CYCLOCROSS
FOR
CHAMPIONS

Progress never sleeps. The Cross Race C:68X frame was developed in conjunction with the Charles Liégeois Roastery CX cyclocross team, and also took inspiration from our high-end carbon race bikes. The result is a perfectly honed structure, crafted from our top-end C:68X® carbon material for a frame that weighs less than 900g – 200g lighter than any cyclocross frame we've built before. It's still just as strong, just as stiff and just as easy to pick up and carry. It's just very, very light. An integrated seatpost clamp, Di2 cable-routing option and integrated stem with cables routed through the headset complete the package. Ready for the podium?

Highlights

Few sports demand such a combination of precision, strength and endurance as cyclocross. And that's where the Cross Race C:68X TE fits in. Wearing its distinctive Teamline colours over its premium C:68X® carbon frame and fork, this bike is built to take on the most challenging race courses.

In the thick of the mud and obstacles and chaos, you need a bike that won't let you down. That's why, with the Cross Race C:68X TE, we chose Shimano's Ultegra Di2 2x12 gears. They're reliable, precise under duress... and the crank runs on ceramic bearings and is fitted with a power meter, so you know how you're performing. Schwalbe's 33mm X-One RS tyres cut through the slop to find grip and are hooked up to a Newmen Advanced SL X.R.36 wheelset, to keep you rolling. And powerful, progressive Shimano Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes ensure it's you that's in control, not the race course. It's 100% race ready.

C:68X® Advanced Twin Mold Technology, Internal Cable Routing, Integrated Seat Post Clamp, Flat Mount Disc, AXH, 12x142mm

Our C:68® carbon achieves the impossible: lower weight and higher strength. Flat, high modulus tow spread fibres allow wall thicknesses to be reduced by up to 25%, and our Advanced Twin Mold manufacturing ensures consistency and accuracy. All you need to know is, it's an awesome material for building great bike frames.

Our Integrated Seatpost Clamp is all part of our quest to sweat the details, so that you can reap the rewards. Its minimalist design suits the frame's pared-back aesthetic. And, of course, that's important – because why wouldn't you want your bike to look great? But it also saves a few grammes too. And that matters just as much...

Full Internal Cable Routing takes the clutter of external cables and consigns it to the past. We started from scratch, designing frame and handlebars to accept gear and brake cables internally so that nothing interrupts the bike's clean lines. It's neater, it's more aero, it protects cables from damage and it reduces maintenance. All the wins.

Cyclocross Race Geometry is all about threading that fine line between speed and control, to give you the best possible chance of ending up on the podium. With handling that's quick to respond to rapidly changing conditions but stable enough to help keep you upright and rolling, it's all you need for race day.

If you want to race, there are rules. We know that, which is why all our road race bikes that could be used for racing are fully compliant with UCI regulations on bicycle design and construction. We've created a full range of high performance machines that follow the rules, so you can just concentrate on your performance...

Weight matters when you're chasing every fraction of a second. That's why our one-piece carbon cockpit has been carefully designed to mimic the range of riding positions available with a traditional stem and handlebar combo, but with a substantial weight saving. Light, strong and elegant, it's another way of making every watt count.

We know that you want to keep track of your performance stats. It's important, which is why we designed a neat, unobtrusive mount for your bike computer. Now you can record and access data wherever you ride, safe in the knowledge that your device is securely mounted and out of harm's way.

With our Advanced Twin Mold process we use two precisely manufactured forms for our C:62®, C:68® and C:68X® carbon frames. The first form is to ensure an accurate layup. The second, inner form keeps every individual fibre precisely where it needs to be while the frame cures. The result is a significantly lighter, stronger frame, with fibre density tailored to anticipated loadings at specific points.
