The Reaction C:62's frame condenses everything our engineering team has learnt about high-performance carbon frame construction into a light, strong and impressively responsive chassis. Crafted from our premium C:62 carbon using our Advanced Twin Mold manufacturing process, it's a masterpiece of minimalist perfection. The short rear end with Boost thru axle and Agile Ride Geometry creates a lively, responsive ride feel while an integrated headset and PressFit bottom bracket save precious grammes without sacrificing performance. Slim seat stays and a 27.2mm seat post help ensure you'll stay comfortable for longer, even when you're giving it your all. And internal cable routing keeps gear shifts clean and precise in even the worst riding conditions, reducing the need for maintenance and ensuring you never miss a shift. We even remembered to include cable routing for a dropper post, should you wish to upgrade in the future. And everything is designed to be as light as possible “ because less, after all, is more. Less weight means more speed...The Reaction series represents something rather special “ it's CUBE's Formula One class of mountain bikes. Light, stiff, responsive and built for one purpose only: to get from A to B as quickly as possible. To that end, we've poured all our accumulated carbon frame-building experience into it. Short chain stays, a Boost thru axle at the rear and tapered head tube up front all contribute to impressive steering accuracy and incredibly efficient pedalling, all wrapped up in our Agile Ride Geometry for impeccable control. Fast-rolling 29er wheels make light work of the trail, aided and abetted by slender seat stays for more comfort and a RockShox Judy air fork for superb control in the rough. We even incorporated cable routing for a stealth dropper post upgrade, if that's where your ambitions take you. And, as you'd expect, our design team selected Shimano's superb 1x12 XT and SLX components for their unparalleled gear range and legendarily smooth, reliable performance. It's all set to take on any cross-country challenge, but it's missing one vital component: you.
