Overview
The Cube Cargo Hybrid 800 is a practical, well-equipped cargo bike designed for carrying loads and handling everyday commutes with ease. Its 250W motor provides smooth and controlled assistance, making it ideal for moderate hills and city riding, though it lacks the punch for steep inclines. The bike makes good use of its 800Wh battery, offering a reliable 80km range on a single charge, and the removable battery adds convenience for charging and storage. Weighing 47kg, it feels stable and sturdy when loaded, but its weight may make it less agile compared to lighter e-bikes. While the charging time is slower than average, the overall value and practicality make it a solid choice for those prioritizing cargo capacity and daily usability.
Best For
✓
This cargo e-bike should suit riders who need a reliable and practical bike for family use, errands or utility trips, with a strong focus on carrying capacity and everyday usability.

eBike FAQs
Is this bike suitable for carrying heavy loads or family use?
The Cube Cargo Hybrid 800 is well-suited for carrying heavy loads or family use, thanks to its cargo bike design and sturdy build. With a 47kg weight and a 800Wh battery, it offers a reliable 80-mile range, making it practical for daily commutes or errands with cargo. The removable battery adds convenience for charging, though the motor power is on the lower side for steep hills, so it's best suited for moderate inclines and urban environments.
How does the motor perform when climbing hills or dealing with inclines?
The motor provides smooth and controlled assistance that should handle moderate hills well, especially with the bike's above-average torque. However, it may struggle with very steep inclines due to the 250W motor power, which is on the lower end for this type of e-bike. If you regularly ride steep hills, you may find the motor lacks the punch to make climbing effortless, but it should still offer reliable support for everyday inclines and city riding.
Is the battery efficient enough for daily commuting or longer rides?
The Cube Cargo Hybrid 800 offers a reliable 80-mile range on a single charge, which should cover most daily commutes or even longer rides with some planning. The 800Wh battery is efficient for its size, and the removable design makes it easy to charge at home or work. While the charging time is slower than average, the range and convenience of the battery should make it a solid choice for regular use, especially when carrying loads or making multiple stops.
How practical is this bike for everyday use, especially with built-in features like lights?

This is especially useful for cargo bikes that are often used for daily errands or family trips.
What are the main limitations or trade-offs of this bike?
The Cube Cargo Hybrid 800 is a solid choice for carrying loads and daily use, but it has a few trade-offs. The 250W motor provides smooth assistance for moderate hills but lacks the punch for steep inclines, which may be a limitation for more challenging terrain. Its 47kg weight makes it stable when loaded but less agile compared to lighter e-bikes. Additionally, the charging time is slower than average, which could be a consideration for users who need quick battery turnaround.
Is this bike comfortable and stable for extended periods of riding with cargo?
The Cube Cargo Hybrid 800 is designed with stability in mind, making it comfortable for long rides with cargo. Its sturdy frame and 47kg weight provide a solid feel when carrying loads, though it may feel heavier than some lighter e-bikes.
