Our verdict

The Cube Cargo Sport Hybrid 500 offers the core of a premium bakfiets at a lower price: Bosch Cargo Line, Enviolo hub and an EPP foam box. Its box is rated for 60 kg, so it suits two small children or shopping rather than heavy loads.

Pros

  • Strong Bosch Cargo Line motor with 85 Nm
  • Stepless Enviolo hub, low maintenance
  • Light, weatherproof EPP foam box
  • Strong 85 Nm motor pulls full loads up steep hills
  • High permitted total weight of 220 kg
  • Hub gears shift at a standstill, handy at traffic lights

Cons

  • Box rated for only 60 kg
  • Rider limit of 115 kg
  • 500 Wh is modest for long days
  • Heavy at 46 kg — hard to carry or lift over steps
  • Long (2,720 mm) — needs a ground-level parking spot

Ideal for…

  • Families with one or two small children
  • Shopping and daily errands in town
  • Families carrying two or three kids
  • Couriers and commercial deliveries
  • Riding with a dog

Not recommended if…

  • Heavy cargo or older children
  • Riders over 115 kg
  • You must carry it up stairs or into a cellar
  • You have no ground-level parking space

Who it is for

The Cube Cargo Sport Hybrid 500 is for families who want a modern front-loader with branded components without paying premium-brand prices. The 200-litre EPP foam box is light, weatherproof and designed for children aged nine months to seven years. Cube rates the box for 60 kg, plus 20 kg on an optional rear rack, and the whole bike for 220 kg.

Riding and everyday use

The Bosch Cargo Line motor with 85 Nm pulls strongly from a standstill, and the Enviolo Cargo stepless hub lets you change gear while stopped. Magura hydraulic disc brakes and a suspension fork add safety and comfort. With the 500 Wh battery, expect around 40 km with a load; Cube also sells a Dual Hybrid version with 1000 Wh.

Before you buy

The rider may weigh up to 115 kg, and rider, bike, box and rack together must stay under 220 kg. At 46 kg and front-loader length, plan a ground-level parking spot. For heavy cargo or three children, look at bikes with a higher box rating.
