When Cube set out to develop a new ultralight race bike with Team Wanty, the Litening AIR C:68 SLX was what they had in mind. Slippery through the air, comfortable enough to race all day and weighing in at around 799g for a mid-sized frame, it’s the UCI-compliant speed machine you’ve been looking for.
Shimano Ultegra Di2 with built-in power meter handles stop and go duties, while carbon-spoked Newmen Advanced carbon aero wheels – shod with Continental tyres and ultralight Schwalbe Aerothan tubes – help keep the rubber side down even as the speed increases. The ultimate race machine? You decide.

Weight, there’s less… with carbon aero performance and UCI accreditation. An aero bike that reduces wind resistance is great, but a race bike should also – of course – be as light as possible. So, with the brand-new Litening AIR C:68X, Cube worked with Team Wanty to develop a frame from the premium C:68X carbon that combines the best of both worlds. At around 799g for a mid-sized frame it’s svelte enough to easily build a UCI-compliant 6.9 kg bike, but it’s still slippery through the air and comfortable for long days in the saddle. The overall weight saving on a classic road bike is a difference you can clearly feel – and see in your results!
