Cube Stereo ONE44 C:68X SLX frostwhite'n'black

A bike capable of devouring sections of tough, technical trail whole needn't be a weighty monster. Quite the reverse, in fact. With its advanced C:68X® carbon construction, trail-devouring geometry and kinematics and carefully curated component selection, the Stereo ONE44 C:68X SLX is a lightweight beauty.

The Stereo ONE44 C:68X SLX's advanced carbon construction, sleek lines and low weight disguise its formidable mountain-taming potential. You might get a hint of its prowess from CUBE's choice of RockShox Pike Ultimate fork and Deluxe Ultimate shock, of course. Then there's the 2.4in Schwalbe-clad Newmen Evolution SL A.30 wheels with Magura MT5 hydraulic disc brakes. A remote dropper post, naturally. And the precision and range of Sram's wireless GX Eagle AXS 1x12 gears. It's not so much a wolf in sheep's clothing, more a mountain lion ready to pounce!

FRAME Cube Stereo ONE44 C:68X SLX

Don't judge a book by its cover, so the saying goes... but the new Stereo ONE44 C:68's elegant lines are definitely more than skin deep. Speaking of which, CUBE's C:68® Advanced Twin Mold construction is a great place to start. With an emphasis on ultimate practicality and performance on the trail, it's small details like the threaded bottom bracket and a headset with angle adjustment inserts that help make the difference. There's a storage compartment built into the down tube and room for a specially designed bag to carry all your essentials. And the trunnion shock and semi-integrated seat clamp are the finishing touches to this precise, trail-devouring machine.

Technologies

Advanced Twin Mold
CUBE's Advanced Twin Mold process for the C:62®, C:68® and C:68X® carbon frames uses two precisely manufactured forms. The first form is to ensure an accurate layup. The second, inner form keeps every individual fibre precisely where it needs to be while the frame cures. The result is a significantly lighter, stronger frame, with fibre density tailored to anticipated loadings at specific points.

C:68X® Carbon Fiber Technology
Combining CUBE's entire expertise from carbon frame building into the ultimate material, C:68X® carbon uses the optimum blend of fibre and nano particle-infused resin. Precision Advanced Twin Mold manufacturing allows CUBE to avoid bonded sleeves or inserts, too. It's the new benchmark for light, stiff and strong.

Adjustable Headset Angle
When you're harnessing gravity, the trail is challenging and every second counts, the geometry of your CUBE is a critical component. That's why the adjustable headset allows you to tweak head angle, so you can set your bike up just the way you like it. A little slacker for more stability, or a little steeper for better agility. The choice is yours...

Downtube Storage
CUBE's Downtube Storage provides an ingenious way of carrying your posessions in a lockable, integrated and secure compartment. With removable dividers, a rain-proof cover and easy access, it's the ideal way to carry anything from a waterproof jacket to some snacks, a pair of gloves... whatever you need.

Carbon Stem-Handlebar-Unit
When every gramme counts, it pays to sweat the tiniest of details. The new CUBE carbon stem-handlebar-unit creates a sleek new cockpit arrangment for the Stereo One44 and One55 by combining stem and handlebar into a single sleek, strong and exceptionally light unit. It's all about the need for speed...
