Cyclocross racing may be an acquired taste, but the Cross Race is an ideal introduction to this fast, challenging and accessible sport. With a frame that's specifically designed with 'cross racing in mind, handling that blends stability with pace and components that'll last the course, it's a whole bundle of muddy fun.

The Cross Race is your ticket to muddy fun and off-season fitness. With a light, tough aluminium frame and vibration-damping full carbon fork, it offers a blend of comfort and control in the rough and tumble of cyclocross racing. Shimano's Tiagra 2x10-speed transmission has the range you need at your fingertips, and there are powerful and easy-to-adjust mechanical disc brakes to ensure you're always in control. A Cube wheelset - built with care in-house right here in Germany - and Schwalbe tyres designed to cut through the mud complete the package.

The Cross Race's aluminium frame is a breed apart. Designed to be both light and tough, we added 12mm thru axles front and rear to ensure that stiffness and steering precision are on the money for race-winning control. A full carbon fork helps filter out high-frequency buzz and vibration, helping you to concentrate to the end of the race. And internal cable routing ensures that your gear shifts remain clean and precise from start to finish, no matter how filthy the conditions.

Features

Cube's Aluminium Superlite starts with heat-treated 6061 aluminium, which has the qualities - high fatigue resistance, good stiffness, low weight and excellent strength - that are important for a bicycle frame. Then we make it into double butted tubes, to reduce weight without sacrificing any of its strength. The result? Exceptionally light, strong and tough frames.

Advanced Mechanical Forming is a way of manipulating tube shapes to better fulfil their function as part of a frame. Varying cross-sections and external dimensions helps create a smoother look for a frame, but it's also a great way to increase the strength, stiffness and durability of a frame without increasing weight.

Smooth Welding isn't easy, but worthwhile things usually aren't. It has two advantages. First, and most obviously, it looks great: one tube seems to almost flow into the other. Second, and at least as importantly, it helps to minimise load peaks on welded areas for better frame strength and durability.

Cables connect your handlebar controls to vital components like gears and brakes, but there's no need for them to get in your way. With Internal Cable Routing we've reduced clutter and maintenance by running cables through the frame, keeping them out of the way of dust and water contamination - or damage from abrasion - as well as cleaning up your bike's appearance.
