Here at Cube we love a challenge, so building a race bike that's as aero as possible within UCI rules is exactly the kind of thing that we relish. And here's the result: the Litening AERO frame. Built with our premium C:68X® carbon material and designed with extensive use of Computer Fluid Dynamics and real-world wind tunnel testing, it's now lighter and faster than ever. Around 150g lighter than before for frame and fork, to be precise. And reduced drag by up to 6 watts. Those are differences you can see in your results. With a Cube IC Aero Max Cockpit, redesigned aero seatpost, clearance for up to 34mm tyres, a future-proof UDH rear end and full compatibility with all Cube one-piece cockpits, it's got everything you need to race, faster.

There's a subtlety to the Litening AERO C:68X SLX's oceanfibre'n'prizm paint finish – a glazed, blueish look with hints of spiderweb – that whispers of the awesome technology beneath. As aero as possible, lighter than ever and built from our premium C:68X® carbon, the race-proven components are the finishing touch to this blisteringly quick, mile-devouring machine.
