Cube Attain GTC 2016 Gents Road Bike

Frame

The CUBE Carbon Comfort Frame is an entirely new development by our engineers, who have poured a great deal of their high tech know-how into it. The rear end's slim Aero Flex Stays are designed with vertical compliance in mind so that they don't pass shocks from the road surface to the rider. This is a clear advantage on longer rides, increasing comfort and reducing the symptoms of fatigue and tension. The big volume down tube - in combination with the PressFit bottom bracket and tapered head tube - ensures that the rider's efforts are efficiently converted into forward propulsion, and that every steering impulse is precisely transmitted to the front wheel. Naturally, we also routed all the shift and brake cables internally. As we said: a true high tech frame.

Components

As a match for the high quality frame, we selected Mavic's Aksium system wheelset. The full Shimano 105 groupset is a masterpiece of technical understatement, uniting the functionality and shifting performance of Shimano's high end components with superb durability and reliability. The gear range makes use of a 50 tooth large chainring and a 2x11 setup - if the climb gets ever steeper, 34 to 32 teeth will save the day. Completing the ergonomic rider setup are the CUBE Performance Post and Wing Race Bar.
