Cube Kathmandu Hybrid SLT 750 Trapeze 2023 Electric Bike

An adventurous spirit can go hand in hand with comfort and style. Combining road-smoothing RockShox and Byschulz suspension with fourth-generation Bosch power and the reliability of Shimano's 1x12 gears and powerful hydraulic disc brakes, it's the Kathmandu Hybrid SLT 750's sophisticated frame design and clever accessories that seal the deal. A Grand Tourer for grand tours...

Where would you like to go? Because wherever it is, the Kathmandu Hybrid SLT 750 will get you there in comfort and style. With its sophisticated frame and high-capacity 750Wh battery for the best possible range, Bosch's fourth-generation CX drive unit works with the wide gear range and smooth shifting of Shimano's XT 1 x 12 transmission to devour any route with ease. We fitted four-piston Shimano XT hydraulic disc brakes for superb control in any weather. A Newmen wheelset and Schwalbe Marathon Efficiency tyres offer low weight, comfort and safe grip. And the RockShox Recon Gold RL fork, Byschulz seatpost and adjustable stem are all there for your comfort. Add the Integrated Carrier 3.0, mudguards, kickstand and lighting set and the only remaining question is, where will you ride next?

Designed for comfort, versatility and durability, the Kathmandu's frame - whether you choose the Men's version, the Trapeze or the Easy Entry - incorporates a high-capacity Bosch battery for the best possible range. Efficient Comfort Geometry works exactly the way you'd expect it to, meaning you can pedal in comfort for miles and miles. And the Integrated Carrier 3.0 is as strong as its predecessors, but even better integrated with the rear mudguard for an elegantly understated look that you'll love - and it's the perfect way to add accessories and carry whatever you need with you.

Features

With our specially designed Efficient Comfort Geometry, cycling is a simple pleasure. Whether you're popping across town or exploring further afield, taking a ride with the family or with friends, for work or for pleasure, we've created a ride experience that will have you coming back for more.

A wider hub makes a stiffer wheel, and a stiffer wheel means better handling. That's the thinking behind the Boost 148 rear hub standard, which allows wider flange spacing for better wheel performance without impacting on shifting accuracy or drivetrain efficiency. Simply put, you can go faster and harder with better handling and stronger wheels.

Gravity Casting moulds liquid aluminium into highly complex frame sections, resulting in extremely strong structures that can better withstand stress. For example, with our Hybrid models we're able to produce a motor mount that's optimised to cope with the loads placed on it in this specialised application, without adding unnecessary weight or sacrificing strength.

The Fully Integrated Battery system tucks the power of Bosch's battery out of sight, safely inside the confines of your bike's downtube. Hidden beneath a splash and dust-proof cover and secured with a lock to prevent theft, it allows us to design beautiful e-bike frames that are as brilliantly functional as they are good to look at.

The Integrated Carrier 3.0 is the next level in system integration: from the side, it's hard to tell where the luggage carrier ends and the mudguard begins. But it doesn't just look good, it's also incredibly strong and rigid. With an integrated spring clamp and Cube Rilink ready adaptor for mounting bags and baskets, it transforms your Cube into an adaptable and versatile load carrier.

In many ways the battery is the heart of an e-bike. That's why, with our Modular Battery System, we've made a setup that's easy to use. You can charge the battery on or off the bike, and we've made room for even high capacity batteries. You'll wonder how you ever managed without it.
