Cube Acid 200 Disc black´n´green

The ‘Acid 200 Disc black’n’green’ model from Cube, released in 2024, is a robust yet lightweight children’s bike that impresses with its high-quality features and attractive design. The price for this model is 529 EUR.

The bike’s frame is made from Aluminium Lite 6061, contributing to a total weight of just 9 kg. The maximum rider weight is 40 kg, providing sufficient stability and safety for young riders. The rigid aluminium fork ensures direct and precise steering.

For the brakes, Cube has opted for the Tektro HD-M282 hydraulic disc brake system with 160 mm brake discs at the front and rear. These brakes offer reliable stopping power and good modulation, which is particularly beneficial for children.

The gear system consists of a Shimano RD-TY300 rear derailleur with 7 speeds and a Shimano SL-RS45 Revoshift shifter, which allows for simple and intuitive operation. The Samox crankset, with 36 teeth and a crank arm length of 127 mm, is fitted with a chain guard to protect the rider’s clothing. The Sunrace MFM300.7 cassette offers a gear ratio of 13–34 teeth, ensuring a good range for different types of terrain. Power is transmitted via a KMC HV500 chain.

The handlebars, stem, seat post and saddle clamp are made from CUBE Aluminium Lite, which helps to further reduce weight. The handlebars are 560 mm wide and fitted with Velo grips, which provide a secure grip. The saddle is a model from CUBE designed specifically for children, combining comfort and ergonomics.

The rims are also made of aluminium and fitted with 2.1 CUBE IMPAC Smartpac tyres, which ensure good grip and riding comfort. The front and rear hubs are made of aluminium and fitted with quick-release (QR) mechanisms, making it easier to change wheels.

The bike is rounded off by CUBE Kid pedals, which are specially tailored to the needs of young riders. Overall, the Cube Acid 200 Disc black’n’green offers a well-thought-out, high-quality package that impresses in terms of both safety and riding enjoyment.
