The One77 is the longest travel fully in Cube's Stereo range, with the Pro 29 being the cheaper of the two available models. For 2799 euros, you get a DVO chassis, Newmen wheels and Magura brakes. If you want to dig a little deeper into your pocket, you can swap the aluminium chassis for the carbon version with a lightweight C:68X frame for 4999 euros (>> available here).
The test of the Cube Stereo One77 was part of a comparative test of five enduro mountain bikes. You can find the other articles in this series here:

But the aluminium version also makes a good impression in the test: at 16.23 kilos, the One77 marks the best value in the field. The wheels are also the lightest in the comparison. The rest of the equipment is, typically Cube, of high quality. The DVO suspension in particular received a lot of praise from our testers. Adjustability, damping control and response behaviour are second to none.

A small drop of bitterness: Cube has dispensed with a UDH derailleur hanger. This means that the One77 is not compatible with Sram's current, particularly robust and precise transmission groupsets. Now of all times, when Sram has an affordable mechanical T-Type drivetrain in its portfolio with the Eagle 70, which is perfect for this price range, Cube has decided to forego this strong selling point.
The practical test in the Oberammergau bike park quickly makes it clear that the Cube is one of the more manoeuvrable enduro bikes in the comparison. Even when you first sit on it, the bike seems a size smaller than the competition - so you need to be careful when choosing a size. If you are between two frame sizes, you should definitely go for the larger version...
... Why? Due to the moderate steering angle, the compact rear end and the short reach, the wheelbase is very short. To put this into perspective: in size L, the reach measures just 461 millimetres - less than the Merida in size M. This increases manoeuvrability. Jumps, manuals, quick changes of direction - the Cube literally craves to be pushed playfully through the terrain. The low weight also contributes to its agility. The result: second place in the playfulness ranking - just behind the Merida.
As manoeuvrable and playful as the Cube is to ride, you wouldn't expect it to be very safe when the terrain gets really rough. Wrong! Although the bike doesn't hold its line quite as confidently as the more expensive reference bike from Haro, the DVO suspension provides so much traction and control that the One77, together with the Propain lands in second place. Ultra-sensitive, easy to swallow and yet with sufficient support - no other entry-level enduro bike comes so close to the High-end chassis of the Haro approach.
Uphill, the One77 impresses with a comfortable, upright riding position. The three-stage platform lever is within easy reach and effectively eliminates drive influences. Bravo! Only the gear range of the 11-50 cassette is very small.

Footnote to the BIKE rating: Serviceability: How well the frame is protected and how easy it is to service the bike. Frame stiffness: Lateral stiffness in N/mm separately for the front frame triangle including the fork (front) and the rear triangle (rear). The BIKE grade is made up of practical impressions of the test riders and laboratory measurements. The grade is independent of price. Grading range: 0.5-5.5, analogue to the school grading system.
If I were competing in an enduro race, the Cube would probably not be my first choice due to its compact geometry. However, when it comes to maximum riding fun, the One77 Pro 29 is unbeatable - especially at this price: Top suspension, lively handling and pleasant to pedal uphill. An all-round successful all-rounder and an absolutely worthy test winner!
