Cube Cross Race C:62 SLT Blue Grey / Orange 2020 £3499.00

You'll know when cyclocross has really got to you, because you won't be able to wait until the weekend comes around again. The Cross Race C:62 SLT was developed for cyclocross aficionados with mud running through their veins: ultralight, perfectly formed and equipped with the simple goal of winning in mind. Built with our premium C:62 carbon, our engineers sweated the details to save weight wherever possible. So, for example, they removed the need to reinforce the down tube by routing cables straight into the head tube. Not only does this shave precious grammes, it also eliminates cable rub and makes shouldering and running with the bike quicker and easier. Combined with the full carbon fork, geometry that's all about razor-sharp handling on the race course and a full selection of race-worthy components, the result is little short of astonishing. Sram's wireless Force AXS 1x12 groupset offers mud-proof gear-shifting precision, an incredible range of ratios and assured, predictable stopping via hydraulic disc brakes. Light, stiff and strong Newmen Advanced wheels shod with grippy Schwalbe tyres cut through mud for the best possible drive and control, while Newmen Advanced carbon cockpit components are the perfect match for the frame's impeccable credentials. Indulge your winning streak - race the Cross Race C:62 SLT.

Remarks

Light, lighter, lightest. When saving every gramme is the goal, every single detail matters. We knew that choosing our premium C:62 carbon was a good start, but the Cross Race C:62 needed something special to set it apart. The answer came from an unusual direction: our engineering team decided to route cables internally via the head tube, rather than the usual down tube routing. This approach fulfilled two goals. First, it created an incredibly clean look and eliminated any cable rub. And second, it meant we didn't need to reinforce the down tube to the same extent as usual, saving even more weight. Internal cable routing uses custom inserts which can be swapped out easily, so you can run electronic, wireless or traditional cable-actuated gears. Combined with the full carbon fork and race-bred geometry designed for quick, precise handling, the Cross Race C:62 is proof that the devil really is in the detail.
