Cube Reaction C:62 29 Cross Country MTB Carbon’n’Black XL/21” (2020) Bikes

The Reaction series represents CUBE’s Formula One class of mountain bikes. Light, stiff, responsive, and built for one purpose only: to get from A to B as quickly as possible. To that end, they poured all their accumulated carbon frame-building experience into it. Short chain stays, a Boost thru axle at the rear and tapered head tube up front all contribute to impressive steering accuracy and incredibly efficient pedalling, all wrapped up in their Agile Ride Geometry for impeccable control. Fast-rolling 29er wheels make light work of the trail, aided and abetted by slender seat stays for more comfort and a RockShox Judy air fork for superb control in the rough. Cube even incorporated cable routing for a stealth dropper post upgrade, if that’s where your ambitions take you. Shimano’s superb 1×12 XT and SLX components were selected for their unparalleled gear range and legendarily smooth, reliable performance.
