Cube Attain C:62 SLT – the carbon frame in detail

The frame of the Cube Attain C:62 SLT is made of high-quality carbon (C:62®), which offers an optimum ratio of stiffness, weight and resilience thanks to a high proportion of highly modular fibres and nanoparticle reinforcement. Production using the Advanced Twin Mold process enables precise fibre routing, resulting in a particularly stable and lightweight road bike frame weighing just 1,150 g.

The semi-aerodynamic tube shape, the integrated cable routing through the headset and the minimalist seatpost clamp ensure a clear, functional design and reduce air resistance. A well thought-out detail for everyday use: there are two rivets (mounting points) under the top tube, which are ideal for mounting a small bag, tools or CO₂ cartridge – perfect for longer road bike tours or training rides with light luggage.

Tyre clearance on the Cube road bike: More comfort for long road tours

A decisive advantage of the Cube Attain C:62 SLT is the generous tyre clearance of up to 34 mm. This means that the Cube road bike can easily be fitted with wider road bike tyres – ideal for anyone who, in addition to classic training rides, is also out and about on rougher roads or on longer road bike tours.

Compared to traditional road bikes, this wide compatibility enables a noticeable improvement in comfort, grip and control without compromising the direct, sporty riding feel.

Anyone looking for a road bike that also harmonises with 30 to 32 mm wide tyres will find a well thought-out solution here – with the necessary leeway for more ride quality and flexibility in everyday life and training.

Shimano Ultegra Di2 – electronic shifting for precise road biking

Equipped with the electronic Shimano Ultegra Di2 12-speed drivetrain, the Cube Attain C:62 SLT shows what modern shifting performance can look like today. Gear changes are almost noiseless, direct and without delay – whether you are pedalling uphill or at high speed on the straights.

The electronic shifting system does away with Bowden cables and responds at the touch of a button – intuitive, low-maintenance and reliable. Anyone who rides longer distances or regularly speeds up during training will quickly appreciate the clarity and precision.

Shimano’s Di2 technology is no longer only used in the Ultegra, but is now also available in other groupsets such as the Shimano 105. If you are interested in the differences between the current road bike groupsets or would like to better understand the features of a modern endurance road bike, you will find more in-depth content in our further articles.

Then there are the Ultegra BR-R8170 hydraulic disc brakes, which are characterised by precise modulation and high stability. Especially in wet conditions, on technical descents or on rough tarmac, they provide the necessary control – smoothly, consistent and predictably.

The overall package stands for technology you can rely on – not spectacular, but consistently functional.

Newmen Advanced carbon wheels on the Cube Attain C:62 SLT

The Newmen Advanced A.38 carbon wheels are a real highlight on the Cube Attain C:62 SLT. The wheels are not only lightweight and aerodynamically shaped, but also extremely torsion-resistant – a clear advantage when starting off, accelerating and on fast sections.

With 21 spokes at the front and rear, tubeless-ready rims and a profile specially developed for long distances, they deliver exactly the riding experience that ambitious racing cyclists appreciate: direct feedback, secure handling in fast bends and stable lines on descents.

In combination with the Continental Grand Prix 30-622 tyres, the result is a setup that is designed for speed and precision, but with enough damping to remain comfortable even on longer distances. If you’re looking for a bike that responds to acceleration but doesn’t get on your nerves in everyday use – you’ll find it here.

Cube Attain C:62 SLT – the road bike for high standards and endurance

The Cube Attain C:62 SLT combines technical precision, high-quality equipment and balanced handling – and not just on paper. In the Roadbike comparison test, it was able to assert itself as a price-performance tip against well-known competitors. Anyone who rides it quickly realises: the geometry fits, the components work together harmoniously and the overall combination feels well thought out on every kilometre.

Whether for intensive training, a sporty road bike tour or a quick after-work ride – this road bike remains consistent, responsive and reliable. The Cube Attain C:62 SLT is a clear recommendation for all those who demand more from every ride.
