Overview
E-bike Cube Aruba Hybrid 600 Easy Entry
Chic and good-looking it may be, but the Aruba Hybrid's design detail is every bit as cool. Our PowerTube design incorporates the 600Wh Bosch battery inside the frame for miles of worry-free pedalling, and its head-turning elegance is finished with our Smooth Welding technique for an organic flow to the frame's lines. We fitted a 1.5in head tube because it's strong, safe and improves steering accuracy for easy, intuitive handling. There's a semi-integrated luggage carrier, and Easy Entry does exactly what it says, making access simple for any rider. And everything is colour-coded, because obviously.
The Aruba Hybrid is the environmentally friendly Bosch-powered e-bike to appeal to your inner fashionista, but its beauty is far more than skin deep. The Easy Entry frame is comfortable to ride, with a practical step-through design that's ideal for everyday use and won't cramp your style. The sturdy carrier is a handy way to carry whatever you need with you. The chain guard, mudguards, lighting system and kickstand mean you're all set for any eventuality. And, of course, the powerful Bosch Performance motor and low maintenance Shimano 5-speed hub gears make light work of any journey, backed up by strong and dependable Shimano hydraulic disc brakes to help keep you safe in any weather.
Technologies
Gear and brake cables need a way to get from handlebar controls to frame – but what if there was no need for holes near the head tube? We came up with a design that takes cables into the frame via the headset, maintaining full internal cable routing but making it even neater and less obtrusive.
CUBE's Aluminium Superlite starts with heat-treated 6061 aluminium, which has the qualities – high fatigue resistance, good stiffness, low weight and excellent strength – that are important for a bicycle frame. Then we make it into double butted tubes, to reduce weight without sacrificing any of its strength. The result? Exceptionally light, strong and tough frames.
As you might expect, our Comfort Ride Geometry delivers maximum comfort on two wheels. Because after all, who doesn't want a comfortable ride? We sweated the details of frame angles and dimensions to create a natural-feeling ride position and the ideal combination of stability and agility, so you not only feel comfortable but safe, too.
The Fully Integrated Battery system tucks the power of Bosch's battery out of sight, safely inside the confines of your bike's downtube. Hidden beneath a splash and dust-proof cover and secured with a lock to prevent theft, it allows us to design beautiful e-bike frames that are as brilliantly functional as they are good to look at.
In many ways the battery is the heart of an e-bike. That's why, with our Modular Battery System, we've made a setup that's easy to use. You can charge the battery on or off the bike, and we've made room for even high capacity batteries. You'll wonder how you ever managed without it.
A luggage carrier needn't be a complicated, ugly addition to your bike. Our Semi-Integrated Carrier is so neat, you'll barely notice it... until it's time to carry something back from the shops, or ride to work, or nip across town to fetch something. Sturdy and adaptable, it's just what you need to make day-to-day life a little easier.
Smooth Welding isn't easy, but worthwhile things usually aren't. It has two advantages. First, and most obviously, it looks great: one tube seems to almost flow into the other. Second, and at least as importantly, it helps to minimise load peaks on welded areas for better frame strength and durability.
