Description
This bike is fitted with the latest generation Bosch Performance CX (Gen5) engine and Bosch PowerTube battery.
The Reaction Hybrid Pro 800 combines mountain bike versatility with Bosch-powered ease of use and CUBE design know-how. Tackle any route, off-road or on, with ease thanks to an 800 Wh battery and smooth, quiet Bosch CX drive. Combined with Shimano's easy-to-use XT 12-speed gears, it's all you need to comfortably ride any hill. For coming back down the other side, we fitted powerful Shimano hydraulic disc brakes and grippy Schwalbe 2.6in tyres. There's also an air-sprung fork with 120mm of travel (100mm for small frame sizes and for all Easy Entry models), and a remote dropper seatpost for extra comfort and control on rougher trails. It's got it all – the rest is up to you.
Frame description
We call this frame Easy Entry because that's exactly what it does, but there's more to the Reaction Hybrid than just an elegantly practical design. With the 800 Wh PowerTube battery neatly concealed and the Bosch CX drive housed securely, its svelte lines disguise lots of clever features. It's PowerMore-ready, making it easy to add up to 250 Wh of extra battery capacity. The integrated seat clamp and cable routing complement the clean aesthetic, whilst a UDH gear hanger makes it as future-proof as possible. There's a built-in chainguide mount too, and it's also ready to accept ACID mudguards. And there are sizes to cater for most riders. We've thought of everything, so you can just ride.
- 85 Nm torque, 600 W max power, up to 340% assistance
- Up to 600 g lighter system weight (motor and battery) than the previous version
- Higher energy-density PowerTube batteries: 600 or 800 Wh
- Quieter while coasting and pedaling
- New Hill Hold system and Extended Boost for technical climbs
