    Cycling Jacket

    Hi there, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a quality hi-viz waterproof cycling jacket for commuting that has particularly long sleeves. I have long arms and can't seem to find a jacket that comes down to the hands when I am stretched out. Thanks

    Handlebar Extension

    Thank you all for your advice and suggestions. I am going to take it to the local bike shop for them to 'fit me out' properly on it. I didn't know if I could do a DIY job on it first though but in light of all your advice, I don't think I have the knowledge or practical skills sadly! Before I...

    Handlebar Extension

    Hi everyone, I recently bought a Cube Hybrid Touring e-bike and am absolutely loving it. However I (stupidly) bought the wrong sized frame (58 instead of 62) so would like to raise/extend the handlebars to prevent muscle soreness in my shoulders on long rides. There are a myriad of stem/riser...

    Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Pro 500

    Thanks Rob, that’s really helpful tip. Will invest! Any hints/tips/products out there for keeping the Bosch intuvia display protected from the elements? I’m assuming it’s showerproof but surely it’ll not like torrential downpours which seem to be becoming the norm. Good old fashioned sandwich...

    Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Pro 500

    Hi I went for the 58cm in the end as the wait time was so long on the 62cm. It seems to fit fine! There are screws missing where the bottle cage should be mounted - stupid question but shouldn't there be screws supplied with bike to avoid water getting in?

    Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Pro 500

    I have just come back from test riding the Hybrid Pro and also the Kathmandu 625 - both gorgeous bikes. I'm 6ft 6ins and was advised in the shop to go for the 58 frame, not the largest 62. Apparently the largest frame sizes are aimed at very (more than 6ft 6) tall Germans and Dutch riders - does...

    Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Pro 500

    Hi Phil, can I ask why you’re selling? That’s I’m looking at but local bike shop says it’s v heavy.

    Long Levers - Help Please!

    Thanks Rob. Definitely a flat bar and it's interesting what you say about the Orbea motor - it looks like this is the same (ebikemotion) that is the Ribble Hybrid which is a gorgeous looking bike. But, as you say, it may not get me up the hills without some degree of effort in my work clothes...

    Long Levers - Help Please!

    Hi everyone, I'm looking to buy an e-bike for my 20ish mile round commute which is mostly flat with a couple of hills thrown in. Budget-wise, I'm thinking £1500 - £2500 but to purchase through the Cyclescheme. I have started looking online but have become instantly bamboozled by the options. One...
