KPBC @ Rosedale

It’s November 11th, it’s cold, it’s been typically wet for weeks so what do you do at 7am on a Saturday? Go for a bike ride on moors of course!! 🙂
The plan was to start atCropton Brewery, then head up Sutherland road (Bridleway) onto the top of the moors and then descend down into Rosedale. After that, there was a monster climb back onto the moors and then descend back down Lastingham ridge.
It didn’t quite work out as planned!

Full credit for ploughing through. Well done! Looking forward to more footage.

What i find so annoying is I've never had an ebike I've ordered my first the cube same as yours but not a clue on how they work and there is no video's actually showing how these work with the motor's its like you should know haha! I have seen one 10 second video of the chain ring doing a quarter turn on its own so that's all I know maybe you could make a video showing the way they actually work im sure it'll be more than just me looking for this type of video! It would be great to see how they work exactly I've had to actually buy one to find out crazy lol

Hi sorry for the delayed response. It’s an interesting point you make! As you say, not everyone understands how an electric motor works, and some can feel quite different to others. All I can say is, you have to ride one to find out! I started by hiring an e-bike and doing a demo day by Trek on the full power motor vs the super light motor to gauge the difference for myself. So glad I did as I was adamant I wanted the SL but after the demo I realised it wasn’t for me. I just wish the big brands did more demo day’s especially in a wider range across the country as they always seem to focus on the same areas that are not always easily accessible by everyone.

Hi there I've be trying to ask a couple questions on the cube action team 160 you got i ordered mine yesterday just wondering does it come with peddles and are they rubbish or not to bad? And the grips i will be changing don't like orange but the bikes so well specked for the price be nice if they gave an option of the black or orange 38 forks! the reviews have been good to watch happy new year

Hi! Sorry for the delay in responding. The peddles it comes with are naff and you should replace them with what is your preferred peddles. It’s not usually expensive to do that. The contact points between you and your bike are very important! (Grips and peddles).
I wasn’t a fan of the orange fox forks at first but they are actually really nice in the flesh. The colour doesn’t bother me now at all, really like them as they are not the norm.
