The 2027 Cube Nulane C:62 SLX is for riders who want the speed of a road bike without the drop-bar position. A C:62 carbon frame and full carbon fork bring the weight down to 9.6kg, and the flat bar gives an upright, confident position that works as well in traffic as it does on a country lane. As a result, it’s one of the quickest genuinely practical bikes Cube makes.
Cube’s Advanced Twin Mold construction produces a frame that’s light and lively without being harsh over rough surfaces. Crucially, it hasn’t been built as a pure performance bike: there’s clearance for 50mm tyres, or 45mm with mudguards fitted, plus a full set of rack, mudguard and kickstand mounts. Furthermore, the matching full carbon fork carries lowrider mounts, so front luggage is an option too.
A Shimano Cues 1×11 drivetrain with an 11-50T cassette gives a very wide spread of gears, which suits a bike likely to be ridden loaded and on hills as well as flat out. Cues was designed for durability and long service intervals rather than minimum weight, which is exactly right for a bike used year-round. Because it’s a single-ring setup, the cockpit stays simple and there’s nothing extra to adjust.
The Newmen Performance R.32 wheelset is tubeless ready with thru-axles front and rear for accurate, confident steering. Schwalbe G-One R Pro 45mm tyres roll surprisingly quickly for their width and provide genuine grip on gravel and forest tracks. Consequently, the Nulane C:62 SLX is happy leaving the tarmac in a way most fitness bikes simply aren’t.
A 660mm Cube Flat Race Bar gives a position that’s fast but far easier to hold than a drop bar, with better visibility and more immediate braking. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors provide consistent, low-effort stopping in all weathers. It’s a straightforward, well-judged build with nothing that needs changing straight away.
We’re an independent bike shop in the heart of the New Forest, and the Nulane C:62 SLX is the bike we suggest to riders who want road-bike speed but have never got on with drop bars. Our team is always happy to help with sizing and setup advice. Get in touch on 01425 403584 or at info@newforestcycling.com.
