2022 Med. Cube Reaction Pro with Bosch CX motor

Like new, lightly ridden 2022 Cube Reaction Pro E-Bike, tastefully upgraded with a 120mm Fox 34 Factory Step Cast fork. I purchased this bike from Bow Cycle in December, 2022 and have put 325 km on it - mostly road and paved path riding, plus one trip out to Bragg Creek to ride Bragging Rights and Merlin's View, where it performed quite admirably.

This bike is considered an entry level, yet trail worthy, electric mountain bike. There is a lot of value in this machine - the Bosch Performance CX motor is found on many high end trail machines made by Trek, Cannondale, Scott, and Orbea to name a few! Plus the Shimano Deore drivetrain is legitimately trail worthy and even comes with a clutched rear derailleur. If you are looking for a dependable electric trail bike that won't break the bank, then this Cube Reaction Pro may be just what you are looking for.

This particular Bosch motor was engineered for mountain bikes and has a few modes that other drive systems simply don't have. The modes include:

OFF - no power boost.
Economy - boosts your input by approximately 160%.
Tour - boosts rider input by approximately 240%.
EMTB - this is where things get AWESOME - this mode automatically adjusts between 0, 160, 240, and 360% boost, based on rider input.
TURBO - boosts rider input by, you guessed it, 360%.

PLUS - it has a "WALK" feature that powers the motor whenever you find yourself in a hike-a-bike situation, which is very helpful since this bike weighs in the 50 pound range.

In order to make it a true trail machine, I swapped the stock fork for a Fox 34 Factory Step Cast - 120mm - 51mm offset for 29” Wheels, Kabolt thru axle, FIT-4 damper, 15x110mm Boost and recently rebuilt by Ion2 Suspension. The extra 20mm of suspension really brought this bike to life on dirt, as did adding a dropper post (not included in this sale). I enjoyed my ride out at Bragg Creek so much that I decided to sell the Cube and pick up a Trek Rail because it uses the same Bosch Performance CX motor, and the Trek Active Braking Pivot design is my top choice to ride. I have owned two Remedys and a Session 88, so the Rail seems like the next logical step.

The asking price is fairly firm as the bike is in great shape (charged, tuned, cleaned and ready to ride once you bolt on your favorite pedals!), and the MSRP on the Fox fork was $1600 in 2020. If you pay the asking price I will toss in the stock X Fusion fork for free. This bike also comes with a factory kickstand.
