Expirience with the CUBE STEREO ONE44 C:68X SLX 29

CUBE STEREO ONE44 C:68X SLX 29 Review
Ludwig Döhl
Admittedly: It was time that CUBE his STEREO ONE44 C:68X SLX has missed a fresh cell cure. The predecessor drove with its small 27.5 inch wheels an EWS victory, but had after more than 5 years on the market clearly dust on his frame. With 29er wheels, storage compartment in the lower ear, space for two bottle cages and completely new design language Cube breathes the current STEREO ONE44 C:68X SLX exactly the values that are currently demanded on the market for all-mountain bikes. 12,6 kg is great value for the total weight of a All Mountain. On all kinds of trails, the All Mountain von CUBE therefore rides significantly lighter-footed than its competitors. The trend towards more high speed stability geometries stops with CUBE. Good! Because with this balanced handling model, you are equipped for all situations on the trail. Compared with what the market offers, the seating position is neither super sporty, nor uber-comfortable. In the saddle of the CUBE STEREO ONE44 C:68X SLX, you´ll enjoy a moderate position. Finally, here is another killer argument: in price range on demanding single tracks, the STEREO ONE44 C:68X SLX is one of the best models in the on demanding single tracks category.
