Cube Nuroad C:62 SLT

Gravel Bike Cube Nuroad C:62 SLT

Ultimate race performance with CUBE carbon frame tech and high-end components

The Nuroad C:62 frame takes everything we know about carbon frames, repackages it in a format that's optimised for gravel racing, and adds the same one-piece carbon aero cockpit that we use for our Litening Air road race bike. There's ample frame clearance for tyres up to 50mm, while an integrated seat clamp and fully-integrated cable routing complement the frame's elegant, organic appearance – and the C:62® carbon fork has two carrier mounting positions. And the overall weight for all this? Just 1,150g for a mid-sized frame. So it's tough, but also extremely light. The ideal basis for a new approach to gravel racing.

Zero compromise. That was our goal with the Nuroad C:62 SLT, and that's what we achieved. The sleek, light and tough C:62® carbon frame and fork are just the beginning. We added a one-piece carbon aero cockpit – the same one we use for our Litening Air road race bike – and Sram Red AXS hydraulic disc brakes, so you're always in control. Sram Red AXS 1x13 gears deliver a huge range of closely-spaced gear ratios with seamless precision, while the Sram Red crankset with 42T chainring has a built-in power meter to enable you to measure your performance, whether for training or mid-race. And fast-rolling Schwalbe 45mm G-One RS Pro tyres on Newmen Advanced SL X.R. 36 Vonoa carbon wheels keep you hooked up and moving toward the finish line, faster than you imagined possible.

• C:62 CARBON FIBER TECHNOLOGY - Not all carbon is created equal. With our C:62® carbon we increased the high modulus fibre content, then we reinforced the resulting material with nanoparticles incorporated into the bonding resin. Which is all just a fancy way of saying it's extremely strong, light and durable.
• OPTIONAL LOW RIDER - Adventure sometimes demands different kit. That's where our low rider rack mounts come in. Designed to accept an optional fork rack, they're a great way to carry up to 10kg of additional weight for extended tours. Not only that but carrying some of your luggage over the front wheel helps improve weight distribution and handling. Win, win.
• GRAVEL ENDURANCE GEOMETRY - For gravel epics – or races – into the back country and beyond, our Gravel Endurance Geometry is designed with you in mind. With a ride position optimised for long days in the saddle and frame angles and dimensions geared towards the perfect balance of agility and stability, it's all you need for off-road adventure.
• 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.
• ADVANCED INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING - Gear and brake cables need a way to get from handlebar controls to frame – but what if there was no need for holes near the head tube? We came up with a design that takes cables into the frame via the headset, maintaining full internal cable routing but making it even neater and less obtrusive.
• INTEGRATED SEATPOST CLAMP - Our Integrated Seatpost Clamp is all part of our quest to sweat the details, so that you can reap the rewards. Its minimalist design suits the frame's pared-back aesthetic. And, of course, that's important – because why wouldn't you want your bike to look great? But it also saves a few grammes too. And that matters just as much…
• 3RD BOTTLE CAGE MOUNT - Because the Nuroad C:62 is built for adventure, we added a third bottle cage mount under the down tube. Use it for carrying tools and a spare inner tube, or carry another water bottle – the choice is yours. Either way, you're all set for extended exploring.
