KATHMANDU SLT

KATHMANDU

It’s the detail that makes the Kathmandu SLT from CUBE so special. It’s designed to be comfortable, which is why we began by fitting a smooth RockShox Paragon Gold air suspension fork. The sturdy elegance of the Integrated Carrier 3.0 is matched by the straightforward practicality of the ACID mudguards, lighting set and kickstand. Powerful Shimano Cues hydraulic disc brakes work with the smooth-rolling and grippy Schwalbe Marathon Mondial tyres to bring you safely to a halt, whatever the weather. And the icing on the cake is Shimano’s Cues Di2 Q’Auto 1×11 gears, which shift automatically as you pedal… so you’re always in the right gear. Powered by a simple rear hub dynamo system, there’s no need for you to do anything… but ride. Freedom on two wheels…

Frame description
If ever there was a bike frame to prove that form and function can co-exist, the Kathmandu is it. Extra-smooth welding creates joints between the High Performance Aluminium tubes that are so flawless, one tube flows almost organically into the next – and Internal Cable Routing complements the clean aesthetic. But it’s not just about looks. Our sturdy Integrated Carrier 3.0 works seamlessly with the ACID mudguard, which also incorporates a rear light to accompany the included front light and mudguard. The UDH gear hanger is strong and future-proof, whilst the flat mount kickstand means you’ll never struggle to find somewhere to park. And we even fitted extra mounting points on the frame, to make it easier to add extra bags, accessories and water bottles. Because you never know what you might need…
