    Summary

    Expirience with the CUBE STEREO 120 HPC EX

    CUBE STEREO 120 HPC EX Review The STEREO 120 HPC EX is one of the most aggressively priced trail bikes in the world. Hardly any model promises more riding pleasure at lower prices. On the scale, the CUBE Fully with 13,2 kg looks good. Most Trailbike in the price range until under 4500 Euro are heavier. The moderate 67 degree head tube angle ensures a balanced handling. Compared with what the market offers, the seating position is neither super sporty, nor uber-comfortable. In the saddle of the CUBE STEREO 120 HPC EX, you´ll enjoy a moderate position. Considering that in the range under 4500 Euro, hardly any other manufacturer makes a better bike for the same specs of wheels. Nice!
