Expirience with the CUBE PHENIX C:68X SLT

Ludwig Döhl When it comes to riding on sporty excursions, the CUBE PHENIX C:68X SLT feels really good. With lean 8,5 kg, the CUBE Hardtail is among the lightest bikes in this category. Anyone who has no concrete preferences when it comes to handling, can´t go wrong with the CUBE PHENIX C:68X SLT. Because his handling is pleasantly balanced. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. On the way to the summit, the CUBE lets it rip. With its 520 bandwidth on the gears and the overall athletic alignment, the on sporty excursions competitors got some catching up to do.
