The Cross Hybrid EXC 500 has confidence-inspiring handling and being a hybrid it is built to be durable and tough, even if you never venture off the road and onto the dirt. That's why it is built with features like double butted aluminium superlite tubes and a tapered head tube, for extra strength and reduced weight. The Schwalbe Smart Sam tyres have the grip to handle a range of surfaces and the SR Suntour suspension fork will handle all the bumps. While the powerful Shimano hydraulic disc brakes deliver plenty of all-weather stopping power, giving you the ultimate control even in the toughest conditions. While a full set of mudguard and rack mounts means you can easily add the accessories you need for everyday use.
The Cube EXC 500 E-Hybrid is a versatile bike that can be used to commute or get out on dirt paths and test out what a bike with a bit of assistance can do in the wild. While it is not built to take on the roughest trails, it certainly gives you the confidence to take on bumps and gutters found in urban riding, and some trail shortcuts you might find to make your life easier. An e-hybrid can help you go further and faster, making your life easier and more fun. You won’t be disappointed with the versatility and reliability of the Cube EXC 500 and the Bosch e-bike parts.
Features
Easy Mount Kickstand: The Easy Mount Kick Stand is a new system developed by CUBE, in which the base of the stand is mounted from below to a fitting plate integrated to the frame and fixed with a through bolt. This makes the kick stand extremely stiff, stable and solid through the enlarged contact areas between base and frame.
Wet Paint Surface: On polished, brushed aluminium and all HPC frames, the logos and graphics are applied in multi-layer wet paint to save weight.
Frame Safe System: To protect our frames the mounting thread is in the hanger and not in the frame as usual. In case of a crash, this hanger can be easily and quickly replaced by a new one.
Integrated Cable Routing: Cables are protected from dirt for longer life and weight is saved as there is no external housing and the bike has a clean, sleek appearance.
Agile Ride Geometry: We increased fork offsets to achieve the same trail as our 26in bikes without having to steepen the head angle. Secondly we shortened the chain stays without compromising the seat angle and invented a patented construction to mount the front derailleur to increase tyre clearance while keeping a conventional seat angle, for a perfect riding position. We kept the BB height the same as on our 26in bikes. These measures lead to a natural riding position.
Advanced Mechanical Forming: We can mechanically transform different frame tubes and thus optimise them without material-wearing welding work for the respective requirements. Along the obtained organic look, the production method is primarily to enable us to manufacture lighter and also stiffer aluminum frames.
Aluminium Lite: 6061 aluminium alloy requires a heat treatment for the finished product. It is a stiff, corrosion resistant, fatigue resistant,high-elongation material suitable for light tubesets with high stiffness.
Optimal Drive Position: CUBE developed an innovative new frame construction for the new Ebike generation: simultaneously being the cradle for the electric motor, the pivot for the rear link and the seat of the shock eyelet, the very complex area of the bottom bracket is made of two forged halves. The groove in the front section together with the specially formed down tube is home for the power pack which in this way has a very low position in the frame triangle. The positive outcome is an extremely low center of gravity supporting an agile riding characteristic while achieving a super rigid bottom bracket area.
Wet Paint Surface: On polished, brushed aluminium and all HPC frames, the logos and graphics are applied in multi-layer wet paint to save weight.
Smooth Welded: This elaborate procedure with doubled weld seams has two advantages: On the one hand, it improves the firmness of the weld seams and minimizses the load peaks on the tube welds through energy flow and on the other hand, it helps the frame to a better and more organic look due to the smooth and hardly noticeable welds.
