How it compares
170 mm at the fork almost exactly matches the 170 mm median of the 56 bikes in the “e-enduro bike” category in our database. Travel is the same front and rear at 170 mm each. Among CUBE’s e-mountain bikes, the CUBE AMS Hybrid 177 C:62 is the model with the most fork travel. The frame is made of carbon.
The CUBE AMS Hybrid 177 C:62 does well on weight: 21.3 kg for the Super TM 600X build is 2.2 kg below the median of comparable bikes (23.5 kg). There are 1.2 kg between the lightest and the heaviest build. Depending on the build, fork and shock come from FOX and RockShox. In total, 2 different forks are used, from the FOX 38 Float Factory GRIP X2 to the RockShox ZEB Select+ Charger 3.2 RC2 Air. It is powered by Bosch Performance Line CX-R or Bosch Performance Line CX with a 600 Wh battery.
Setup notes for this spec
- Air fork (FOX 38 Float Factory GRIP X2): the air valve is on top of the left leg under a cap. Change pressure in small steps (about 5 psi (0.34 bar)) and cycle the fork a few times afterwards so the air chambers can equalise.
- Rebound: turn the red FOX and RockShox adjuster fully closed first and count clicks from there – that way you can note settings and restore them later.
- Shock (FOX Float X2 Factory): get on the bike in your normal riding position, step off carefully and read the O-ring. Always cycle the shock a few times after pumping.
- e-MTB: the extra weight mainly affects tyre pressure, which is why the table below already includes a surcharge. SAG is measured just as on a bike without a motor.
Target SAG for the CUBE AMS Hybrid 177 C:62
SAG is the share of travel your weight already uses in the riding position. The table gives it straight in millimetres – read the O-ring on the stanchion and on the shock shaft and adjust the air pressure until it matches. Any figures from CUBE take priority.
170 mm fork, 65.0 mm shock stroke (all builds)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 29 mm | 24 % = 15.6 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 34 mm | 28 % = 18.2 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 37 mm | 30 % = 19.5 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 34 mm | 27 % = 17.6 mm on the shock shaft |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
For 2.40″ wide tyres, tubeless with a trail casing, including the e-MTB surcharge. With an inner tube about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi) more, with an insert about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi) less. Stock tyres: Continental Argotal / Kryptotal Rear 2.4; Schwalbe Magic Mary Trail Pro / Albert Gravity Pro 2.5.
| Ready-to-ride weight | Front | Rear |
|---|---|---|
| 60 kg | 1.48 bar (21 psi) | 1.68 bar (24 psi) |
| 70 kg | 1.60 bar (23 psi) | 1.80 bar (26 psi) |
| 80 kg | 1.72 bar (25 psi) | 1.92 bar (28 psi) |
| 90 kg | 1.84 bar (27 psi) | 2.04 bar (30 psi) |
| 100 kg | 1.96 bar (28 psi) | 2.16 bar (31 psi) |
| 110 kg | 2.08 bar (30 psi) | 2.28 bar (33 psi) |
| 120 kg | 2.20 bar (32 psi) | 2.40 bar (35 psi) |
Air pressure in the fork and shock
You will find a suitable starting pressure on the sticker on the fork stanchion (or on the shock) or in the suspension manufacturers’ setup charts. Our calculator gives you a starting value including rebound for your weight and riding style. What matters afterwards is the measured SAG from the table above.
