Expirience with the CUBE REACTION C:62 ONE

CUBE REACTION C:62 ONE Review
Ludwig Döhl
The REACTION C:62 ONE is one of the cheapest carbon hardtails out there. Most manufacturers still use aluminum frames in this price range. A low weight means more rideability on different terrain. If the manufacturer's indication is right, the 11,5 kg of the CUBE Hardtail counts towards the lighter Racebike that you get for under under 2000 Euro. When it comes down to handling, CUBE does not compromise. With its balanced handling style, the REACTION C:62 ONE is ready for the majority of singletrails. The upright seating position gives the Racebike von CUBE a comfortable character. The way to the summit is not one of the strengths of this bike. A good argument for the Racebike von CUBE: Such a successful geometry is usually only available if you have deep pockets.

Geometry

Je steiler der Winkel des Sitzrohrs ist, desto effizienter können Sie in die Pedale treten.
