In this video I ride my bike down one of Buckinghamshire’s steepest hills – Brick Hill at Ashendon. I then ride it back up in EMTB mode to see how it handles such a steep hill. The results are impressive!

Rather you than me Karl!
Used to drive the occasional bus up that hill, coming back from a school run (I think) to Brill. Used to love the old station buildings where you turned around.
The really annoying thing is that I stopped the video about 2:45 to figure out where you were. I was really smug that I'd found it. Until I restarted the video and you told us anyway!
🤦♂
What kind of milage do you get from a full charge? Also, what mode were you riding on? I really want one of these bikes
Try turbo it makes a big difference from EMTB as it has overrun.
Call that a hill, come with me and ride in Peak District. I’m 69 years young and ride a Cube Reaction 750 Race and I’m 210 lbs of fat lol ,
Been out today actually, Birchover to Wildboarclough and back,50.3 miles with 18% battery left , spectacular ride, Peak District is the dogs bo===😊
Hi Karl, I reside in Central Scotland near Stirling. I have a Cube Proreaction 500. It's near 4 years old with 8k on the clock. Fastest I have achieved is 44.5 mph going down a hill at the Path o' Condie and I am 62 and 14 stone. Bike is not chipped. It regularly exceeds 40mph down a hill with a bit of pedaling. You should swop out these Schwalbe Smart Sam (29 X 2.6) tyres for Schwalbe Hurricanes (29 X 2.4) which are more road friendly with less drag. These Hurricanes are also good off road as well.
I honestly can’t see a hill.
A Candence sensor with a rear hub motor for that sort of riding.
I ride up in the Dales area around Malham and the Trough of Bowland on a Cube Reaction 750. I guess hills are different to different people.
