About the Cube Reaction Hybrid Performance

Most use a mid-mounted motor at the cranks, which keeps weight low and central and makes the bike feel closer to an ordinary mountain bike on technical ground. Closest alternatives by price: Trek Marlin+ 6 Hardtail ($3,899), Merida eBig.Nine 400 ($3,999) and Giant Talon E+ 29er ($3,299).

The battery is normally built into the frame and the motor responds to pedal effort, so the harder you push the more help you receive within the chosen mode. Steady assistance can give traction and momentum on loose or rooty climbs where an unassisted bike would stall, which appeals to riders developing technical skills.

Cube has 6 products listed, from $2,699 to $8,299.
