Cube shows first 29er bikes - one is even electrified

After the AMS line was given a major visual and technical overhaul for the current year, the next model year is set to be a big one. Cube is entering the 29er fully market with the "AMS 120 29". Following the successful launch of the EPO series, the electric bike is now also available as a 29er version.

The aim was to get as close as possible to the "AMS 130" in terms of handling with the "AMS 120 29". The new bike should be just as drive-neutral and downhill capable as its little brother. Under the project name Cube 29, the Germans have focused heavily on the 29er philosophy and developed the ARG (Agile Ride Geometry). Thanks to special suspension forks, short head tube and chainstays and a low bottom bracket - all features of the ARG - Cube is convinced that it has achieved its goal. This combines the positive characteristics of large bikes with the proven features of 26-inch bikes. As the name suggests, the bike has 120 millimeters of travel at the front and rear and comes in PRO and RACE versions. The four-link is also technically on a par with the competition. Tapered head tube, thru-axles at both ends (RACE only) and internally routed shift cables are evidence of this. The latter, together with the no-frills layout, give the bike a clean, simple look.

29er under power
Following the successful introduction of the "EPO" for the current model year, the electric bike is now also being put on big wheels. Cube is one of the few, if not the only manufacturer to present a production-ready electric 29er. The final tests with the "EPO 29" have only recently been completed and the company is confident that it will be able to present a final model at Eurobike.
