Technology used on the 2011 Acid:

• Wet Paint Surface: On polished and brushed aluminium and all HPC frames the logos and graphics are applied in multi-layer wet paint. We use this surface treatment technology mainly to save weight.

• Alu Lite: High-density 6061 aluminium alloy requires a heat treatment for the finished product, it is stiff and very corrosion resistant, fatigue resistant, non-shearing material suitable for light tube-sets with highest stiffness.

• RFR geometry: Our bicycles with RFR-geometry stand out by their sports character. The riding characteristics, rider comfort and rider safety in particular are taken in account for each individual bike category.

Yet another excellent hartail from Cube Bikes. This time out of Comp MTB range. The CUBE Acid Mountain Bike with strong 6061 alloy frame, finished with the German perfection. Comes in two stunning colours – Grey/Green and Black/White – both options also come with matching custom forks and finishing kit.

The Spec:
And what exactly do you get for the £729? Firstly is the 30-speed Shimano SLX transmission which is real gem on a bike at this price, accompanied with the RockShox Dart 3 100mm travel forks with remote lock out, Hayes Stroker stoppers and Shimano hubed wheelset dressed in custom colour rubber slippers. All topped upped with Easton/Scape finishing kit. As usual with Cube – pretty impressive!

The bottom line:
So if you looking for do-it-all hartail and 700 bugs is about your budget you would struggle to get anything with as well specced  from the established brands. Ride it to work, your back yard trails or an weekend trail centre blast CUBE Acid will handle it all. More then recommended!

Cube say about the Acid: ‘Strong aluminium frame with comfortable riding position which allows longer rides.’
