Building one that works brilliantly is quite another. It's a good job, then, that Cubes design team's long experience with suspension kinematics means that the Stereo 120 Youth is every bit as good to ride on fast, rough trails as it is easy on the eye. You'll recognise the same kind of hydroformed frame tubes as we use on Cube adult bikes, carefully honed into two perfectly proportioned smaller frame sizes for younger riders. The short linkage, covered pivots and smooth suspension kinematics are straight from the Stereo 120 playback, too. Internal cable routing for reliable gear shifts, a replaceable gear hanger in case of accidents and a tapered head tube for ultra-precise steering are all standard. The ride and handling, on the other hand, definitely aren't. Your young ripper is going to be stoked on this...
The enthusiasm of youth is something that's worth tapping into. So when your youngster is really ready to build their skills, what better way than aboard the brand-new Stereo 120 Youth? A full-on, no-compromise version of our acclaimed Stereo 120 full-suspension platform, it's designed and equipped to allow your young trail ripper to explore their limits... and come back for more. Available in two frame sizes, the hidden frame pivots, internal cable routing and compact rocker design contribute to this bike's super-clean looks. Just like the adult model on which it's based, it's stiff and strong where it needs to be, whilst remaining light and comfortable enough for day-long adventures. Triple-butted tubes help save weight, and hydroforming ensures there's rigidity and strength where it's needed - backed up, of course, by our rigorous in-house testing. A 12-speed Sram Eagle transmission gives even young legs the gear range they need to tackle any trail, while powerful hydraulic disc brakes make sure they're always in control on the descents. The suspension is handled by a Suntour air shock and fork, making it easy to adjust its performance to suit even the lightest riders so that they can enjoy the full benefit of our four-bar design. It's a package that's guaranteed to tap into their enthusiasm and bring them back with a smile on their face, ride after ride.
