Drag-reducing, performance-enhancing, competition-busting carbon racing perfection
At CUBE we know that every second counts. That’s why, with the Litening AERO C:68X Race, we’ve built a UCI-compliant race bike around a frame that’s reduced drag by 30% – and fitted a crankset with a power meter. Newmen Advanced wheels feature aero profiles with a shallower profile at the front to reduce the effect of crosswinds. Shimano’s Ultegra Di2 2×12 transmission is sleek, wide-ranging and incredibly reliable. And matching Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes allow you to go even faster, because you can brake later. No doubt about it – it’s fast.

| Frame Description | Rules are rules. A race bike needs to conform in order to qualify for UCI-sanctioned races. But designing a frame that's significantly more slippery through the air, without breaking the rules? That's completely legit. The Litening C:68X's lightweight carbon chassis – built with our premium C:68X® material – was designed with extensive use of Computer Fluid Dynamics and real-world wind tunnel testing. The result is a significant 30% reduction in drag, in a fully UCI-compliant frame that elegantly integrates fork, stem, handlebar and seatpost. It's also extremely comfortable, power meter-ready and has clearance for tyres up to 28mm. But most of all, it's very, very fast. |
