Cube LTD 26er

Hi,

Hopefully someone on here can help, I'm a total newbee to biking and was looking to get the above through a cycle to work scheme. Having looked around this seemed to be within budget and with decent specs, however stock seems to be extremely limited (20" frame) both online and locally.

I can find 29er versions (but tyre choice is limited and expensive - particuarly for semi slick tyres) but those that have the 26er in stock have little to no Cube accessories which considering you get 10% of the bike value for Cube accessories means I'd be unable to use the voucher (and would wave goodbye to £80+ of freebies).

My question is therefore, does anyone know of a shop that has the bike in stock, with good selection of accessories and registered with cyclescheme. Or alternatively, a similar spec'd bike below the £900 mark - I'd love a canynon but they don't operate the scheme.

Thanks in advance for any advice available.

I think you'll find they mean accessories. Any accessories.

Unfortunately, the voucher specifically states it must be in this case Cube branded products.

But you say you will consider alternative bikes? So I'm confused.
Perhaps you should clarify what sort of voucher.

Hi Cooldad,

As I understand it when you enter into a cycle to work agreement with Cyclescheme you get sent an electronic voucher which entitles you to 10% of the value of the bike purchased in accessories (but they must be branded accessories and the same brand as the bike being purchased).
The only online stores that I found with the Cube Ltd 26er in stock had little to no branded Cube Accessories, so I either get the bike from there without accessories (and lose over £80 of free accessories) I find somehwere with the bike in stock with a good range of Cube accessories or I find a different bike (but again they would need a decent range of accessories).
Sorry I confused myself when posting, but thanks for taking the time to respond.

I've never heard of the accessories needing to be the same brand as the bike. I'd check. Doubt any dealer would turn down a deal on that basis. Most bike manufacturers don't sell things like helmets and mudguards and stuff like that anyway.

I'll give them a call and see what they say. Thanks
