Cube Kathmandu SLX mysticgraphite'n'reflex
Product information "Kathmandu SLX mysticgraphite'n'reflex"
A bicycle is the most efficient means of getting from A to B on the planet and, in its own way, the Kathmandu SLX is a celebration of that fact. Schwalbe's fast-rolling Marathon Mondial tyres and Shimano's legendary XT 1x12 gears help speed you towards your destination, and there's a set of powerful Shimano Cues hydraulic disc brakes to ensure you can always slow and stop safely. The comfortable, easy-to-adjust RockShox Paragon Gold air suspension fork makes long days in the saddle a pleasure. And, with the Integrated Carrier 3.0, mudguards, lighting set and kickstand, you have everything you need for low-impact, low-carbon travel.

FRAME: Cube Kathmandu SLX
If ever there was a bike frame to prove that form and function can co-exist, the Kathmandu is it. Extra-smooth welding creates joints between the High Performance Aluminium tubes that are so flawless, one tube flows almost organically into the next – and Internal Cable Routing complements the clean aesthetic. But it's not just about looks. Our sturdy Integrated Carrier 3.0 works seamlessly with the ACID mudguard, which also incorporates a rear light to accompany the included front light and mudguard. The UDH gear hanger is strong and future-proof, whilst the flat mount kickstand means you'll never struggle to find somewhere to park. And we even fitted extra mounting points on the frame, to make it easier to add extra bags, accessories and water bottles. Because you never know what you might need...

Trekking Comfort Geometry
With our Trekking series, you can satisfy your thirst for discovery – and, thanks to Trekking Comfort Geometry, you’ll also sit on the bike in a completely natural, comfortable and relaxed position! Another advantage is the stable and reliable handling, whether you’re carrying luggage or not. The fact is: the name says it all – for adventurers and anyone who wants to become one!
Advanced internal cable routing
Shift and brake cables always run from the respective controls on the handlebars to the corresponding components on the bike – usually through openings near the head tube. What if you could simply do without the latter? Cube has developed a design in which the cables are routed through the headset into the frame. Whilst they still run entirely inside the frame, the overall look is much tidier, more attractive and less obtrusive.
Aluminium Superlite
CUBE’s Aluminium Superlite is a heat-treated 6061 aluminium alloy and offers precisely the properties that are essential for bike frames: fatigue resistance, high stiffness, low weight and exceptional stability. The double-butted tube sets save even more weight without compromising stability or stiffness. The result: extremely light, durable and robust frames.
Child seat
If you want to take your little ones along, the matching CUBE child seat (available as an optional extra) is quick to fit and offers all the safety features you’d expect from a high-quality child seat.
