2017 CUBE NUTRAIL HYBRID 500 BLACK

True freedom can only be experienced when you're willing to try something completely new - and the Nutrail Hybrid is the perfect tool for the job. With 4.0 inch tyres and powerful Bosch CX drive it quite simply knows no limits, rolling on with nonchalent ease whether you're out in the sticks or in the thick of the urban jungle. This CUBE masterpiece - with an aluminium frame designed specifically around the needs of fat tyres and the Bosch drive system - contains all of our know-how and fastidious attention to detail. It's these high quality features that have produced a Fat e-bike that blends the fun factor with genuine everyday practicality.

We faced two challenges in designing the Nutrail Hybrid. On the one hand, we set out to build a peerless Fatbike that would be equally at home on the trails as it would be fun to ride, whether on an everyday basis or on longer adventures. And on the other, we needed to perfectly integrate the Bosch drive and all of its specific requirements. It wasn't easy, but we got there in the end by sweating the details. Triple butting, hydroforming and clever design make for a frame that's extremely light, with precision handling. The tapered head tube and 177mm rear axle provide even more rigidity. We positioned the drive and battery for optimum performance and this, combined with our Agile Ride Geometry, guarantees faultless handling. Luggage rack mounting points give the Nutrail extra practicality for day-to-day use. And, of course, we've used StealthReady to make it dropper post-friendly.

For limitless adventure and new experiences, the Bosch CX Drive Unit is an absolute must. This e-drive, with its 75Nm of available torque and huge power output, is the best-performing drive for this kind of application. Combined with a 500Wh battery, the range is impressive. Schwalbe's 4.0 inch Jumbo Jim tyres provide traction on any surface, regardless of whether you find yourself on a steep trail, loose rocks, snow or sand. And Shimano's 11-speed XT transmission, with its 11-46 tooth cassette, provides an incredible gear range to tackle even the steepest of mountain trails. Rock Shox's Bluto suspension fork, specially developed for Fatbikes, transforms the Nutrail into a comfortable, ultimately versatile trail-taming machine that will turn any ride into a new experience.
