Updated geometry includes a lower top tube for more confident handling, and there's plenty of room to run wide, grippy, and comfortable 2.25-inch tires.

Best of all, SizeSplit makes it easy to find the perfect fit for every rider – and the frame is even ready to accept a future dropper post upgrade. To create the Nuroad we took inspiration from our race and cyclocross bikes, then threw a little mountain bike DNA into the mix. There's plenty of clearance for big, grippy, and comfortable 45mm tires – or 40mm if you run mudguards at the same time. There's an integrated seat clamp, exceptionally tidy rack, guard, and kickstand mounts, and neat internal cable routing to keep gear shifts grit- and mud-free for longer. Thru-axle wheels improve steering accuracy, even on the roughest roads. And, the full carbon fork isn't just lightweight – it also helps reduce vibration from the road and features lowrider rack mounts. Flexibility is important for a bike that's going to slot into your life. That's why, for our Semi-Integrated Carrier Mount, we designed a system that's unobtrusive when you don't need it and really simple to use when you do. By adding our Semi-Integrated Carrier your CUBE can take on the shopping, your commute, or take you further afield at the weekend... The right bike should fit you perfectly. That's why we created SizeSplit. For shorter riders, the smaller 27.5-inch wheel standard allows us to build frames that fit well while remaining agile and sure-footed. And, for taller riders, we built a range of sizes around the fast-rolling 29er wheel standard. Whichever one you choose, you can be sure of a fit that makes your bike feel as though it was built just for you. Wheel size: - Sizes X-Small – Small: 27.5-inch - Sizes Medium – XX-Large: 29-inch
