It looks like that should fit, though without actually trying it you can't be sure. I got one of these on a deal for 25 euros and have been very happy with it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0773JF5BR/ref=twister_B07ZZSJ4JV?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 It's big enough to carry all I need for a most day...

Only just seen this. I got Ortlieb Backroller Plus panniers. Have had no issues with them and they fit well.

It seems that there can be variation in the same unit without there being anything identifiably wrong with the motor. See this thread about the older version of the motor in which one of two motors is also identified as sounding like a milk float...

I'm 6ft 1' and I've got a 54cm Cube Touring Hybrid which is good for me. I've also tried a 50cm, which was okay - perhaps not the optimum size (was looking at one for my wife) but perfectly rideable. I suspect the 58 cm would be okay too, but 54cm is probably best for me. Re. the equivalent MTB...

My wife is looking at getting a bike and is considering the latest version of the bike I have - a Cube Touring Hybrid Pro. I see that this year's model has the latest Bosch Performance Line Cruise motor in place of the Active Line Plus, which is on mine (and also on the cheaper 2020 Touring...

I went out on a ride yesterday only for the front socket to detach from the crankset. Sod's law meant it happened the furthest distance from our house and I was forced to walk uphill and coast downhill over the 7 kms back. Prior to this there was little warning. Yes, there was sometimes...

Thanks all for your suggestions. Look forward to hearing how you get on Andy. I've been restricting myself to assistance only on ascents too when I'm on long trips. I reckon ideally, round here where you can easily clock up 1500m of ascents, I could do with a 600w battery. Although, if I had...

What with all the ascents over here I have to be relatively careful about how far I go on a trip. I did 70kms the other day with up to about 1500ms in ascents and still had just about enough juice to still feel comfortable on my return. I guess about 80kms would be about the limit with my...

I get roughly the same with the same battery/motor combination. Mine fell off the bike when I turned it upside down to make an adjustment after returning from the shop after buying it (the lock isn't very secure - not sure if this is just mine or they're all like this, though I suspect the...

The Ortliebs work fine. Only used once, but they seem firmly connected via the hooks at the top and the adjustable bar that hooks round the frame by the wheel.

Thanks for the feedback, both. Will try out that magnet and see if it works.

Does anybody know if this will work to take as a back up for a Bosch magnet? https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000OYFENU/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&psc=1

My inside leg is 35". I've got the cross bar version. Good point about getting your leg over (fnar fnar:-)!) - I really wouldn't want any more height in that regard especially.

I'm 6' 1" (186cms) and I've got the 54cm Hybrid Touring Pro. I'm at the upper limit of the recommended frame size (those between 180-193cms are recommended 54-58cm frames) but I find it absolutely fine.

Thanks for the feedback, both. I've ordered some Ortliebs to try them out - I can always send them back if they don't fit. The 'rack' on the Cube Touring is quite unusual - good from the point of view of stability but not so good when it doesn't accommodate some common pannier systems. Andy -...

I was in a similar position to you a few weeks back - it's up and down all around here (Haute Savoie, France). Ended up getting a bike recommended above - a Cube Touring Hybrid Pro. This has the Bosch Active Line+ motor. I was concerned that it might not be enough to get me up hills in comfort...

Didn't even need a soft hammer - slipped off with ease once I'd loosened the grip screw. Doh! Thanks for your advice.

I am looking for panniers for a Cube Touring. The hook that you describe on the Cube panniers looks pretty similar to those on Ortlieb panniers using their QL2.1 system (eg. here: https://www.ortlieb.com/us/back-roller-urban-line). Were Ortlieb panniers one of the ones you tried but which didn't...

I can see the handlebar between the plug and the grip, so no.
