What kind of road bike is right for you?

Before making a final decision, it’s important to determine your goals on the road. Cube offers different types of road bikes, grouped into categories suited to your riding style:

  • Aerodynamic Road Bikes (Aero) : These models are developed in wind tunnels and tested in competition. They offer aerodynamic perfection, minimizing air resistance for maximum efficiency.

  • Climbing Bikes : Races are won and lost on long climbs. Lighter bikes climb better, making this category essential for cyclists tackling steep ascents.

  • Endurance Road Bikes : For long distances, you want a sporty yet comfortable riding position. On an endurance bike, the riding position is slightly more upright, allowing you to stay in the saddle longer with greater comfort.

  • Comfort Road Bikes : No matter the distance, the most important thing is having fun. These bikes are designed to offer a forgiving and comfortable ride, without any discomfort.

Cube's flagship models

Cube Litening: The Racing Bike

In elite sports, the main source of resistance isn’t the body but the air. The Cube Lightning® series is designed to cut through the wind while complying with UCI standards. Two models stand out:

  • Litening AERO C:68X : Thanks to CFD and wind tunnel testing, this model reduces drag by 30%. Its C:68X® carbon frame is perfectly integrated. Paired with electronic groupsets like Shimano Ultegra Di2 or SRAM Red AXS, it’s designed to dominate the peloton.

  • Litening AIR C:68X : Designed to defy gravity, its frame weighs just 799 g in size M. Some models weigh as little as 6.6 kg. It combines lightness, comfort, and climbing performance.

For those torn between speed and comfort, the Cube Agree offers an excellent compromise. Made from C:62® carbon, it combines aerodynamics, comfort, and vibration damping. It also features a built-in storage compartment under the top tube.

Transmission and brakes

Cube bikes are equipped with the latest technology, featuring Shimano (105, Ultegra Di2, Dura-Ace Di2) or SRAM (Apex, Rival, Force, Red AXS) drivetrains. The top-of-the-line models offer electronic drivetrains and, in some cases, an integrated power meter.

All models are equipped with powerful hydraulic disc brakes , ensuring effective braking in all conditions.

How do I choose the right frame size?

Frame size is crucial. A bike that doesn’t fit properly will compromise your efficiency and comfort. Measure your height accurately and choose the right model from the wide range of sizes available.
