Cube Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC Race 625, gris/negro

Big days out demand a reliable frame and components. That's why, for the Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC Race 625, the starting point was a RockShox 35 Silver Air fork and matching Deluxe Select+ shock plugged into a carbon main frame. Combined with tenaciously grippy Schwalbe 2.6in tyres, new Sram DB8 four-piston hydraulic brake calipers with mineral oil, and a remote dropper post, they're what you need to tackle anything the trail throws your way with complete confidence. Add fourth-generation Bosch CX power with Shimano's super-reliable XT 1x12 gears, and you've got the complete package to make light of any mountain trail.

Evolution never stops. That's why, across all frames in the SizeSplit system, the Stereo Hybrid 140 HPC now features the ability to house up to a 625 Wh battery under its dust- and splash-proof cover. It means you can power the fourth-generation Bosch CX drive unit – with 85Nm of hill-devouring torque – on long rides, whatever frame size fits you best. The Boost 148 rear axle, large pivot bearings and All Mountain Geometry deliver assured handling, even when you're exploring the limits of the 140mm rear and 150mm front travel. Sram's UDH gear hanger helps protect against crash damage and is easily replaceable. And Integrated Cable Routing reduces maintenance and complements the clean lines of the full carbon main frame.
