Cube Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC SLX 750 2023 - Electric Mountain Bike

The business! Nice and burly for the downs and drops (6.5inc rear travel + long wheelbase makes it very stable), but also a great climber as v. light (carbon frame). With pro-pedal, maverick speedball seat post (yes it has huuuge amount of play in it) and rockshox lyrics coil (air 2 steps failed 3 times so have finally given up), I'm using this for both XC and DH, I just use 2 different wheelsets). Still in love.

clearly you've never ridden one. Therefore don't bother rating it.

Great all do it all ride, i toyed with getting one of these but went for the new Meta 5.5 instead. Any issues with the rear shock yet?
big_tex_uk replied... on 18 May 2009
what did you prefer on the Ransom to the Meta then. I know a couple of people with Ransoms and they creaking worried me.
carochauvin replied... on 28 January 2009
Thanks. No issues whatsoever with rear shock, after 6 months of abuse... Tried the Meta 5.5 too, but it wasn't for me.. Happy ridin'

I still can't figure out the way the suspension works...so for that alone a 10. Bet it absolutly bombs!
carochauvin replied... on 19 January 2009
If you're asking re: rear shock, one flick of the switch closes one air chamber, another flick closes another. That's as techy as I can get!! Yeah, it really goes when the rider isn't scared.. Making me do things I'd never thought myself capable of. Speedball great, feel very smug when everyone is stopping to adjust seat and I just ride past, dropping or lifting to my hearts' content :-) Think Crank Bros do their version too, called the Joplin, have you tried them for size?
ashley_photog replied... on 18 January 2009
Love to try one of those speed ball seat's but they don't do them small enough for my Yeti.
