New Cube Fold Hybrid Could Be The Ultimate Commuter E-Bike
German bike brand Cube has launched its newest model, the Fold Hybrid, designed for all-around usage within the city.

There already are folding e-bikes, and these things cost over $3,000. A perfect commuter e-bike would cost less than a grand.
Yeah but Cube tho
Are Cube supposed to be good? I've always seen them as a trash budget brand.
They are literally being used to ride the tour de france. What made cube great was that their sub €1000 bikes were not trash and quite durable component wise. 10 years ago they offered quality aluminium MTB's with front suspension and shimano groupsets for €700. Now most premium brands offer quality entry level bikes though. I own 2 cube bikes and they have been going strong for 9 and 5 years with proper home care and one dealer service each year
Ah fair enough, wasn't trying to shit on them that was just my perspective, happy to change my mind if they are in fact decent quality for the price :)
To be fair a lot of the entry level stuff these days is a lot better than it used to be which I think is great to get more people riding bikes on equipment that won't just fall apart within a year of use!
They are in my experience always great value for money. My first carbon road bike was made by them and was actually pretty great.
