Cube Axial WS GTC SL 2018 Road bike Iridium/Aqua

The Axial GTC SL is the bike of choice for riders who want to keep chipping away at their personal best. Built around our Axial GTC frame's renowned handling and long distance performance, we added a selection of the best components to ensure that you're always riding at your peak. Smooth Shimano Ultegra gears, powerful hydraulic disc brakes for all-weather stopping and light, stiff, and strong Fulcrum Racing 55 Disc wheels all combine to extract the very best from the high tech carbon frame and, more importantly, from you. Light, fast and comfortable: the Axial GTC SL is all three of these, perfected.

The GTC carbon frame, precision-manufactured using our Twin Mould technology, has a perfect stiffness to weight ratio designed specifically to maximise the rider's performance. Oversized main frame tubes with extra large cross-sections at the head tube, a tapered head tube, PressFit bottom bracket shell and 12mm through axles front and rear all work together to ensure efficient pedalling and precise, confidence-inspiring steering. Thin seat stays and vibration-absorbing carbon fork blades add a noticeable degree of comfort, even on longer riders. The Flat Mount standard has enabled us to streamline the disc brakes' appearance by integrating them discretely, and performance-orientated geometry provides a stretched, efficient ride position so that you can realise your full potential and make the best of the bike's lively handling.
