Cube Reaction Hybrid Rookie 540 surfblue n black

Kids want to have at least as much fun on the trails as their parents—that makes sense! It’s a good thing the Reaction Hybrid Rookie, with its Bosch Performance motor and 540 Wh battery, provides the perfect support! This lets them pedal with power and build plenty of confidence—even longer family bike rides are no problem. The frame and all contact points are specifically tailored to young riders, such as our clever Variable Grip System. The wide Schwalbe 2.6-inch tires, rolling on sturdy ACID SLX30 rims, offer just as much grip. Impressive: The hydraulic disc brakes bite down firmly when needed and bring the bike to a safe stop in any weather. At the same time, the easy-to-use Shimano Cues 11-speed drivetrain makes every route and every climb a breeze. So it’s got everything you need—brilliant!

Frame and Features

The Reaction Hybrid Rookie frame was designed with the same attention to detail and high functionality as our adult bikes. It features a Performance motor from Bosch, powered by a 540 Wh battery—for perfectly calibrated assistance and guaranteed happy kids. The whole system is also compatible with the Bosch Smart System, so the relevant data can be accessed via the eBike Flow app. Our Internal Cable Routing complements the clean lines, and X-Connect makes it easy to attach a compatible ACID front light. What else? A mount for an optional flat-mount side stand. This e-bike is definitely ready for whatever lies ahead!

Who is the Reaction Hybrid Rookie 540 suitable for?

For the fast trails, the sharp turns, the long tours, the Alpine crossings - in short: For all those who rely 100% on their bike. Despite the weight and stiffness optimizations, these mountain bikes are still sufficiently comfortable and make long tours possible. These complete packages offer little room for improvement and are reliable companions on all rides for years. Almost too bad for the after-work hours - but who knows, maybe you'll find another trail?

The advantages of 29 inch tires

29 inch is THE trend of the last few years, which was able to assert itself completely. Initially viewed critically by mountain bike purists and equipped with some teething troubles, the bike industry has recognized the trend and made it the new standard through continuous improvements. The advantage of the 29" tyres is the enormous running smoothness, which brings great advantages and saves power on long tours as well as uphill and downhill. Obstacles are easier to overcome due to the larger circumference of the wheels, and a greater distance is covered by turning the bottom bracket. By improvements and adjustments in the frame construction and the component selection, initial problems with the agility in the Trail and the optics of smaller frames were optimally balanced. Whether fully or hardtail, a 29 will take you far away.
