KUbikes offer various components to choose .
If you are unsure which components are best suited for your desired application, we would like to support you in your choice with the following explanations:

Tires
- Schwalbe Black Jack 16 x 1.90: MTB tires for terrain and unpaved paths. Super grip thanks to many tread blocks and best suspension comfort thanks to large air volume.
- Kenda APTOR 16 x 1.75: All-round tire, ideal for asphalt and light terrain. Very light tire with good rolling properties.
- Schwalbe Marathon Racer 16 x 1.50: Road tires, mainly for asphalt. Very low rolling resistance due to negative profile and good visibility thanks to reflective strips. Ideal for the city.

Saddle
- 52 parts with integrated aluminum seat post
- 52 parts with carbon seat post


Seat clamp
- Without quick release: bolt with hexagon socket, tool required to adjust the saddle height, therefore theft-proof to a limited extent
- Quick release: Tool-free adjustment of the saddle height and therefore quick adjustment possible at any time

Chainring
- 28 teeth: Gear ratio recommended by Kubikes
- 32 teeth: Heavier gear than 28 teeth chainring, allows faster riding, pedaling possible when riding downhill. Driving uphill difficult, therefore only suitable for the level. Caution: higher stress on the joints

Circuit
- Without: a gear
- 2-speed automatic gearshift from Sturmey Archer: automatic hub gearshift, built into the rear wheel, two gears, no shifter, shifts automatically at around 8 km/h. (Switches automatically to 2nd gear at approx. 8 km/h by centrifugal force. If this speed is not reached and the pedals are briefly relieved of pressure, the automatic gearshift switches back to 1st gear. 1st gear corresponds to one gear on the KUbikes 16 super light, the 2nd gear is about 30% heavier The spread of the two gears is about 30%.) Area of ​​application : hills, mountains, windy regions. Higher top speed possible.

Brakes
- Aluminum V-brakes: very smooth-running aluminum rim brakes with a good pressure point
- KCNC V-Brakes: CNC-milled brakes, optimized lightweight construction, minimal weight

Pedals
- Plastic Pedals: 52 parts; low risk of injury and non-slip.
- Aluminum Pedals Platform: 52 parts; low weight, very smooth-running storage and non-slip thanks to pins (caution: risk of injury if you slip off).
