The Litening AERO C:68X SLX's blend of low weight, long-haul comfort and wind tunnel-tested, UCI-compliant aerodynamics gives you a head start that is sure to make a tangible difference to your results. A Newmen Allround 49/54 Vonoa wheelset wrapped with 28mm Continental Grand Prix 5000 S-TR tyres combines aerodynamic design with light weight. Meanwhile Sram's Red 2x12 wireless AXS groupset puts a wide gear range and awesome stopping power at your fingertips – and, with its integrated power meter, you're on top of your performance at all times. Put it all together with a frame and fork set-up that's 150g lighter and 4 to 6 watts more efficient than before, and it's a great recipe for helping you break free of the bunch.
Frame description
Here at CUBE we love a challenge, so building a race bike that's as aero as possible within UCI rules is exactly the kind of thing that we relish. And here's the result: the Litening AERO frame. Built with our premium C:68X® carbon material and designed with extensive use of Computer Fluid Dynamics and real-world wind tunnel testing, it's now lighter and faster than ever. Around 150g lighter than before for frame and fork, to be precise. And reduced drag to the tune of between 4 and 6 watts. Those are differences you can see in your results. With a CUBE IC Aero Max Cockpit, redesigned aero seatpost, clearance for up to 34mm tyres, a future-proof UDH rear end and full compatibility with all CUBE one-piece cockpits, it's got everything you need to race, faster.
