Cube's latest ride makes use of a new carbon technology dubbed C68. Flattened carbon fibers (as opposed to round) require less resin. The result is 8% more carbon and 8% less resin, which saves weight while maintaining strength. The top of the line €6999 bike here weighs 24-pounds (10.9kg). Cube will offer C68, standard carbon, and aluminum models of the Stereo 140.
Geometry is the same as in 2014, with a 67.5-degree head angle and roomy reach. An updated suspension rocker changes the suspension to be more efficient.
New CSW AM 4.7 carbon rims use 28 spokes laced to DT Swiss 240 hubs. They have a 23mm inner width, and weigh 1630g.
