WHICH CIRCUIT SHOULD A GOOD CUBE ROAD BIKE HAVE?

Short and sweet:

• Select a switching system according to individual preferences
• Cube road bikes are usually equipped with Shimano gears
• Electronic circuits are more expensive, but faster and more precise

Whether or not you feel comfortable with a certain circuit depends heavily on your preferences and your individual riding style. If possible, you should try different shifting systems before deciding on one. 

Our road bikes from Cube are usually equipped with innovative Shimano gears.
When does an electronic circuit make sense? This question can not be answered generally. Advantages such as lightning-fast and precise shifting are offset by disadvantages such as significant additional costs and a certain additional weight.

The same applies here: test whether electronic shifting systems suit you. On our Cube racing bikes, you will only find electronic gears (e.g. the Shimano Ultegra Di2 RD-6870) built into high-end bikes.

ALUMINUM OR CARBON – WHICH FRAME SHOULD A CUBE ROAD BIKE HAVE?

Short and sweet:

• Good frame quality important
• Aluminum frames especially for entry-level and mid-range bikes
• Carbon frames, especially for high-end racing bikes

When choosing a frame, you should pay particular attention to quality and good workmanship. The key question is: aluminum or carbon? Carbon frames convince on many levels: they are light, offer high rigidity, and good shock absorption. 

Aluminum frames have a great price advantage and also have good driving characteristics thanks to constantly improving manufacturing processes.
Of course, you can also choose between aluminum and carbon for our Cube racing bikes. Aluminum frames predominate, especially in the area of ​​entry-level and mid-range models. Carbon frames dominate in the high-end sector.

In general, we recommend aluminum frames for racing bikes up to 1500 euros, as these are often superior in quality to the corresponding carbon frames.

HOW SHOULD THE HANDLEBARS OF CUBE RACING BIKES BE MADE?

Short and sweet:

• When buying, pay attention to the perfect fit
• Optimization of the seating position via the stem
• Carbon handlebars with better suspension properties

Very important when choosing the handlebars: They should fit your stature and the physiognomy of your hands perfectly. This is the only way you can enjoy a high level of driving comfort, which pays off, especially on longer tours. You can use the stem of the racing bike to further optimize your seating position.

In terms of material, carbon has advantages over aluminum. Carbon handlebars are very light, and they also have better suspension properties in the event of vibrations. See Cube Gravel bike for sale online

 Aluminum handlebars have slightly poorer properties overall but are also significantly cheaper. In the high-price segment, our Cube racing bikes are equipped with carbon handlebars (e.g. the FSA SL-K Compact).

WHAT SHOULD YOU CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING WHEELS?

Short and sweet:

• Lower rims score points for weight and acceleration
• Higher rims score points for aerodynamics and stability
• Aluminum rims also dominate in the high-end segment

The weight of the rim also depends on its height. Therefore, a 20 mm rim is usually lighter than a 40 mm rim and has better acceleration properties. The higher rims, on the other hand, score in the area of ​​aerodynamics. They are also more stable, which makes them particularly attractive for taller and heavier racing cyclists.

Carbon rims are rather rare. Even our high-end racing bikes from Cube have aluminum rims, with a few exceptions. The reason: carbon rims are lighter, but they have poorer braking behavior, especially on wet roads – a disadvantage that only extremely expensive carbon rims can remedy.

THE TIRES OF CUBE ROAD BIKES – WHAT YOU SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO

Short and sweet:

• Important aspects: rolling resistance, weight, puncture protection
• Tires should always be at the correct pressure
• Standard widths: 23 and 25 mm

Basically, a good road bike tire has various features: low rolling resistance, low weight, and high puncture protection. But even the entry-level racing bikes from Cube have reliable tires, such as the Conti Ultra Sport 2.

A small practical tip: Always make sure that the tire pressure is correct. This is the only way the tires can fully exploit their strengths.
The standard width of road bike tires is 23 or 25 mm. The latter inspires great rolling behavior. However, the larger width requires a certain additional weight. But the same applies here: Choose the tire that you feel most comfortable on! In our online shop, you will find Cube road bikes with 23 and 25-mm tire widths.
