I took my bike in for its free first service the other day and they gave me a print out of the data the computer stores. I was surprised to see how many miles I had done with no assistance from the battery. Here are the stats: Turbo mode 58.7 ml Sport (EMTB) mode 73.1 ml Tour mode 62.9 ml...

I was talking to a mechanic in my LBS this morning and he told me that the standard battery should be good for 50 miles in Eco mode. Those of you who have one of these bikes, would you agree with his estimate?

I am thinking of getting one too. A mate of mine has recently bought one and he really likes it. I have started doing a fair bit of off road stuff and some of the surfaces are really bad.

I bought my Cube around the 4th of May so a couple of weeks after you I think. It sounds like fitting a new speed sensor has sorted out the problem. I had similar problem to you as I mentioned earlier in this thread, and a new speed sensor seems to have sorted out my problems too. I wonder if...

Mine came on the other day think it was at around the 250 miles mark.

Did my first longish ride yesterday, and was really impressed with battery longevity. We did 51 miles on a mixture of cycle tracks and small back roads, decent surfaces but a lot of hills. One of my mates had one of those garmin devices that give the amount of climbing we did. It was just...

I would change them, you have had nearly 18 months and 3700 miles out of them, that's pretty good going.

Was there a very similar thread to this recently? I've had a quick look to see if I can find it and I can't so I am starting to worry if I have dreamt it lol. If anyone knows which thread I am talking about can you put a link to it.

I have had similar experiences but not quite as bad as yours with the bosch CX motor, but only when using turbo mode. So now I either do what you do ie don't apply any pedal pressure until I want to move, or more usually make sure I am not in turbo mode when stopped at a junction.

I had the bike back from the shop yesterday with a new sensor, cable and display unit fitted. Did around a dozen miles on it last night and it worked perfectly so (touch wood) it is now sorted. I have been using an unassisted bike for the last week or so, and had virtually forgotten how much...

Is your speed sensor working correctly. Mine has been playing up (its getting replaced at the moment), but when it was playing up it was causing the motor to surge at times just as you describe. My bike is a Cube too with a CX motor.

I don't know the answer to your question, but I agree with you that using Facebook chat does not seem a reliable method of reservation. What do people do (like myself) who do not use Facebook, is there an alternative method?

The bike has gone in today to have a new speed sensor and Purion display unit fitted. The shop had tried adjusting the magnet and re-installing the software but it was the same as before. It would work fine for a while but then suddenly start playing up. I used my unassisted mountain bike...

No I've got the Purion display unfortunately.

Good video georgehenry. I like looking at the old British bikes, but I don't like working on them. So I have a modern Triumph Sprint GT, doesn't have all the bells and whistles of some of the newish bikes around nowadays. It was a lot cheaper than most of those though. The off road stuff...

I did this today, seemed to be working fine. Went out for a ride around 10 miles, made sure I used all gears and all the modes, worked perfectly. Then on the way home I was doing around 14 to 15 mph in tour mode on the flat, not putting much pressure on the pedals it suddenly started playing...

Thanks for this I will have a look later to see if there is some kind of mark. I haven't noticed one so far, but my eye sight is not brilliant so I shall put my glasses on and try again.

Cheers soundwave, I think I shall probably wait until I can take it in next week. I have a non assist mountain bike that I can use for short fairly flat rides, certainly wont be going up any steep hills on it.

I've got a problem with my bike. A couple of times since I bought it the speedo has suddenly stopped working, but within a few seconds it has come back on again and so I haven't really thought too much about it. Anyway today it happened again but this time an error message came up which I...

Seems strange if they are roughly the same price why don't they put a qr/lever on the front one too, that would avoid having to take an allen key with you incase you have a puncture in the front tire.
