To the uninitiated, cyclocross can seem an odd way to spend a weekend. But we reckon the fast-paced racing, technical challenges and mixture of riding and running are a great, fun way to maintain fitness through the off season. That's why Cube developed the Cross Race - a bike that blends race-bred handling with comfort and agility. Low-maintenance Tektro Spyre disc brakes offer reliable, all-weather power through the worst that the winter can throw at you, while Shimano's new 105 gears, grippy Schwalbe tyres and a vibration-absorbing carbon fork complete the package. Add it all up and it makes for a great value cyclocross bike, covering all the bases from entry-level racing to winter training. Or, come to think of it, just sprinting off the lights when they turn green on your daily commute. A bike, indeed, for all reasons.

Cube's design team loves sweating the details. It's the reason you'll find thoughtful touches on the Cross Race, like the specially shaped, ergonomic top tube to make for easier carrying. Double butted Superlite Advanced 6061 aluminium tubes, optimised via elaborate mechanical form, build into a structure that's both light and stiff. Combined with 12 mm thru axles front and rear, it means you can be sure that the Cross Race will respond instantly to your every input. Moreover, there's a focus on comfort - slender seat stays and a precise-steering, comfortable carbon fork developed specially for cyclocross work together to reduce rider fatigue. Race-ready geometry provides a balanced ride position, ensuring handling that's the perfect blend of agile and stable.
