CUBE Hyde (2021)

CUBE Hyde

Two wheels make a whole bunch of sense if you want to beat city traffic. The Hyde's light weight, clean lines and rugged design are inspired by our line of 29er mountain bikes. Fast-rolling Schwalbe tyres are well suited to street use, while powerful Shimano hydraulic disc brakes serve up huge reserves of stopping power, whatever the weather throws at you. Slick Shimano 3x9 gears give you the range to tackle any route, and a rigid fork helps keep steering precise and weight low.

Frame

City cycle couriers in the 80s and 90s used mountain bikes for a reason. Drawing inspiration from our 29er hardtails, the Hyde's frame uses double-butted aluminium tubes to create a structure that's strong, durable, light and lively. Neatly integrated luggage carrier and mudguard mounting points make it easy to customise, and there's room for two water bottles for longer rides at the weekend. The sleek rigid fork is the perfect accompaniment, offering crisp, precise steering to match its low weight and understated looks.
