How it compares
With 140 mm of fork travel, the CUBE AMS Hybrid ONE44 is on the shorter side; the median of the 101 comparable bikes in the “e-MTB for trail and touring” category is 150 mm. Travel is the same front and rear at 140 mm each. On travel, it slots in between the CUBE Stereo Hybrid ONE22 and the CUBE Stereo Hybrid ONE44 HPC in the CUBE range. The frame is made of carbon.
The CUBE AMS Hybrid ONE44 does well on weight: 16.8 kg for the C:68X SLT 400X build is 6.6 kg below the median of comparable bikes (23.4 kg). There are 3.0 kg between the lightest and the heaviest build. For suspension, CUBE combines components from FOX and RockShox. In total, 5 different forks are used, from the FOX 34 Float Rhythm GRIP to the FOX 36 Float Performance. It is powered by Bosch Performance Line SX with a 400 Wh battery.
Setup notes for this spec
- Fork (FOX 34 Float Rhythm GRIP): air goes in through the valve on top of the left leg. After every change, compress the fork firmly a few times before measuring SAG.
- Rebound: on FOX and RockShox suspension the rebound adjuster is red. Always count clicks from fully closed (clockwise to the stop) so you can return to any setting.
- Shock (FOX Float Rhythm RC): 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: because of the extra weight, start with slightly more tyre pressure – the surcharge is already built into the table below.
Target SAG for the CUBE AMS Hybrid ONE44
Instead of percentages, this table gives SAG directly in millimetres, measurable with the O-ring on the stanchion and on the shock shaft. Change the pressure step by step until you reach the value; if CUBE gives its own target SAG, use that.
140 mm fork, 55.0 mm shock stroke (all builds)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 24 mm | 24 % = 13.2 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 28 mm | 28 % = 15.4 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 31 mm | 30 % = 16.5 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 28 mm | 27 % = 14.9 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 Magnotal Trail Soft 2.4; Continental Xynotal 2.4; Schwalbe Magic Mary / Nobby Nic 2.4; Schwalbe Nobby Nic / Wicked Will 2.4; Schwalbe Nobby Nic Performance 2.4.
| 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 guide value for air pressure on the fork sticker (or on the shock) or in the suspension makers’ charts. Our calculator also takes riding style and rebound into account. In the end, measured SAG is what counts.
