Priced at 6549 EUR, it belongs to the premium class of mountain bikes and offers a wide range of features that appeal to both ambitious recreational cyclists and professional riders.

The bike’s frame is constructed using C:68 Monocoque Advanced Twin Mold Technology and, thanks to ATG, ETC 4-Link, ISCG Mount, Boost 148 and AXH, offers outstanding stability and stiffness whilst weighing just 12 kg in total.

These offer excellent braking power and reliability in all conditions. Gear changes are handled by the SRAM X01 Eagle™ AXS 12-speed system, which is controlled by the SRAM Eagle AXS™ controller and ensures precise and rapid gear changes.

The Fox 36 Float Factory FIT GRIP2 fork, with 160 mm of travel and a Kashima coating, and the Fox Float DPX2 Factory rear shock, also Kashima-coated, offer outstanding suspension performance and adaptability to different types of terrain. The SRAM X01 Eagle™ carbon crankset with a 32T chainring and Boost standard, together with the SRAM XG-1295 cassette with a range of 10–52T, ensure optimum power transfer and pedalling efficiency.

The Race Face Next R 35 carbon handlebars, 800 mm wide, and the Race Face Turbine R 35 stem offer excellent control and ergonomics. The SDG Thrice grips provide additional comfort and grip. The VP Integrated headset ensures precise steering of the bike.

The tyres are Maxxis Minion DHF at the front, MaxxTerra/EXO, Tubeless Ready in size 2.5 WT at the front and Maxxis Minion DHR II, MaxxTerra/EXO, Tubeless Ready in size 2.4 WT at the rear, ensuring outstanding grip and stability. The Newmen Advanced SL A.30 carbon wheelset, with 28 spokes at the front and rear and tubeless-ready capability, contributes to the bike’s lightness and stiffness.

The SDG Radar Ti saddle and the Fox Transfer Factory seatpost with Kashima coating and a 150 mm travel (125 mm for size S) ensure comfort and flexibility. The CUBE Screwlock seat clamp, with a diameter of 34.9 mm, rounds off the overall package.
