Cube Litening C:68X Race, bianco

Rules are rules. A race bike needs to conform in order to qualify for UCI-sanctioned races. But designing a frame that's significantly more slippery through the air, without breaking the rules? That's completely legit. The Litening C:68X's lightweight carbon chassis - built with the premium C:68X material - was designed with extensive use of Computer Fluid Dynamics and real-world wind tunnel testing. The result is a significant 30% reduction in drag, in a fully UCI-compliant frame that elegantly integrates fork, stem, handlebar and seatpost. It's also extremely comfortable, power meter-ready and has clearance for tyres up to 28mm. But most of all, it's very, very fast.

Cube understand that every second counts. It's the reason that, with the Litening C:68X Race, they have built a UCI-compliant race bike around a frame that's reduced drag by 30%. Newmen Advanced STREEM wheels feature aero profiles with a shallower profile at the front, to reduce the effect of crosswinds. Shimano's new Ultegra Di2 2x12 transmission is sleek, wide-ranging and incredibly reliable. And matching Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes allow you to go faster, because you can brake later. No doubt about it: it's quick. Are you up for it?
