Your bike should be a pleasure to ride, which is why we pulled out the stops to make the Nature's frame as light as possible without sacrificing strength. The secret is double-butted aluminium tubes, with Smooth Welded joints for a neat, tidy finish. It's all tested in our in-house lab, so you can be assured it's up to the job. We built in clearance for tyres up to 50mm in width, which helps ensure a comfortable ride. There's a tapered head tube for precise steering, and sleek luggage carrier and mudguard mounting points for future upgrades. It's everything you need for carefree days out in the countryside.

Nothing quite beats the feeling of bowling along a country lane on two wheels at the weekend. With its lightweight frame, easy handling and reliable Shimano components, the Nature SLX is your gateway to that sense of freedom and adventure.

Features

• Trekking Cross Geometry: You never quite know where the road less travelled will lead you. It could be smooth, or gravel, or dusty and full of potholes. That's what our Trekking Cross Geometry is designed to handle: any road, in any condition, any time. With plenty of room for grippy, wide tyres and handling that's both nimble and safe, you're in good hands wherever you're headed.
• Mounting Points: At CUBE we believe even a functional bike should be attractive. The carrier and mudguard mounting points for our Nature series are designed specifically to provide a strong, secure anchor point for these useful accessories. But they're also unobtrusive and elegant, so your bike still looks great.
• Smooth Welding: Smooth Welding isn't easy, but worthwhile things usually aren't. It has two advantages. First, and most obviously, it looks great: one tube seems to almost flow into the other. Second, and at least as importantly, it helps to minimise load peaks on welded areas for better frame strength and durability.
• Semi Internal Cable Routing: Cables for your gears and brakes are essential, but you don't necessarily want to see them all the time. Our semi internal cable routing takes gear and brake cables through the down tube for a cleaner appearance, smoother shifts and reduced maintenance. So your CUBE bike looks good and continues to function as it should, and you just concentrate on enjoying the ride.
