Cube AMS ZERO99 C:68X SLX 29

In racing, speed matters. With the AMS ZERO99 C:68X SLX 29, the premium carbon frame construction is just the start. Sram's 12-speed X0 Eagle Transmission delivers every shift to perfection, backed up by Magura's powerful MT8 SL hydraulic disc brakes to keep you in control. We fitted a pair of Newmen Phase 30 carbon wheels for their low weight and rapid acceleration, then added grippy Schwalbe Racing Ray and Racing Ralph 2.35in tyres. A Fox 34 Float Factory SC Grip SL fork delivers 110mm of ground-smoothing travel up front, plus exceptional steering accuracy. It's backed up by a Fox Float SL Factory shock at the rear. And a Fox Transfer dropper post makes those riskier line choices that little bit more rapid.

• C:68X CARBON FIBER TECHNOLOGY - Combining all our expertise from carbon frame building into the ultimate material, C:68X® carbon uses the optimum blend of fibre and nano particle-infused resin. Precision Advanced Twin Mold manufacturing means we can avoid bonded sleeves or inserts, too. It's the new benchmark for light, stiff and strong.
• FSP4Link - Suspension kinematics is vital to your bike's performance. At CUBE we use the FSP 4-Link for all our full suspension bikes, with a chainstay pivot and four bar suspension design. It's a proven method for creating active rear wheel travel independent of pedalling or braking forces. We carefully refine pivot placement for each bike depending on its intended use, so you can be sure of outstanding suspension performance on the trail.
• ADJUSTABLE HEADSET ANGLE - When you're harnessing gravity, the trail is challenging and every second counts, the geometry of your CUBE is a critical component. That's why our adjustable headset allows you to tweak head angle, so you can set your bike up just the way you like it. A little slacker for more stability, or a little steeper for better agility. The choice is yours…
• UNIVERSAL DERAILLEUR HANGER - One standard for all: gear hanger replacement made easy thanks to the innovative Universal Derailleur Hanger. With a design that includes some room for pivoting to help prevent chain jams, it improves shifting performance and works with all drivetrains. Best of all, it's a standard part that is available anywhere.
• ADVANCED TWIN MOLD - With our Advanced Twin Mold process we use two precisely manufactured forms for our C:62®, C:68® and C:68X® carbon frames. The first form is to ensure an accurate layup. The second, inner form keeps every individual fibre precisely where it needs to be while the frame cures. The result is a significantly lighter, stronger frame, with fibre density tailored to anticipated loadings at specific points.

*Because of ongoing problems in the delivery chain, the bike can be delivered with modifications.
