Cube Access WS SLX grey n silver
Hardtail Mountainbike Women

If you've been well and truly bitten by the off-road riding bug, the Access WS SLX is going to be right up your street. Light, nimble and brilliantly equipped, it's all you need to explore further. Sram's superb NX Eagle 1x12 gears put a huge range of climb-swallowing ratios under your thumb, while powerful Shimano hydraulic disc brakes – with a larger rotor up front – keep you in full control at all times. And the RockShox Judy Silver air fork is plush, comfortable and easily adjustable to suit you. It's got your name written all over it...

Frame and equipment

The Access WS's sleek looks are thanks to its Smooth Welded head tube and seat tube junctions. It incorporates internal cable routing for reliable gear changes and lower maintenance. There's even a flat disc mount that integrates seamlessly with our kickstand mount, and integrated mounting points for ACID mudguards and carrier. Updated geometry includes a lower top tube for more confident handling, and there's plenty of room to run wide, grippy and comfortable 2.25in tyres. Our SizeSplit system has an expanded range too, so every rider can find an Access WS that fits her perfectly.

Light and manoeuvrable bikes that also cut a good figure on the extended tour. Serious competitors who don't overstrain their wallets. The large selection of shapes, colours and components means that the right hardtail is available for every type of use.

The advantages of 29 inch tires

29 inch is THE trend of the last few years, which was able to assert itself completely. Initially viewed critically by mountain bike purists and equipped with some teething troubles, the bike industry has recognized the trend and made it the new standard through continuous improvements. The advantage of the 29" tyres is the enormous running smoothness, which brings great advantages and saves power on long tours as well as uphill and downhill. Obstacles are easier to overcome due to the larger circumference of the wheels, and a greater distance is covered by turning the bottom bracket. By improvements and adjustments in the frame construction and the component selection, initial problems with the agility in the Trail and the optics of smaller frames were optimally balanced. Whether fully or hardtail, a 29 will take you far away.
