Cube Nulane Trapeze

Cube Nulane Trapeze

Take the race-inspired DNA of our road bikes, throw in some flat bar practicality and what do you have? The Nulane, that's what. Powerful flat mount Tektro disc brakes offer progressive, reassuring stopping power in any weather conditions. Shimano's reliable and smooth-shifting Claris 2x8 gears ensure you're always in the right gear. And the comfortable, lightweight full carbon fork helps smooth your way, even on rougher roads. Commuter, trainer or explorer: where will your Nulane take you today?

There's a lot to be said for the Trapeze version of our versatile Nulane – it's comfortable, practical and easy to mount and dismount. But that's not the whole story, because the detail is important, too. Superlite double-butted aluminium frame tubes and a full carbon fork help keep the weight down. There are mounting points for simple mudguard and front and rear carrier upgrades. And the thru axles front and rear are a technical touch that you'll appreciate, because they keep the handling safe, secure and predictable whether you're carrying a load or not.

• ALUMINIUM SUPERLITE - 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.
• 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.
• CARBON FORK - How important is material choice? When it comes to the fork that holds your front wheel, more important than you might think. Not only is our Carbon Fork exceptionally light and strong, it's also surprisingly comfortable to ride. And, when you're weaving your way through city streets, those are all qualities that you'll appreciate.
