Product description
Cube's Axial range comprise of a group of road bikes that all share the same DNA: a lightning fast, great value and super-responsive speed machine designed for demanding riders. This particuar model is from its womens specific range which feature design tweaks to suit the female form. The 'Race' spec featured here is a complete, performance-orientated package, so that you can concentrate on getting the best out of your training, riding and racing. From the Shimano Tiagra 2x10 transmission to the beautifully crafted aluminium frame, carbon-bladed fork and Cube wheelset, every detail is designed with comfort and speed in mind. For 2018 Cube have even upgraded the brakes to hydraulic discs, giving you superb all-weather stopping power and the confidence to get out and ride year-round. What are you waiting for?
Speed demands stiffness, but comfort requires a subtler approach. The Axial Race blends both, making it a formidable mile-munching companion. The double butted Superlite aluminium chassis features an oversized, cross-ovalised down tube, tapered head tube, PressFit bottom bracket and 3D forged dropouts optimised for disc brakes. All of these details contribute to its impressive rigidity, meaning that every ounce of your effort goes into propelling the bike forward. The carbon fork blades and slender seat stays, on the other hand, are specifically designed to improve comfort and help filter out vibration - so you can ride in comfort for longer. Internal cable routing is the finishing touch, complementing the frame's clean lines and reducing the need for maintenance.
