Very high tensile strength 7005 aluminium alloy; requires heat treatment; is developed for the highest requirements; very stiff and fatigue resistant; corrosion resistant; nonshearing; triple butted which makes it suitable for the lightest tube-sets with a maximum of stiffness.

To protect our high-end aluminium frames, they are built with the CUBE Frame Save System replaceable derailleur hanger. The thread is in the hanger and not in the frame as usual. In case of a crash, this hanger can be easily and quickly replaced by a new one.

The Postmount breaking absorption makes it possible for us to save extra parts. The not needed IS adapter with bolts saves approx. 30 g. This may not seem much, but it shows the potential comprised in the details.

Internally routed cables offer many advantages: clean appearance, cables are protected from dirt and therefore have a considerably longer life and the not required external housing saves weight.

The colour of our aluminium frames with Eloxal finish is reached by anodising (a chemical process). After this treatment, the aluminium is 1000 times more scratch-resistant than before.
