CUBE Stereo ONE44 C:62 Race (2024)

CUBE Stereo ONE44 C:62 Race

Don't judge a book by its cover, so the saying goes... but the new Stereo ONE44 C:62's elegant lines are definitely more than skin deep. Speaking of which, the C:62® Advanced Twin Mold construction is a great place to start. With an emphasis on ultimate practicality and performance on the trail, it's small details like the threaded bottom bracket and a headset with angle adjustment inserts that help make the difference. There's a storage compartment built into the down tube and room for a specially designed bag to carry all your essentials. And the trunnion shock and semi-integrated seat clamp are the finishing touches to this precise, trail-devouring machine.

You don't get to the top of the class by copying everyone else, which is why the Stereo ONE44 C:62 Race forges its own path. Carbon C:62® construction means it's svelte, whilst the Fox 34 Factory fork and Float DPS Factory shock help tame even the rowdiest of trails. We chose Newmen's tough, fast-rolling Evolution SL A.30 wheels and fitted Maxxis tyres for superb grip and control, aided and abetted by Shimano's powerful XT hydraulic disc brakes. And finished it all off with a dropper post, a Praxis Girder carbon crank and Shimano's ultra-reliable XT 1x12 gears. It's practically unstoppable.
