VERSATILITY FOR EVERY DAY

CUBE extends its fleet of cargo bikes with the Longtail Hybrid

CUBE presents a further innovative cargo bike concept: the Longtail Hybrid. The new line-up of compact cargo bikes featuring an extra-long luggage carrier is an impressively versatile addition to CUBE’s mobility offering. With a range of accessories for transporting children, luggage or cargo, the luggage carrier can adapt to an array of changing needs. The Longtail Hybrid promises flexibility in spades and is another solution for a new era of urban and touring mobility.

Family, daily use, cycle touring – move it all with the Longtail: taking inspiration from the classic trekking bike but featuring a stable, elongated luggage carrier, CUBE’s compact cargo bike elevates load-lugging practicality to the next level. Transport up to two children, a 40x60cm Eurobox or generously sized panniers on the sturdy luggage carrier with suspension technology. The carrier is rated for 40kg up top and 10kg at each side to offer 60kg in total. There’s also the option to upgrade with a front rack to add a further 20kg of cargo-carrying capacity. A lockable storage compartment with flexible partitions in the down tube keeps valuables safely under lock and key. The down tube can also take a compatible luggage rack with two mounting points. With its compact wheel base and 26-inch wheels, the Longtail Hybrid serves up the familiar handling and comfort of a standard bike. Adjustability comes as standard courtesy of CUBE’s ONE SIZE Concept, with a telescopic seatpost and height-adjustable Speedlifter stem which adapt to suit a wide range of riders from 1.60 to 1.90m, allowing virtually anyone to ride with confidence.

This Bosch-powered, space-saving cargo bike is available in two different options, each in two colourways: either with user-friendly hub gears or as a Shimano 10-speed Sport version. The Longtail Hybrid line-up:

  • Longtail Hybrid 725: grey´n´reflex │ blue´n´reflex
  • Longtail Sport Hybrid 725: swampgrey´n´reflex │ flashwhite´n´reflex

With its range of optional accessories, the Longtail Hybrid is a modular cargo bike that flexibly adapts to fit virtually any rider and slot seamlessly into any lifestyle. One or two children can sit comfortably on the padded bench seat. Alternatively, the luggage carrier is compatible with conventional child seats to safely carry children who are too small to ride on the bench seat. A side protector keeps feet and trouser legs away from the spokes. Wooden step boards can be used as footrests for the kids or as a platform to carry parcels. A rail keeps a Eurobox or other larger items safely in place or doubles up as a handrail for the children. The matching pannier set with 45 litres at each side has bags of extra space to pack shopping or touring essentials. CUBE has also designed its own interface to enable an additional front rack to be installed with room for a 30x40cm Eurobox or a bag.
