All CUBE bikes that have a factory-installed carrier are, of course, approved for luggage carrier installation, as are aluminium hardtail frames with rack mounting points
(at the dropouts and at the top of the seat stays).

Excluded from luggage carrier use:

• Carbon-fibre seatposts are generally not suitable for seatpost-mounted luggage carriers, because the clamping force can notch the post and cause sudden breakage.
• The combination of carbon-fibre frame/aluminium seatpost is also unsuitable for attaching a seatpost-mounted luggage carrier.
• All carbon-fibre bikes including carbon full-suspension, carbon hardtails and carbon road bikes. 

Exceptions: Models with integrated rack mounting points on the dropouts and at the top of the seat stays (e.g. our Nuroad C:62 from model year 2021).

The stresses caused by using a luggage carrier can harm carbon-fibre frames in the longer term. This can lead to unexpected breakage of the frame and serious accidents.

Important: Please note that the bike classification category automatically changes to 2 when using kickstands, mudguards (fenders), luggage racks and trailers.

Universal kickstands that attach to the chainstay and seat stay can be used on all of our hardtail frames.
Protect your bike by installing a rubber protector between the kickstand and frame.

Not suitable for kickstands:
• All full-suspension bikes without integrated kickstand mounting points (kickstand braze-ons)
• All carbon-fibre frames without integrated kickstand mounting points (kickstand braze-ons)
Kickstands that attach to the chainstay via a single clamping point (via a clamp or similar) are not approved for use. This could damage the chainstay over long-term use.

Important: Please note that the bike classification category automatically changes to 2 when using kickstands, mudguards (fenders), luggage racks and trailers.

How to use:

Unfortunately, we can neither authorise nor prohibit the use of child seats on any of our bikes. We have not carried out comprehensive testing of child seats and thus cannot assess if they can be used safely and without damaging the frame.

The installation of a child seat on the seat tube of our aluminium bike frames with thin-walled tubes is not approved. The forces exerted by the child seat may damage or even break the frame beyond repair.
Clamping to carbon-fibre frames is generally not approved. If you do decide to use a child seat, please make sure you do not exceed the maximum system weight for your CUBE bike.

Yes, provided you observe the following points:

A trailer must not be towed under any of the following conditions:
Bicycles with and without electric motor assistance (pedelecs)
• model year 2018 and older
• with a carbon-fibre fork
• with a full carbon-fibre frame
• with a carbon-fibre rear triangle
• with adjustable dropouts for hub gears, belt drive, etc.
• road bikes, gravel bikes and cyclocross bikes
• children's bikes and youth bikes
• all non-electric-motor-assisted bikes with rear suspension
• speed pedelecs (45kph)

A trailer may be towed under the following conditions:
• Full-suspension electric motor-assisted mountain bikes (pedelecs) with aluminium rear triangle from model year 2020 onwards.
• The trailer manufacturer's original assembly system must be used (thru-axle/quick release with clutch).
• Do not clamp the trailer to the frame tubes or other components (seatpost, luggage carrier, etc.).
• The tongue weight must be at least 2kg and no more than 8kg, and must be deducted from the loading weight of the luggage carrier where this is given (see FAQs on maximum system weight).
• The maximum permitted total system weight when towing a trailer (i.e. rider + bike + trailer + cargo) is 180kg. Please also take care to ensure you do not exceed the maximum permitted system weight (i.e. bike + rider) given for the bike excluding trailer.
• The gross trailer weight must not exceed 25kg for model year 2019 and 60kg for model year 2020 onwards.
• Please always follow the trailer manufacturer's instructions.
• The maximum permitted speed when towing a trailer is 25kph (15mph).

Important: Please note that the bike classification category automatically changes to 2 when using kickstands, mudguards (fenders), luggage racks and trailers.

Important: Please be aware that towing a trailer will cause additional wear and tear to your bike, in particular the brakes (discs and pads), rear triangle bearings, fork bushings and wheels/hubs.

Important: Towing a trailer will negatively affect the way your bike brakes and handles.

We deliberately chose not to include stabilisers because we believe the best way to learn how to ride is to transfer the skills learnt on the balance bike directly to a normal bike. Stabilisers can be counter-intuitive when it comes to developing a good sense of balance and they also add weight to the bike. A child learning to ride with stabilisers may develop a false sense of confidence that they lose once the stabilisers are removed. We feel balance bikes are a better alternative to stabilisers.
