Cube Elite C:68 29 SLT 29er Mountain Bike 2017 - Hardtail MTB
Cube could very well have named this bike the ‘Ultimate.’ The Cube Elite C:68 SLT hardtail is one of the fastest bikes in the world in cross country mountain bike racing.
Not all carbon is made equal, and Cube’s C:68 uses no less than 68% of the black stuff in its construction – an incredibly high amount. The result is a material with an enormous strength-to-weight ratio, giving its designers the freedom to use thinner tube walls which save weight, without sacrificing any strength or stiffness. Formed using cube’s Twin Mold technology, every single fibre sits perfectly in the right place.
RockShox set out to reinvent the MTB fork when they designed the 100mm travel RS-1. The upside down design drastically reduces the unsprung weight of the front wheel & suspension assembly, making the fork incredibly supple and responsive to small & fast bumps – exactly the kind of bumps you find on a world class cross-country trail. Unlike the upside-down forks of yesteryear, the RS-1 remains incredibly stiff around the stanchions, thanks to the Predictive Steering system which ties the front of the bike together.
SRAM’s latest groundbreaking 1x drivetrain adorns the cube Elite C:68 SLT, in all its shiny golden glory. XX1 Eagle 12 speed gearing gives you a massive 500% gear range, and the shift action & chain retention is simply sublime. Keeping the weight down is a set of Magura MT8 carbon disc brakes, with carbon calipers. Featherweight brakes with monster-sized stopping power!
