After a two week disaster with a Carrera Crossfire, basically lots of electric cutouts and a refund from Halfords. I have now ordered a Cube 400 touring. Really looking forward to this bike arriving next week sometime. After watching and reading lots of reviews I'm hoping this bike will be more reliable than the crossfire.

Was that a new Crossfire just recently? They had a terrible reputation a year or so ago, and it wasn't clear if the new lot has resolved things. It looks as if there are still issues?

I'm sure you'll enjoy the Cube.

Yes it was the new 2020 bike, they haven't fixed the problems, its such a shame because for the price it could be a really nice bike. I could never recommend one to anybody.

Anti Bosch i thought they were meant to be great. Don't tell me there are fanboys of different electric motor manufacturers on here surely not.
Surely yes, I have had a Crossfire (terrible cut outs) and have a Crossfuse ( brilliant) with Bosch motor, I am sure you will get on great with the Cube.

If Bosch brought out a 1000w hub motor coupled to a 48v battery...

Just got a Cube Elly Ride 400 for my wife. She is absolutely in love with it and pushes to ride it everyday (we are observing strict lockdown conditions, but take the children on a daily 8 to 10 mile ride). The bike seems beautifully built. I hope you have a lot of fun with your new Cube when it arrives!

If you have any queries, this is a great place to come!
