What do you do to improve the ride of a great bike that already features great components? You fit better brakes. The Reaction SLX's Shimano XT hydraulic disc brakes' powerful, progressive control doesn't just help keep you safe, it also helps you ride faster and have more fun. Combined with the smooth control of the RockShox Recon Silver air fork and easy shifting and huge range of the Shimano XT 1x12 gears, you're pretty much all set. The Schwalbe Racing Ralph 2.25in tyres - fast-rolling, smooth and grippy - round out the complete trail exploring package. The Reaction's sleek looks are thanks to its Smooth Welded head tube and seat tube junctions. It incorporates a threaded bottom bracket and Internal Cable Routing, plus a flat disc mount that integrates seamlessly with Cube's kickstand mount and integrated mounting points for Acid mudguards and carrier. Trail-ready geometry includes a lower top tube and tapered head tube for more confident handling, and there's plenty of room to run wide, grippy and comfortable 2.25in tyres. And, as your skills increase, there's scope to fit a dropper post upgrade.
