A practical urban bike should be elegant, understated and versatile. That’s why, for the Cube Editor Hybrid SLX 400X Electric Bike’s frame, they started with lightweight and durable aluminium and then added Smooth Welding at the main tube joints – so it has a clean, almost organic appearance. Cables are fully integrated for longer service life and to complement the uncluttered aesthetic, and they even integrated the 400Wh battery in the down tube and mini controller in the top tube. And the full carbon fork is light, strong and suits the frame’s pared-back aesthetic. We think they ticked all the boxes.Cube Editor Hybrid SLX 400X Electric Bike HighlightsSmooth 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 durabilityEfficient Comfort Geometry – With our specially designed Efficient Comfort Geometry, cycling is a simple pleasure. Whether you’re popping across town or exploring further afield, taking a ride with the family or with friends, for work or for pleasure, we’ve created a ride experience that will have you coming back for more.Advanced Internal Cable Routing – Gear and brake cables need a way to get from handlebar controls to frame – but what if there was no need for holes near the head tube? We came up with a design that takes cables into the frame via the headset, maintaining full internal cable routing but making it even neater and less obtrusive.Aluminium Superlite – CUBE’s Aluminium Superlite starts with heat-treated 6061 aluminium, which has the qualities – high fatigue resistance, good stiffness, low weight and excellent strength – that are important for a bicycle frame. Then we make it into double butted tubes, to reduce weight without sacrificing any of its strength. The result? Exceptionally light, strong and tough frames.Carbon Fork – How important is material choice? When it comes to the fork that holds your front wheel, more important than you might think. Not only is our Carbon Fork exceptionally light and strong, it’s also surprisingly comfortable to ride. And, when you’re weaving your way through city streets, those are all qualities that you’ll appreciate.
