15.25 kgs (33.6 lbs) for an alloy DH bike sounds almost too good to be true, yet that is exactly what Cube claim to have delivered with the new TWO15. Through the use of advanced hydroforming techniques and elaborate tube butting Cube has produced a sleek bike that felt impressively light during the old lift-the-bike test.
As you might guess from the name, the TWO15 pumps out 215-mm of travel via a Horst Link rear triangle layout. A 63-degree head angle will keep things stable in the rough, while the short 436-mm chain stays should help keep things snappy when needed. The TWO15 will ship in early 2016, and the model shown here should retail for EUR 5999.
