Elegant and sophisticated e-roadbike!
Appearances can be deceptive. The bike you're looking is undeniably elegant, as a road bike should be, but it hides a secret: the CUBE Agree Hybrid C:62 SLT is a sophisticated e-bike. Contained entirely within the sculpted flanks of its downtube is the advanced Fazua drive pack and battery, providing seamless pedal assistance via the superbly smooth Shimano Dura Ace Di2 electronic 2x11-speed transmission. Seamless gear shifts, almost effortless climbing and extended range are just some of the benefits; this is a new era in road biking. The drive system is fully removable, further adding to this extraordinary bike's appeal. A carbon fork, Newmen carbon cockpit components and Newmen Advanced SL R.38 wheelset finish off a wish-list of range-topping components. Part technological masterpiece, part object of desire... and a new classic to add to the pantheon of beautiful road bikes.
There's something to be said for not messing with a successful formula. That's why, when CUBE set out to design a standard-setting road e-bike, they wanted above all to pay homage to road riding's long history of elegant, form-follows-function design. By enclosing the sophisticated Fazua drive unit and battery entirely within the downtube, CUBE's engineering team created a stiff and strong backbone for the Agree Hybrid C:62 SLT but, just as importantly, one that also looks stunning. CUBE's premium C:62 carbon and advanced Twin Mold construction technique combine to create a frame that's surprisingly light, extremely responsive - thanks partly to 12 mm through axles front and rear - and superbly comfortable. The carbon fork and geometry tailored for comfort mean that you'll feel right at home, even on the longest rides. CUBE built in enough clearance for tires up to 35 mm and there's even scope for fitting mudguards. Redefine your expectations of what a road bike can be, then go out and ride routes you never thought possible...
-
Advanced Twin Mold - This technique uses a complete core to provide the perfect frame form during the lay-up process. As with the Twin Mold technology, precise inserts are used to ensure extra strength at high-stress frame points. This combination offers maximum control over fibre orientations during the lay-up and production process. The Advanced Twin Mold high-tech carbon manufacturing process translates to outstanding product safety and quality together with optimum weight and stiffness characteristics.
-
C:62 Carbon Fiber Technology - Frames that bear the C:62 logo, feature highly innovative developments from CUBE´s HPC technology. Through ongoing optimization of the Advanced Twin Mold manufacturing process in which the overlaps of the layups were reduced, along with the development of carbon fiber technology, they created an extremely rigid lightweight frame with a 62% fiber content.
-
Integrated Cable Routing - Internally routed cables offer many advantages. Cables are protected from dirt for longer life, weight is saved thanks to the absence of external housing and the bike has a clean, sleek appearance.
-
Frame Safe System - To protect CUBE's high-end aluminium frames from damage, they are built with the CUBE Frame Safe System replaceable derailleur hanger. The mounting thread is in the hanger and not in the frame as usual. In case of a crash, this hanger can be easily and quickly replaced by a new one.
-
Tapered Steerer - This steerer tube design is stiffer than a conventional straight steerer and yields a more secure ride feel even in difficult terrain. Minimal flex at the front of the frame means the greatest possible steering precision. With the larger steerer, the forks become more rigid. At the same time weight is saved due to the absence of bearing shells as the lower bearing is fully integrated into the head tube. On all of CUBE's carbon models the upper bearing shells are also directly in the frame, so that once more a few grams are saved and the
energy transfer is very direct.
-
Wet Paint Surface - On polished, brushed aluminium and all HPC frames, the logos and graphics are applied in multi-layer wet paint. CUBE use this surface treatment technology mainly to save weight.
