Cube Reaction GTC SL 29 (2014)

A high-performance carbon 29er hardtail with all the advantages of the bigger 29in wheels but as agile as a 26in bike. Optimum stiffness to weight value results from the tapered head tube with integrated headset. The GTC carbon frame is produced using the Twin Mold Monocoque Technology. The oversized tube diameters of the head tube and the PressFit bottom bracket guarantee optimum lateral stiffness. The post mount rear brake saves weight. Internal Cable Routing delivers clean appearance and dirt protection. The sophisticated 100mm Fox 32 Float CTD FIT air fork delivers fun on the trail, with descent, trail and climb, and adjustable rebound. The DT Swiss CSW MA 1.9 wheelset is especially lightweight and stiff for fast acceleration, while Schwalbe Rocket Ron/Racing Ralph Kevlar folding tires are very lightweight with low rolling resistance and optimum traction. All components are from the Shimano XT 3x10 series and are super reliable. The Syntace F149 stem is sturdy and long-lasting, while the 720mm CUBE Flat Race Bar offers perfect 29in handling.
