Cube REACTION PRO

The Cube Reaction Pro in shiftblush'n'black is a cross-country hardtail with an unusually good hand of cards: at just 13.6 kg, it carries a genuine Shimano XT 12-speed rear derailleur — a top-tier trail component you rarely find at this level.

That XT mech is the real story. It's the culmination of decades of Shimano expertise: robust, precise and remarkably quiet, with ShadowPlus clutch technology that damps chain oscillation on rough ground — less noise, no chain slap, fewer dropped chains, and more of your attention on the trail. Paired with a wide 10-51T cassette, it gives you a gear for everything, from the steepest fire-road climb to a full-speed descent.

Up front, a RockShox Judy Silver TK Air fork with 100 mm of travel absorbs roots and rocks, and its PopLoc remote lets you lock it out from the handlebar the moment the trail turns to tarmac or a smooth climb — no reaching down mid-effort. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes deliver powerful, precise stopping in the wet and the mud, while fast-rolling Schwalbe Racing Ralph tyres (2.25") with Kevlar protection combine traction with low rolling resistance.

Ideal for cross-country riders and trail explorers who want a light, fast hardtail with a serious drivetrain, for forest paths, mountain tours and sporty weekend rides.
