Cube Litening AERO C:68X SLX Road Bike: UCI-Compliant Speed and Aerodynamics
The Cube Litening AERO C:68X SLX Road Bike is built for speed, precision, and aerodynamics, all within the rules of UCI-sanctioned races. This cutting-edge race bike boasts a lightweight carbon chassis crafted from Cube’s premium C:68X® carbon material, designed using Computer Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and extensively tested in real-world wind tunnels. The result is a 30% reduction in drag, housed within a fully UCI-compliant frame that seamlessly integrates the fork, stem, handlebar, and seatpost for superior aerodynamics. With clearance for 28mm tyres and a focus on comfort, this bike isn’t just fast, it’s race-day ready.
Cutting-Edge Aerodynamics and Design
The Cube Litening AERO C:68X SLX isn’t just about reducing drag; it's about offering the ultimate race experience. The frame’s C:68X carbon fibre technology combines advanced carbon fibre layering with nano-particle infused resin, creating a material that is light, stiff, and incredibly strong. Cube's Advanced Twin Mould technology ensures each carbon fibre is precisely positioned for maximum strength and minimum weight, making the frame a new benchmark in performance. The full internal cable routing further enhances aerodynamics by tucking away all gear and brake cables, giving the bike a sleek, uncluttered appearance while also reducing maintenance.
Unrivaled Speed and Precision Components
Every aspect of the Litening AERO C:68X SLX is designed for speed and control. The Newmen Streem Aero/Sprint 60/66 Vonoa wheelset strikes the perfect balance between light weight and aerodynamic efficiency. Coupled with SRAM's Red 2x12 wireless AXS groupset, you’ll experience precise shifting, superior stopping power, and a wide gear range. The built-in power meter ensures you're always in full control of your performance, making this bike the perfect partner for race day domination.
UCI Compliance for Race-Day Confidence
Fully UCI-compliant, the Litening AERO C:68X SLX meets all the regulations set by the Union Cycliste Internationale for race bikes. This means you can take it straight from training to race day, confident that your bike is built to perform at the highest level while staying within the rules. The sleek chromeblue'n'liquidblue paint scheme not only looks stunning but also reflects the bike’s high-performance capabilities.
Aero-Optimised Geometry for Maximum Efficiency
Cube’s Aero Optimised Geometry is the key to unlocking the bike's full potential. Developed through a combination of wind tunnel testing and CFD analysis, this geometry ensures the perfect balance between stability and agility. Whether you're sprinting for the finish or carving through corners, the Litening AERO C:68X SLX delivers unmatched performance in every scenario.
Lightweight One-Piece Carbon Cockpit
The bike’s one-piece carbon cockpit not only reduces weight but also offers a more streamlined riding position, mimicking the versatility of a traditional stem and handlebar setup. This weight-saving innovation ensures every watt of energy is directed toward forward momentum, giving you an edge when chasing down the competition.
