Cube Litening C:68X SLT Prizmsilver'n'grey

Rules are rules. A race bike needs to conform in order to qualify for UCI-sanctioned races. But designing a frame that’s significantly more slippery through the air, without breaking the rules? That’s completely legit. The Litening C:68X’s lightweight carbon chassis – built with the premium C:68X material – was designed with extensive use of Computer Fluid Dynamics and real-world wind tunnel testing. The result is a significant 30% reduction in drag, in a fully UCI-compliant frame that elegantly integrates fork, stem, handlebar and seatpost. It’s also extremely comfortable, power meter-ready and has clearance for tyres up to 28mm. But most of all, it’s very, very fast.

You’ve put in the miles, honed your training regime to perfection, and now it’s time to race. The Litening C:68X SLT is the bike you’ll need. Built around the high-tech carbon aero chassis with 30% drag reduction, Cube fitted Shimano’s new Dura-Ace 2×12 Di2 groupset so that you have precise gear changes and powerful braking literally at your fingertips. A Newmen Advanced STREEM wheelset features a lower profile at the front, for better handling in windy conditions. And the bike’s low overall weight and day-long comfort ensure you’ll perform at your peak, hour after hour.
