01
Origin
Launched in 2017 alongside the Stereo Hybrid, the Reaction Hybrid brings Bosch power to Cube's hardtail platform — the accessible entry point to e-MTB riding. The mixed-wheel approach (27.5" on smaller sizes, 29" on larger) keeps standover height practical and handling consistent without compromising rollover ability. A six-model range from Performance to SLT means the platform spans from family trail use to fast e-XC riding.

The verdict
+Strengths
- Wide model range (6 builds) makes the platform accessible at multiple price points
- Bosch CX motor with eMTB mode handles everything from commuting to technical trails
- Mixed-wheel sizing keeps the geometry dialled across the size run
−Weaknesses
- No rear suspension — rougher terrain will find the limits faster than a full-sus equivalent
- Heavy (20–22 kg) despite the hardtail simplicity — Bosch system adds significant weight
- Hardtail platform limits the bike on very rough/technical descents
