• Cube Sting WLS 120 Pro Full Suspension BikeIn Cube’s experience, women like to shred the trails just as hard as men. That’s why they developed this Sting WLS 120 Pro Full Suspension Bike – a real trail bike that’s been designed around female riders. With a lightweight frame and cutting edge 2×11-speed setup, you’ll be able to enjoy everything from long rides to fast blasts Comfortable and Responsive Aluminium FrameThis is the latest incarnation of the proven Sting full suspension platform with 120mm of smooth travel, a triple butted 7005 Superlite aluminium tubeset and nippy handling. Cube has managed to pull out all the stops to make the Sting WLS 120 Pro Full Suspension Bike fun to ride, blending inspiring performance with surprising comfort. The lower top tube doesn’t just look good; it also increases manouevrability, adds stiffness and reduces weight Reliable ComponentsThe Manitou Minute air suspension fork with 120mm travel offers optimum performance with easy adjustment for an individual rider’s weight and riding style, all wrapped up in the lightest possible package. The high-quality theme continues with Shimano’s XT transmission – the precise XT derailleur, compact chainset (26/36T) and 11-42T cassette can’t be beaten for versatility and super-reliable shifting, time after time. Matching Shimano XT disc brakes provide superb braking performance, while comfort and lively handling are ensured by the ergonomic WLS saddle and female-specific cockpit with Riser Bar and comfortable grips Features:Frame:ŒæHPA Ultralight, Advanced Hydroform, Triple Butted, ETC 4-Link, AXHFork:ŒæManitou Minute TS Air, HexLock SL 15mm Axle, Tapered, 120mmShock: Manitou Radium Expert RL, 184x44mm, Rebound Adjust, LockoutShock Hardware: Top: 30x8mm, Bottom: 22x8mm Headset:ŒæFSA 1.5E ZS, Tapered, Top Zero-Stack 1 1/8″ (OD 44mm), Bottom Zero-Stack 1 1/2″ (OD 56mm)Stem:ŒæCube Performance Stem Pro, 31 8mm Handlebar:ŒæCube Rise Trail Bar Pro, 720mm Grips:ŒæCube Natural Fit Race Front Derailleur:ŒæShimano XT FD-M8020-D, Direct Mount, Side Swing Rear Derailleur:ŒæShimano XT RD-M8000-DSGS, ShadowPlus, 11-Speed, Direct Mount Shifters:ŒæShimano SLX SL-M7000 Brake System:ŒæShimano XT BR-M8000, Hydr.

It is only necessary to tighten the axle from one side. The position of the wheel is done by an insert in the right-hand dropout which is secured by a bolt. The main advantages of the Syntace system are quick and simple changing of the wheel, reliable position of the brake disc and higher stiffness of the rear of the bike. This allows the assembly to be made lighter than a conventional through-axle. Aluminium Superlite: Extremely high-tensile strength heat-treated 7005 aluminium alloy is developed for the highest requirements. It is very stiff, fatigue resistant, corrosion resistant and has high elongation. Cube’s Superlite tubes are double butted, giving very light tubesets with a high level of stiffness High Performance Aluminium: For Cube’s high-end bikes they have use High Performance 7005 Aluminium alloy which has a very low density combined with high strength due to the alloy elements and the hardening heat treatment. By triple butting or even quadruple butting to give different wall thicknesses in one tube, aluminium tubes are reinforced where required and made lighter where possible. In this way, Cube succeed in getting material where it is needed most. In addition, they use special tube shapes, manufactured with hydroforming technology to better cope with directional forces. The low density and high strength as well as the butting and the hydroforming technology enable them to make high-performance frames with an ultimate level of stiffness. Agile Trail Geometry: The Agile Trail Geometry carries over the Agile Ride Geometrys benefits but with more focus on aggressive trail use. This can be achieved through a more compact frame construction with an even lower top tube and improved standover height. The result is more freedom of movement on the bike for the rider and a lower centre of gravity which guarantees agile handling and more riding fun Integrated Cable Routing: Internally routed cables offer many advantages. Cables are protected from dirt for longer life, weight is saved thanks to the absence of external housing and the bike has a clean, sleek appearance Press Fit BB: With Press Fit bearings, the bottom bracket bearings are pressed directly into the frame and not screwed in as usual. This gives a wider bottom bracket shell and allows Cube to build a wider downtube and more broadly spaced chainstays. Every millimetre of additional width gives a significant improvement in lateral stiffness Stealth Ready: Dropper seatposts are getting more and more widespread, but to integrate them optimally in the frame, they have to be factory fitted. With the Stealth Ready frames, it is possible to build in a dropper seat post with internally routed cables, which besides the clean look, helps prevent any cables getting jammed. The exit of the cable on the frame, if not required, will be sealed with a cover for protection. Woman Like Series: New WLS models come with different wheel sizes for different frame heights. The 14 and 16″ frames have 27 5″ wheels, the 17,19 and 21″ frames are built as 29ers. Depending on body height, every woman gets the perfect riding character and geometry. The models of Cube’s Woman Like Series feature a compact frame geometry with shorter top tubes and longer headtubes, giving a riding position that is more upright than on the mens models. This riding position relieves the pelvis and offers more comfort. The top tubes of the WLS mountain bikes are lowered, making the bike more comfortable and safe to mount and dismount. Efficient Trail Control: Cube’s Efficient Trail Control series works so that everyone can have more fun on the trail. With 27 5″ and 29er wheel options, their frames cover the widest range of riding on every terrain you can imagine. The low leverage ratio and linear rate curve makes the bike very sensitive, avoids bobbing and offers full usable travel all the time. Steep seat tube angles and slack headtube angles make these dream machines ready for action on the descent where you can use the full amount of travel to be on the safe side. Tapered Steerer: This steerer tube design is stiffer than a conventional straight steerer and yields a more secure ride feel even in difficult terrain. Minimal flex at the front of the frame means the greatest possible steering precision. With the larger steerer, the forks become more rigid. At the same time weight is saved due to the absence of bearing shells as the lower bearing is fully integrated into the headtube. On all of Cube’s carbon models the upper bearing shells are also directly in the frame, so that once more a few grams are saved and the energy transfer is very direct Easy AssemblyWhen you order a bike, one of our trained mechanics will carefully prepare and pack your bike for shipping.
