FAQs
What age is the Cube Numove 140 suitable for?
The Numove 140 is generally recommended for children aged approximately 3 to 5 years, depending on their height and coordination.
How heavy is the Cube Numove 140?
The bike is specifically designed to be lightweight, with an aluminum frame contributing to easy handling for young riders.
Can this bike be used on rough terrain?
While the tires offer some grip, the bike is best suited for smooth surfaces like paths and sidewalks. Its single-speed nature and lack of suspension mean it's not ideal for off-road trails.
Do I need to assemble the bike myself?
The bike typically comes partially assembled. Basic assembly like attaching handlebars, seatpost, and pedals may be required. We recommend a professional check for safety.
What maintenance does the enclosed chain guard require?
The enclosed chain guard requires minimal maintenance. Keep it clean and ensure it is securely fastened. It protects the chain from dirt and clothing.
How do I adjust the seat height?
The seat height can be adjusted using the seatpost clamp. Loosen the clamp, slide the seatpost to the desired height, and re-tighten the clamp securely. Ensure the child can still comfortably touch the ground with their feet.
What type of brakes does it have?
The Cube Numove 140 features front and rear V-brakes, controlled by child-sized brake levers for easy operation.
Troubleshooting
Bike won't move forward when pedaling.
Ensure the pedals are correctly installed and turning freely. Check that the chain is properly seated on the chainring and cog.
Brakes are not stopping effectively.
Check brake pad alignment with the rim. Ensure the brake cables are taut and not stretched. Adjust the brake levers for optimal pull.
Chain keeps falling off.
Verify the chainring and rear cog are aligned. Ensure the chain is not excessively worn or loose. The enclosed chain guard might need adjustment if it's interfering.
Child finds it difficult to reach the pedals.
Adjust the seat to the lowest possible comfortable position. Ensure the correct pedal is on the correct side (usually marked L/R).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup: The bike typically comes partially assembled. Ensure all bolts, especially those on the wheels, handlebars, and seatpost, are securely tightened. Adjust the seat height so the child can comfortably place the balls of their feet on the ground. The brake levers should be positioned for easy reach by small hands.
Compatibility: This bike is designed for young children and is not compatible with adult components or accessories. The 14-inch wheel size is specific to this model.
Care: Clean the bike regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Check tire pressure periodically and maintain it according to the manufacturer's recommendation (usually found on the tire sidewall). Lubricate the chain as needed, though its enclosed nature reduces maintenance requirements. Store the bike in a dry place when not in use to prevent rust.
