Cube Aim SLX

The Cube Aim SLX is a hardtail mountain bike built for varied off-road riding — forest trails, singletrack or gravel paths. Its double-butted aluminium Lite frame is reinforced at the most stressed points, keeping it stiff where it counts while reducing unnecessary weight. Internal cable routing keeps the cockpit tidy and protects cables from trail debris.

Drivetrain duties are handled by a Shimano XT RD-M8200 ShadowPlus 12-speed rear derailleur paired with an ACID MTB Pro 32T single chainring and a Deore CS-M6100 10-51T cassette. That 10-to-51 range means you have a low enough gear for steep climbs and enough top-end to stay efficient on flat sections. The Shimano Deore Rapidfire Plus shifter lets you change multiple gears in one movement, keeping your focus on the trail ahead.

Shimano BR-MT200/UR300 hydraulic disc brakes with 160 mm rotors front and rear deliver predictable, modulated braking regardless of conditions. The SR Suntour XCT 30 ATB Disc fork (100 mm, remote lockout) soaks up trail chatter and locks out with a handlebar-mounted lever for efficient pedalling on smoother ground. ACID EX25 Tubeless Ready rims make it straightforward to go tubeless if you want to reduce puncture risk.

Available in XS through XL, with 27.5" wheels on XS and S frames and 29" wheels from M upward, the Aim SLX weighs 15.4 kg and takes a maximum rider weight of 100 kg. The slateblack'n'chrome colourway keeps things understated but purposeful.
