Cube Cross Race - Bike 2020 CycloCross

Cube Cross Race - Cyclocross Bike 2020 £999.99

 To the uninitiated, cyclocross can seem an odd way to spend a weekend. But we reckon the fast-paced racing, technical challenges and mixture of riding and running are a great, fun way to maintain fitness through the off season. That's why we developed the Cross Race - a bike that blends race-bred handling with comfort and agility. Low-maintenance Tektro Spyre disc brakes offer reliable, all-weather power through the worst that the winter can throw at you, while Shimano's new 105 gears, grippy Schwalbe tyres and a vibration-absorbing carbon fork complete the package. Add it all up and it makes for a great value cyclocross bike, covering all the bases from entry-level racing to winter training. Or, come to think of it, just sprinting off the lights when they turn green on your daily commute. A bike, indeed, for all reasons.

A crosser must have reliable components. That's why we chose Shimano's legendarily precise 105 groupset in combinatio with the BR-R317 mechanical disc brake system. Fitting 160mm brake rotors front and rear ensures safe stopping even in filthy conditions, while Fulcrum's Racing 77 CX wheels will stand up to rough terrain. We also added Schwalbe's Racing Ralph tyres, ensuring the best possible off-road grip without hindering forward progress.

Remarks

This Bike is raced weekly by one of our staff members, he tells us the aluminium frame is super stiff and the bike rolls extremely well, as well as the Super Smooth Shifting 22 Speed Shimano 105 Groupset. The best part of the bike is the Avid Shorty 5 brakes, which are the best working canti-brakes he has used at �900 this is the perfect bike for a cyclocross race, a sportif rider, a rider looking for a winter bike, or a commuter looking to get a cyclescheme, and still wants money left over for accessories
