Cube LITENING AERO C:68X RACE Road Bike 2026
The Cube Litening AERO C:68X Race Road Bike is designed for riders who demand speed and efficiency. Built around a UCI-compliant frame that reduces drag by 30%, it gives racers the edge when every second counts. Shimano’s Ultegra crankset with an integrated 4iiii dual-sided power meter helps riders monitor performance in real time. Newmen Streem Allround 49/54 aero wheels are paired with 28mm tubeless-ready Continental Grand Prix tyres for maximum grip and speed. Ultegra Di2 2x12 gears deliver precise, wide-ranging shifts, while Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes provide the confidence to brake later and ride faster.
Litening AERO C:68X Race UCI-Compliant Aero Frame
Engineered for competition, the Litening AERO frame meets UCI regulations while maximising aerodynamic efficiency. Constructed from Cube’s premium C:68X carbon, the chassis was refined using advanced Computer Fluid Dynamics and verified in wind tunnel testing. The fully integrated design of fork, stem, handlebar, and seatpost contributes to a sleek profile, while still offering comfort and clearance for tyres up to 28mm.
