Cube Nature SLX Trapeze
A lighter bike is one that's better to ride. That's the reason for the Nature's double-butted aluminium tubes, which reduce weight without sacrificing strength or durability. Clearance for tyres up to 50mm wide allows for a more comfortable ride and a tapered head tube ensures precise steering. Sleek luggage carrier and mudguard mounting points and Smooth Welding frame joints complement the frame's good looks and make it easy to upgrade to suit your needs. You can rest assured that, as with all our frames, the Nature has passed all our stringent in-house safety tests. It's in it for the long haul.
A great bike should let you explore without getting in the way. That's why, with the Nature SLX, we started with a lightweight aluminium frame and added an easily adjustable air-sprung Suntour fork, so even longer riders are comfortable. Then we added Shimano Cues 2x11 gears, whose wide range and easy shifting help you tackle any route. Matching Shimano Cues hydraulic disc brakes and grippy 50mm Schwalbe Marathon Mondial tyres give you the power you need to control your speed and come safely to a stop whenever you need to, even in wet weather. And unobtrusive mounting points for mudguards and a luggage carrier make it simple to expand your bike's versatility.
Technologies
- MOUNTING POINTS – 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.
- SEMI INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING – Cables for your gears and brakes are essential, but you don't necessarily want to see them all the time. Our semi internal cable routing takes gear and brake cables through the down tube for a cleaner appearance, smoother shifts and reduced maintenance. So your CUBE bike looks good and continues to function as it should, and you just concentrate on enjoying the ride.
- SMOOTH WELDING – Smooth Welding isn't easy, but worthwhile things usually aren't. It has two advantages. First, and most obviously, it looks great: one tube seems to almost flow into the other. Second, and at least as importantly, it helps to minimise load peaks on welded areas for better frame strength and durability.
- TREKKING CROSS GEOMETRY – You never quite know where the road less travelled will lead you. It could be smooth, or gravel, or dusty and full of potholes. That's what our Trekking Cross Geometry is designed to handle: any road, in any condition, any time. With plenty of room for grippy, wide tyres and handling that's both nimble and safe, you're in good hands wherever you're headed.

CUBE is one of Europe's most successful bicycle brands, founded in 1993 by Marcus Pürner in the small Bavarian town of Waldershof in the Fichtel Mountains of Germany. The origin story is modest and very German in its practicality: still a student, Marcus started in a 50-square-metre corner of his father's furniture factory, sourcing frames from Asia and assembling them locally with high-quality components — initially just to fund his university studies. Over three decades that small workshop has grown into one of Europe's largest bicycle producers, with products sold in more than 60 countries and around 1,000 people working under the brand today. Unlike many top-level competitors, CUBE remains an owner-managed family business — Marcus Pürner still leads the brand to this day, which means decisions are made for the long term, not under the pressure of quarterly results for stock-market shareholders. The heart of CUBE is still in Waldershof: the state-of-the-art 35,000-square-metre factory opened in 2016 employs 600 people working two shifts and assembles up to 4,500 bikes per day — making CUBE one of the most productive bicycle assemblers based in Europe. Next door, in the company headquarters, the brand's engineering team handles all frame design, geometry calculation and component selection. Every component goes through a double quality check — once during production and again at CUBE's own test lab, which has dedicated rigs for road and mountain bike testing (for example, frames are loaded with forces equivalent to a sprint). The range is extremely broad — over 400 different models, covering everything from city and kids' bikes to e-bikes, gravel, MTB and full-on professional road racing machines — supported by an in-house clothing and accessories collection. In top-level sport, CUBE is currently the main bike supplier to the Belgian WorldTour team Intermarché–Wanty, and the brand's own action team supports enduro and DH racing as well as triathlon top performers (including multiple Ironman world champion Lucy Charles-Barclay). The CUBE philosophy is simple: solid German engineering at a fair price — "Cube your Life".
