Cube Travel Pro blackgreen´n´green

The "Travel Pro blackgreen’n’green" model from Cube, released in 2022, is a versatile, high-specification bike that is particularly well-suited to urban use. Priced at 1099 EUR, it offers excellent value for money.

The frame is made from Superlite aluminium and is specifically designed for urban use. It features a tapered shape and is double-butted, resulting in an optimal balance between stability and weight. The rigid 29-inch aluminium fork complements the robust frame and ensures precise handling.

Braking performance is provided by Shimano BR-MT200 hydraulic disc brakes with 160 mm rotors at the front and rear. These offer reliable stopping power in all weather conditions. Gear changes are operated via the Shimano Alfine SL-S503 shifter, which, in combination with the Shimano Nexus SG-C6001-8D hub gear system, enables precise and low-maintenance gear selection.

The lighting is also of a high standard: At the front, the bike is fitted with the CUBE Shiny 50 front light, whilst at the rear the ACID Mudguard Rear Light PRO-D ensures visibility. Both lights are powered by a Shimano DH-3D37 hub dynamo, which provides a reliable and environmentally friendly light source.

The drivetrain components consist of a Gates S150 CDN crankset with 46 teeth and a length of 170 mm, as well as a Gates CDN sprocket with 22 teeth. The Gates CDN belt drive with 120 teeth offers a clean and virtually maintenance-free alternative to a traditional chain.

Additional comfort is provided by the CUBE Comfort Trail Bar handlebars, which are 660 mm wide, and the Natural Fit Comfort grips. The stem is a CUBE Performance Stem Pro with a diameter of 31.8 mm. The headset is a CUBE FPH868, semi-integrated, with an upper diameter of 1 1/8 inches and a lower diameter of 1 1/2 inches.

The CUBE EX21 rims are tubeless-ready and have 32 spokes, making them particularly robust. The Schwalbe Marathon Almotion tyres, size 55x622, offer excellent puncture protection and good grip on a variety of surfaces.

The saddle is a Natural Fit Sequence, mounted on a CUBE Performance seatpost with a diameter of 27.2 mm. The seatpost clamp is a CUBE Screwlock with a diameter of 31.8 mm. ACID 65 BB-Mount mudguards are fitted for added comfort and protection.

The bike is also equipped with a practical CUBEstand Cmpt kickstand and an ACID Semi-Integrated luggage rack, which is compatible with the ACID RILink adapter, thus allowing for flexible use.

Overall, the Cube Travel Pro blackgreen’n’green is a well-designed and well-equipped bike that is ideal for everyday use in the city.
