The Attain GTC SL Disc is a masterpiece of both aesthetics and function. This high performance race bike combines the sublime comfort and superb acceleration of a high tech carbon frame with the safety of the latest disc brake technology - the ultimate high speed endurance machine. Shimano's peerless Ultegra gears, compact and elegant brand new Shimano 105 disc brakes and a Fulcrum Racing 66 wheelset blend with the taut, elegant but surprisingly comfortable carbon frame to make a genuine long-distance mile-muncher. Efficiency, comfort and performance: it's all in the Attain GTC SL Disc's genes.

Optimising a frame for disc brakes is both art and science. As part of the process Cube chose a 12 mm axle system both front and rear to improve rigidity. The forces involved also necessitate a specially designed fork which, together with the Attain GTC SL Disc's tapered head tube, creates an enormously stiff and precise structure. But Cube hasn't forgotten comfort, which is just as important for sustained performance. The fork's carbon blades work together with slender Flex Stays at the rear to help filter out energy-sapping road shock, reducing fatigue even on long rides and bad road surfaces. This way, the rider benefits from a smooth ride, accurate steering and incredible efficiency... all rolled into one. Internally routed cables match the frame's Gran Turismo-inspired sleek looks, as well as minimising maintenance. Full length mudguards are an easy addition, if the need arises - an option that Cube built in because even hardened racers like to stay dry on long training rides in poor weather.
