Cube Attain Race Alloy Disc Road Bike 2017

The smooth, light and powerful brake system actually means you can go faster, by braking later into corners.

It also adds a reassuring dose of all-weather reliability for race or training rides, allowing you to concentrate on your performance without worrying about wet roads.

And, of course, the Attain Race Disc also has the lively handling and balanced geometry that you'd expect from Cube.

Frame: The Attain Race Disc shares its superlite aluminium frame - built using Cube's Smooth Welding manufacturing process - with its rim brake stablemate, but Cube modified it to work brilliantly with discs. The rear end's clean looks are matched by its ability to absorb road shock and vibration without sacrificing transmission efficiency.

And the carbon fork - which, like the frame, will accept tyres up to 28mm - also features a specially designed mount for the front disc caliper. A tapered headtube, Press. Fit bottom bracket and a specially shaped, oversized downtube all help ensure every single pedal stroke counts.

And taking the trouble to route cables internally, reducing abrasion and increasing service life at the same time have enhanced the clean looks afforded by disc brakes.

Components: That Attain Race Disc features Shimano's versatile, all-round 2x10 Tiagra group, complete with 160mm discs front and rear for smooth, assured stopping in any weather conditions. An 11-34 tooth cassette and compact crank with 50 and 34 tooth chainrings gives a gear range that'll easily tackle both the steepest climbs and the fastest descents.

Disc brakes demand special attention from wheels, which is why Cube's engineers selected Fulcrum's Racing 77 wheelset and fitted them with super-grippy Continental Ultra Sport 2 tyres - superb acceleration and stopping, on any road surface.
