In keeping with the CUBE Trail Motion tradition, the Stereo Hybrid ONE77 HPC TM 800 is something rather special. For starters, we fed the power of the Bosch CX drive and 800 Wh PowerTube battery through Sram's GX Eagle Transmission 1x12 gears, for effortless ratio selection and incredible electronic precision. Next, we chose a Fox Float 38 Performance Grip fork, and paired it with a Float X2 Performance shock. Together, they provide 170mm of travel – with loads of adjustment – to help keep the rubber side down. Speaking of which, the mullet Newmen Beskar 30 wheelset is shod with Schwalbe's tough, grippy Magic Mary and Tacky Tan 2.4in tyres. Which is a good thing, because all that traction helps the powerful Magura MT7 hydraulic disc brakes do their job. And, combined with a remote dropper seatpost, it's everything you need to pick a fight with gravity and come out on top.
