2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike test review build quality

The 2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike is a well-made bike, it lacks none of everything you really need and has an excellent value for money.

The range of assemblies is good, while the color range is limited, as is the range of sizes.

However, everything is considered in the list price, which is very convenient, but the proposed geometry is not always suitable for the cyclist.

All in all, a well-made mtb e-bike with an honest price.

2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike test review Frame

The frame of the 2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike is very well made, specific for this range of e-mtb, even if not very light.

The test version, HPC Race 750 2023 2024 model, weighs more than 24 kg, but the list price of just under 5 thousand euros is practically unbeatable with its technical characteristics.

As always, we believe that with these weights an aluminum frame would have gone just fine.

A nice frame with modern geometries, well made and with good suspension.

Even without excelling in anything, it is a competitive product with the best competitors.

2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike test review Assemblies

The range of assemblies is complete, wide and suitable for all economic needs.

There isn't a wide range of colors or sizes, but everything must be seen in relation to the list price, which is always very competitive.

The components chosen are valid, but extensive use is made of Cube components, however valid.

Bosch motor and battery are always safe, the rest of the components are more than good.

The top on the market, once the suspensions are well calibrated there is nothing to complain about.

There's nothing else to add, at most you can customize the saddle.

Stop.

2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike test review Guide

The 2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike is a very intuitive, easy to ride, sincere electric bicycle.

Excellent for those new to e-mtbs, it is an electric bicycle also valid for those who are more experienced.

Very easy to ride on the flats, it is perfect when going downhill, very easy to handle, fast, with excellent dynamic performance.

At high speeds it requires a minimum of experience and driving ability, but it is always easily controllable.

Uphill you are greatly helped by the electric motor, you can feel the weight and the long travel of the suspension, the geometry still ensures valid rear wheel traction, with just light steering on the steepest climbs.

The fork and rear suspension work well, perhaps not so smooth, but still they are valid components.

Braking is good and safe.

Overall, driving is very easy and intuitive, you only have difficulty at high speeds and when you demand maximum performance from the chassis.

Considering the purchase price there are no substantial differences with other more expensive electric bicycles.

It gives its best on downhills, while it holds its own on flats and uphills.

A downhill ebike in which the electric motor helps you reach the summit with less effort.

2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike test review Performance

Even if the overall weight is not low, the overall performance is absolutely competitive.

The Bosch engine is an excellent guarantee for its thrust, even on the most difficult climbs and on the most technical sections.

Obviously the downhill performance is excellent, where there are no appreciable differences with other competitors, heavier or more expensive.

Good performance on the flats, where the only limit, in absolute terms, comes from the suspension travel, otherwise they are in line with all the other competitors.

Overall there are no substantial differences with other more expensive electric bicycles.

It weighs slightly more, it's true, but it's also true that, in reality, where competitors with double the cost go and how they go, this Cube also goes.

Ultimately its performances are more than valid and competitive with all similar competitors.

2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike test review Pros and cons

The 2024 Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 HPC Race 750 ebike proved to be a valid electric bicycle, despite not being particularly refined in its technical solutions.

It is not a light electric bicycle, but this limitation does not have an obvious impact on the performance.

This is one of its advantages, because despite being technically distant from other electric bicycles, it is true that in practice it is competitive against any competitor.

With 160mm suspension travel it remains a pure downhill ebike, there's no point in expecting performance on the flat or uphill.

The defects? limited sales network, few sizes available and little choice of colors for the frame.

But ultimately everything can be overlooked given the more than competitive price.
