Overview
Cube Editor SLX
Life can be hectic in the city, so the Editor strips things down to the essentials... without sacrificing style. Designed around the low maintenance of a clean, quiet belt drive, the lightweight double-butted aluminium frame – inspired by our 29er mountain bike hardtails – features carefully crafted tube joints for an almost seamless, organic appearance. Fully integrated cable routing complements the pared-back aesthetic, and the light and svelte C:62® carbon fork is the perfect accompaniment. Mudguard and kickstand mounting points are included, and the frame is compatible with our neat and strong Semi Integrated Carrier 2.0. It's everything you need to thrive in the city.
Built for easy speed through the urban jungle with a side serving of effortless style, the Editor SLX is all about keeping things simple and streamlined. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes and grippy Schwalbe Motion Big Apple 55mm tyres help keep you safe, whatever the weather. The C:62® carbon fork gives nimble, reassuring handling and matches the smooth, sculpted lines of the lightweight aluminium frame perfectly. And there's a low-maintenance Shimano Alfine 11-speed hub gear with clean, quiet Gates carbon belt drive, so the right gear for the road is always at your fingertips.
Technologies
CUBE's Aluminium Superlite starts with heat-treated 6061 aluminium, which has the qualities – high fatigue resistance, good stiffness, low weight and excellent strength – that are important for a bicycle frame. Then we make it into double butted tubes, to reduce weight without sacrificing any of its strength. The result? Exceptionally light, strong and tough frames.
Cables connect your handlebar controls to vital components like gears and brakes, but there's no need for them to get in your way. With Internal Cable Routing we've reduced clutter and maintenance by running cables through the frame, keeping them out of the way of dust and water contamination – or damage from abrasion – as well as cleaning up your bike's appearance.
At CUBE we believe even a functional bike should be attractive. The carrier and mudguard mounting points for our Nature series are designed specifically to provide a strong, secure anchor point for these useful accessories. But they're also unobtrusive and elegant, so your bike still looks great.
City streets are the natural home of our urban bikes, so we gave them geometry to match. Nimble for weaving safely through traffic, with ideal weight distribution for great grip and safe braking and cornering, Urban Geometry is precisely what you need to help you navigate the mean streets safely... and beat the gridlock.
