The Nulane takes the road bike rule book and lobs it into the nearest gutter, because different can also be great. Flat bars, road bike DNA, a responsive frame and carbon fork add up to easy speed. Luggage carrier and mudguard mounting points equal practicality. It’s an urban assault speed machine with your name on it.
Key Features
- 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.
- A gravel bike is a supremely versatile beast, which is why all our gravel models have a fender and rack option. With generous frame clearances to fit comfortable, safe and grippy tyres even with full length mudguards, we also neatly integrated the rear rack into the mudguard design – and included a rear light, too.
- Combining everything we know about building great-riding off-road bikes, Gravel Comfort Geometry is the secret ingredient that makes our gravel series such a blast to ride. Nimble enough to mix it up in the rough, stable enough for reassuring descents and with comfort for the long haul, we’ve got it all covered.
- 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.
