2018 Cube Elite C:62 Race Hardtail Mountain Bike - Blackline

The Elite C:62 Race is an uncompromisingly high performance carbon speed machine, but that doesn't mean versatility has been sacrificed on the altar of speed. The superbly light, efficient frame is the obvious choice for cross-country and marathon racing, but it's also a great option for any rider who just enjoys getting the best out of their fitness. For 2018, it has been paired with an exclusive selection of components incuding a 2x11 Shimano XTR gear setup, XTR hydraulic disc brake and Fox 32 Performance fork. Combined with a Newmen carbon handlebar and seatpost and Newmen wheelset with 25mm width rims, it's everything you need to go racing... or just to ride hard and fast.

The Elite C:62 Race benefits from an advanced twin mould technology, which gives the best possible control over the lay-up of the premium C:62 carbon fibres. The result is a frame that's both stiff and extremely light, thanks to smart design features including an oversized, tapered head tube with integrated carbon bearing shells, oversized PressFit bottom bracket shell and 12mm through axle dropouts. Developed specifically to offer racers the best blend of stability and performance, an Agile Ride Geometry (ARG) gives the Elite C:62 Race extraordinary levels of playful manouevrability and steering precision, making it a surprisingly fun trail and race companion. And, as you'd expect, the cables have been routed internally to keep gear shifting clean and precise with minimal maintenance.
