I think EPO is a great tounge-in-cheek-name for an unconventional bike. Grabs your attention, so to speak and hints of extra energy.

The AMS, however, also grabs the attention but leaves you disappointed. It is already a dated look on the 26er (although works well), but it looks even worse with big wheels.

Seriously though, could there ever really be a better name for an electric assist bike than EPO?

Did you know that Cloxxki has actually worked for Cube in the past? Mind you: this is not is not a sarcastic joke, because i know him personally. He even has a ~2005 Cube 29er prototype which he helped develop, but was never marketed.

Cube chiming in in the 29er game may not seem spectacular, but in a way it is:

More than anything, it proves that 29′ers are finally accepted as mainstream, It’s the end of 29′ers as a niche, but…

knowing Cube, they will offer great value for money. 29′ers will now be bought by those who just might benefit the most of the stability and “secureness” the big wheels provide.

It’s truly “29ers for the masses”, and allthough a snob might regret the loss of exclusiveness, the real 29er fan should be pleased!
