You know how it is. You've put in the miles over the winter, honed your training to perfection and marked off all the race weekends in the calendar. Now all you need is a bike that's up to the task - and that's where the Cube AMS 100 C:68 SL 29 comes in. It's designed to perform in the toughest of race conditions, so that you can realise your true potential. The chassis sets the standard for low weight and exceptional stiffness, but we didn't stop there. We specced Kashima-coated Fox components for trail-taming suspension performance, light and strong Newmen cockpit parts for steering precision and comfort, a Cube carbon saddle for gramme-shaving comfort... and Shimano's unmatched XTR transmission and brakes. The only thing missing is you.
We've more than a decade and a half's experience making fast, light cross-country full suspension bikes. Everything we've learnt during that time has gone into this frame. From the Boost148 rear end and tapered head tube - which contribute to the AMS 100's superlative pedalling efficiency and uncannily accurate steering - to the superlight C:68 carbon construction with Advanced Twin Mold technology, everything about this frame serves one purpose: to make it the fastest way to get from A to B cross-country. Di2 compatibility means it's future-proof, internal cable routing keeps gear shifts clean even on the muddiest of race courses, and the stealth appearance is given a helping hand by hiding bolts and pivots away.
