Hi all. I've had my first ebike (a Cube Touring Hybrid ONE) for a year now, and have really enjoyed using it. However, a lot of my riding (in Devon, UK) includes some very steep roads and tracks, so I would like to get some better brakes. I wondered if I could 'simply' swap the calipers for...

Cheer Fat Rat. Yeah Paignton is nice. If you're down this way with your bike and fancy hooking up for a ride gimme a shout! I've got to know some really great routes.

Hi all. I recently bought my first ebike (Cube Touring Hybrid ONE) and I'm loving it. The motor certainly helps on the hills around here (South Devon and Dartmoor), and the rack means I've been able to be 'self sufficient' during lockdown.

I've had a Cube Touring Hybrid One 500 for 3 months (my first ebike) and I love it. Great range, quiet motor, comfy and stable ride, can carry plenty of gear on rack, good brakes, gears ok, good on and off road (light stuff). Very heavy but that's to be expected. I can highly recommend but it's...

:( Oops yeah sorry, that's what I meant.

Thanks for the reply Nealh. I'll pop down to the DIY store and take the battery (Yamaha powerpack 400) with me, so's I can get the right adapter. All I've got at home is a shaver plug.

Hi there, I've just bought a Lapierre ebike (for my missus) from a large UK online company. The bike came with the UK brake setup (left lever = rear wheel), but the charger has an EU plug and there is no adapter included. There is no mention of it having an EU plug on the website. I've emailed...
