 2024 Reaction, its worth weighing up the components fitted to the bike, against your planned riding use. If you are new to riding or only cover very light tracks and trails around your local areas, the Performance model would be absolutely perfect. If you ride rougher terrain or often travels to one of the UKs numerous trail centres to take advantage of the more technical riding on offer, the more expensive models will offer you more in the way of power, gears, brakes and suspension tuning ability. What's the difference between the Reaction Hybrid Performance, Pro, and Race models? When buying a 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid, everyone will be "starting" at the same point. The frame, regardless of model, is pretty much identical across the whole model range. Its what's attached to the frame in the form of its components which make up the difference in performance, and therefore price. The models follow the same naming convention each year. Starting at the entry level option, the Reaction Hybrid Performance is cheapest and comes with a 625Wh battery as its largest option. The range then jumps to the use of Bosch's brand new 750Wh batteries and moves through the Reaction Hybrid One, Pro, Race, SLX and finally the SLT. As you go up through the models, the drive system (motor, battery and controller), brakes, gears and suspension increase in performance level and so the price of the complete bike increases alongside. When picking which models to stock each year, we're very mindful of the level of components fitted vs the price of the bike and try to cater to as many riders as we possibly can, leaving out the more niche options. This means that regardless of which option you decide to buy, it was already handpicked by our ebike expert team for its performance against its value proposition. You'll notice that for 2024 we chose not to stock the SLX or SLT models. This is not because they're a bad bike - like the rest of the range, they're actually fantastic. A little too fantastic unfortunately, but the price point matches the specification. The only reason we choose not to stock them is because their price point overlaps with Cubes own 2024 Stereo Hybrid full suspension electric bike models and with the SLT model costing £4,499, we think that riders with over £4k burning a hole would be get better value from spending £100 less and buying the Cube Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC Pro or, for just a few hundred pounds more, the Cube Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC Race. ePowered by Bosch. Based in Germany, Cube are an exclusively Bosch driven brand. Turning out more than several thousand bikes a day means that having a single drive manufacturer dramatically simplifies production and if you're going to pick just one, you can be sure that they picked another German company to make sure their bikes are not only the best value on the market, but they're also the most reliable. Widely considered the closest to infallible, the Bosch drive systems can be found in many top manufacturers bikes and are favoured for their ease of use, integration and outstanding reliability record. While the 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid Performance uses the 625Wh battery, all other 2024 Cube Reaction variants will be taking advantage of the newest Bosch 750Wh battery and the complete "Smart System" software package which combined with the new Bosch eBike Flow app, now allows for over the air software updates. 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid models. For 2024, we've handpicked the Performance, Pro and Race models to offer the best level of value and components to cover almost any type of riding from light tracks and trails, gravel, hard-pack and paved roads to some the UKs best trail centres, the 2024 Cube Reaction model line offers someone for every type of mixed surface rider. Cube Reaction Hybrid Performance 500 & 625 2024 The 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid Performance comes in two versions. One with a 500Wh battery and the other with a 625Wh and is now the entry level model in the Reaction range but comes feature packed to support riders new and old, fast or slow. The newly updated Bosch Performance Line motor now offers an increased 75Nm of torque fed by a 625Wh battery for up to 140 miles of assisted riding. Coupled with its Shimano 9 speed gearing and MT200 brakes, its a solid performing bike for those who don't need all the bells and whistles. Head over to the product page for the full specification, more images and to purchase the 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid Performance 500 and 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid Performance 625. Cube Reaction Hybrid Pro 625 & 750 2024 Only one step up in the model line, the 2024 Cube Reaction Hybrid Pro sees a huge jump in specification. Fitted with Bosch's most powerful Generation 4 85Nm motor, 750Wh battery and the LED Remote display, it has bags of torque and enough juice to power you through up to 160 miles of assisted riding. Its also the first in the model line to benefit from fully adjustable air suspension, Shimano 11 speed group set and twin piston hydraulic Shimano MT200 brakes.
