OUT IN
THE WORLD

CUBE design expertise is the name of the game for the Kathmandu's Trapeze frame. Its Integrated Carrier 3.0 is designed to work seamlessly with our ACID mudguard. We've fitted a flat mount for the rear disc brake – it also accommodates the kickstand – and used Smooth Welding to give the frame joints a tidy, organic appearance. But it's not all about looks. We also equipped the rear end with a thru-axle and added a tapered head tube for improved rigidity and steering precision, even when fully laden. With Internal Cable Routing to complement the frame's clean lines, we reckon we've thought of everything. Just don't forget your toothbrush.

A bicycle is the most efficient means of getting from A to B on the planet. With the Kathmandu SLX by CUBE, we've even gone a little further in reducing our impact – by using sustainable materials in the manufacture of its front light, and recycled PET to make the mudguards. Schwalbe's fast-rolling Marathon Mondial tyres and Shimano's slick, reliable Cues 2x11 gears help speed you towards your destination, and there's a set of powerful Shimano Cues hydraulic disc brakes to ensure you can always slow and stop safely. The comfortable, easy-to-adjust RockShox Paragon Gold air suspension fork makes long days in the saddle a pleasure. And, with the Integrated Carrier 3.0, mudguards, lighting set and kickstand, you've everything you need for low-impact, low-carbon travel.
