2019 Cube Hyde Race Mens Hybrid Bike - Black/Green

Light, quick and comfortable, the Hyde Race is the city bike of choice for discerning riders. The silent Gates Carbon Drive is an important part of its appeal, making oil-stained clothes and regular maintenance a thing of the past. 'Race' isn't just a marketing tag that has been applied to this city slicker, it is a title which has been earnt because Cube sweated the details to make it as fast as possible on city streets. From the state-of-the-art 8 speed Shimano Alfine hub to fast-rolling Schwalbe tyres and lightweight frame, the Hyde Race is a pure bred urban speed machine.

CUBE's engineers took everything they'd learnt from building fast, lightweight mountain bike frames and put it to good use in the Hyde Race. The frame is built with torsional rigidity and efficient pedalling in mind. Double butted aluminium tubes and an advanced mechanical forming process were used to put material where it's needed for strength and removed where possible to save weight. An eccentric bottom bracket enables belt tension to be adjusted easily, and ultra-neat mudguard and luggage carrier mounts enable the easy addition of these accessories without spoiling the clean lines of your bike. The sleek, lightweight fork performs as good as it looks, giving precise and nimble steering and a surprising degree of comfort on rough city streets.
