I'll check them now....good idea.....thanks.

Haven't but will...they seem to get great reviews.

What company is that Insurance with mate?

Really....3 locks....crikey.... I might rethink

Update. Had my Cube reaction hybrid pro 500 5 weeks. No problems at all once I had ironed out the pre delivery woes from the apathetic store I got it from. 260 miles and I love the thing. Mostly doing cycle routes,old railways etc but some roads so have front and rear lights,bright ones so I'm seen a little bit better. Wish I'd got a full suspension bike as at speed some trails bounce me about but as a £2000 bike as it is I'm in no way disappointed. I am doing 25/30 mile trips and still having three bars left though I'm not using turbo or emtb much mostly tour and using the smooth shifting gears a lot so figure on a range of 40+ or 25 ish in the woods climbing more. The bike is very heavy but this is not noticed on the move but steps and styles etc are awkward. Brakes strong the whole thing works wonderfully as you might expect for the price but it puts me in places I thought my poorly knees wouldn't take me and like my old Alfa I like looking at the cube...it looks cool,goes great and at 0% finance well they are giving it away for free.

I only leave mine to nip in a shop and get a drink or a bar but also do a lot of photography where I do leave it a bit so I've done my reasearch and Have decided on a Litelok wearable!

I will. Three charges and no more than mid 30’s is not long enough for me! Yes I do know someone I could ask...I will post results.

I’ve had mine a week and never been off it. It’s got me back pedalling for the first time in years and I’m loving it more than I even thought. Bought the 19 frame but thought it felt cramped so swooped for 21 which is bigger but feels better. Going to invest in a litelok belt lock coz I’m petrified someone is going to try to nick it!!

Crikey I go out on a ride and come back to this Thanks for the great replies Ok so just done 33 miles on the Derwent walk 16.5 up and when I say up it’s a very gentle incline tea and sausage sarnie then turn round and come back flat or slightly down hill. Used mostly tour occasionally emtb and downhill eco or off...never turbo. It lost a bar after 5 miles then another after 10 then a third after another 10 so figure I have 1.5 left It is saying 8/9/11 left so range looks like 40 on a very light run. Was expecting more as the bloke in the bike shop was quoting much higher figures Maybe it will improve after a few more charges. Right I’m going to read that mathematical reply again Cheers everyone

Just found this thread after a week with my Cube with Cx performance 500 and two runs of around 30 miles and I’m really disappointed with the range. Mostly old railway paths so no big climbs and not on turbo at all pedalling with purpose must of the time. Just charged it Turbo 24 emtb 27 tour 38 miles Not impressed

I didn't get the race just the hybrid pro 500. In black/grey. It's so pretty it's staying in my office not the garage

Yes...wildo...three knee ops for me and not really ridden for 3/4 years so this is a gamble. My wife will kick me out when she finds out I've spent 2k

Ordered a Reaction 500 today from Evans. Bought an old bike off gumtree for £10 and so got £200 off rest on 24 months 0%. Upgraded the pedals and it's coming next week. Love the look of it and hope my dodgy knees and iffy hip will not complain too much as chant wait to get back to what I did a few years ago.

Thanks I'll dig deeper into the specs especially fork...makes sense.Thanks for the replies.
