Who says you need four wheels to move your important stuff around town? Urban transport meets family practicality with the Cube Cargo Hybrid 500, a purpose-built electric cargo bike that redefines how you move through the city. Whether you're transporting shopping, work equipment, or precious cargo in the form of children, this robust e-bike makes every journey easy and enjoyable.
Specifically engineered for cargo bike applications, the Bosch Cargo Line Gen 4 motor delivering a powerful 85Nm of torque. This drive unit provides the extra power needed to handle heavy loads with confidence, whilst maintaining the natural riding feel that makes longer journeys comfortable. The motor integrates seamlessly with the frame design, positioning the weight low for optimal stability when loaded.
Power storage is provided by the reliable Bosch PowerPack 500Wh battery, offering substantial range for daily urban adventures. The battery's strategic placement near the bike's centre of gravity ensures balanced handling whether you're riding empty or fully loaded, and there's space for an optional second battery should extended range be required.
The Enviolo Cargo hub gear system provides stepless, intuitive shifting that's perfect for stop-start city riding. With 380% gear range and no derailleur to worry about, maintenance stays minimal whilst the smooth, continuous shifting means you'll always find the perfect cadence – especially useful when starting from standstill with a heavy load.
Speaking of comfort and control, you'll get even more of it due to the 80mm of suspension travel in the SR Suntour MOBIE CARGO fork up front. This cargo-specific fork smooths out the inevitable bumps and kerbs of urban riding, reducing fatigue whilst maintaining precise steering even when carrying substantial weight in the front cargo area; and, because the cargo box is positioned right behind it, any fragile cargo or young passengers will benefit the most from smoothing out the journey.
Stopping power is handled by Magura CMe hydraulic disc brakes with generous 180mm front and 203mm rear rotors. These powerful brakes provide the confident stopping performance essential when riding a loaded cargo bike, with progressive feel and reliable performance in all weather conditions.
The bike rolls on robust Schwalbe Pick-Up tyres featuring Super Defense puncture protection. The mixed tyre sizes, 20" front and 27.5" rear, optimise the cargo bike's geometry whilst the aggressive tread pattern and reinforced sidewalls ensure reliable grip and durability for daily urban use.
Practical touches abound, from the EPP foam cargo box that provides a safe, stable platform for your precious cargo, to the BySchulz Speedlifter stem that allows quick handlebar height adjustment for different riders. Included accessories like mudguards, integrated LED lighting, a cargo-specific kickstand, and even a bell mean you're ready to ride straight away.
With a maximum system weight of 220kg, the Cargo Hybrid 500 is engineered to handle serious loads whilst maintaining the stable handling that makes cargo bike riding such a practical pleasure. Perfect for families seeking car-free transport solutions or businesses needing efficient urban delivery capability.
