Cube Cross Race Pro 2016 - Cyclocross Bike

The cyclocross season can start! Our Cross Race Pro is the perfect choice for cyclocross enthusiasts. It's a bike that's perfectly suited to tackling the next race series over the winter, but also proven as a versatile off-season training bike. Anyone with a love for this special sport and its unique atmosphere will immediately fall this carefully crafted cyclocross bike.
Frame
The heart of the Cross Race Pro is a torsionally stiff, double butted Superlite Advanced 6061 aluminium frame. Incredible stiffness at a surprisingly low weight is achieved through the use of heat treated and mechanically formed tubes, cold forged 3D dropouts and a tapered head tube. Despite all this, it's a frame that doesn't sacrifice comfort. The race-ready geometry gives a perfectly balanced ride position, ensuring handling that's the perfect blend of agile and stable. Partially integrated cable routing is never in the way, even when shouldering the bike.
Components
The Shimano 105 groupset and brand hew BR-RS785 hydraulic disc brakes - with 160mm rotors front and rear - betray this bike's ambitions. The brakeset scrubs off speed reliably and with consistent modulation, even in the deepest mud. Fulcrum's Racing 77 CX system wheels are another highlight, while the light and stiff CUBE Cross Race Disc carbon fork contributes to this thoroughbred crosser's razor-sharp handling.
Advanced Mechanical Forming
With our Advanced Mechanical Forming technology we can mechanically transform different frame tubes and thus optimize them without material-wearing welding work for the respective requirements. Along the obtained organic look, the production method is primarily motivated by functional reasons. Multiple converted tubes enable us to manufacture lighter and also stiffer aluminum frames.
Aluminium Superlite
Extremely high tensile strength heat-treated 7005 aluminium alloy is developed for the highest requirements. It is very stiff, fatigue resistant, corrosion resistant and has high elongation. Our Superlite tubes are double butted, giving very light tubesets with a high level of stiffness.
Frame Safe System
To protect our high-end aluminium frames from damage, they are built with the CUBE Frame Save System replaceable derailleur hanger. The mounting thread is in the hanger and not in the frame as usual. In case of a crash, this hanger can be easily and quickly replaced by a new one.
Integrated Cable Routing
Internally routed cables offer many advantages. Cables are protected from dirt for longer life, weight is saved thanks to the absence of external housing and the bike has a clean, sleek appearance.
Onepiece Design
Welded joints in our high-quality aluminum frames are specially finished via this method and create the impresssion of seamless tube design. This generates the visual effect of moulding and ensures high load bearing capacity.
Tapered Steerer
This steerer tube design is stiffer than a conventional straight steerer and yields a more secure ride feel even in difficult terrain. Minimal flex at the front of the frame means the greatest possible steering precision. With the larger steerer, the forks become more rigid. At the same time weight is saved due to the absence of bearing shells as the lower bearing is fully integrated into the head tube. On all of our CUBE carbon models the upper bearing shells are also directly in the frame, so that once more a few grams are saved and the energy transfer is very direct.
Wet Paint Surface
On polished, brushed aluminium and all HPC frames, the logos and graphics are applied in multi-layer wet paint. We use this surface treatment technology mainly to save weight.
