Reliable Shimano gears, trail-taming suspension forks and great handling for adventurous days out – that's our Aim.Details can make all the difference. At CUBE we know that only too well, which is why the new Aim Race features not just 100mm of Suntour suspension fork travel but a lockout too. It's also the reason we selected Shimano's powerful, reliable and easily controllable MT200 hydraulic disc brakes. Combined with the grippy, comfortable 2.25in tyres, they'll ensure you're always in full control. Add the wide range and easy shifting of Shimano's 2x8 gears to the reassurance of knowing that our SizeSplit system means there's a perfectly tailored Aim Race for you, and the only question is where the next weekend will take you?

Shimano Dura-Ace R9270 Di2 12 Speed Disc BrakeThe Dura-Ace R9270 Di2 12 Speed Disc Brake from Shimano features Servo Wave technology and is compatible with Shimano Di2 electronic drivetrain systems. Plus, it guarantees powerful all-weather stopping power and flex-free lightweight braking performance thanks to its carbon fibre brake lever and titanium hardware.All-new lever ergonomics on the Dura-Ace ST-R9270 dual control levers bring new levels of comfort and control to road cycling. With the fastest wireless shifting available and even more precise brake modulation, Dura-Ace redefines performance. Now featuring Servo Wave Action brake technology, the new Dura-Ace ST-R9270 brake lever delivers modulation and control like never before. Wireless shifting keeps your bike looking clean while offering the fastest, most precise gear changes available. All of this resides in a Dual Control Lever to employs the most advanced materials to offer lightweight and refined ergonomics that provide comfort and control for the most demanding conditions. Servo Wave Precise Braking ControlWhen you pull a Servo Wave brake lever, initial pad travel is fast, so little lever movement is needed to bring the pads into contact with the rotor. The power multiplication factor then increases rapidly at the pad-to-rim contact so more of the lever stroke is used to apply greater braking power with improved control. Shimano DCL Dual Control LeverDCL stands for Dual Control Lever. It has brake and shifting functions in the system and enables easy operation. Ergonomic innovation is as critical to higher standard performance as the added gearing. The shift internals borrows the robustness from Shimano's MTB technology and is so smooth and effortless that one finger shifts front and rear are possible. Indeed, shifting is the ultimate act of Shimano Total Integration and simply has to be experienced to be understood. Shimano E-TubeE-Tube is Shimano's “service” that uses websites or apps to maximize the enjoyment of riding a bicycle by connecting the riders, the bicycles and Shimano. Shimano's genuine application E-Tube Project for Mobile allows you to customize your bike, update firmware, and maintain it by connecting it wirelessly to your bike. You can also get more detailed bike maintenance by connecting to your bike by wire with E-Tube Project via the Windows V4 application.

Shimano Dura-Ace R9200 12 Speed ChainsetThe Dura-Ace R9200 12 Speed Chainset from Shimano provides the optimum balance of strength and rigidity at a low weight. Shimano's Hollowtech II and Hollowglide technologies provide outstanding power transfer and smooth gear shifts while it's engineered to excel specifically with the Shimano 12-Speed road groupset systems.The Dura-Ace FC-R9200 chainset is the driving force at the heart of the bicycle. This chainset ensures that no portion of your pedal stroke is wasted. With hollow arms and chainrings, weight is kept to a minimum but stiffness and shifting precision is maximized.Hollowtech II Technology for World-Class Strength at a Low WeightThe Dura-Ace FC-R9200 crank performs two vital functions: transferring your pedalling effort into the drivetrain and ensuring the fastest, most precise front shifting available. With Hollowtech II crank arms to ensure lightweight and Shimano's class-leading chainring designs, the FC-R9200 won't let you down. And the FC-R9200 12 Speed Chainset is offered in even shorter crank arm lengths to ensure there are options to fit any rider.Hollowglide Chainring TechnologyHollow technology on the outer chainring. The Hollowglide construction ensures high rigidity while its hollow structure cuts down on weight yet maintains strength. This provides better power transfer and quicker and more precise front shifting performance.Hollowtech II Forged Crank ArmsA lightweight crankset not only reduces the bike's weight but decreases rotating mass to aid in acceleration. The challenge is to reduce the weight of the crank without reducing its strength and rigidity.Shimano's advanced forging technology has solved the problem through the HOLLOWTECH crank. Just like high-quality frame tubing, a hollow crank arm can provide amazing strength and rigidity at very lightweight.The Best Balance of Stiffness, Strength and WeightThe concept of Hollowtech II technology is focused on producing a superior crankset that will maximize a rider's power transfer. The rigidity of the crankset ensures pedalling efficiency while its low weight, a key element of the crankset, aids in cycling longer distances over which the rider needs to pedal more. Naturally, Shimano strove for the optimum balance between the conflicting needs of stiffness while producing a lightweight crank.The addition of Hollowtech II technology integrates the bottom bracket axle with the right crankarm for more stiffness and weight savings to achieve a high-dimensional balance. Its outboard bottom bracket bearing system provides better weight distribution and more pedalling stability, allowing for more efficient power transfer.The Shimano Dura-Ace R9200 12 Speed Chainset has been developed by pursuing the optimum balance of stiffness and rotating performance in a lightweight and beautiful crankset design.Features: Series: Dura-Ace R9200 Series Optimal balance of stiffness, strength, weight and rotational performance Hollowglide structure cuts weight yet maintains strength for better power transfer and quicker, more precise front shifting New 54-40T option to realize the most efficient drivetrain Hollowtech II crank arms for strength at a low weight Recommended Bottom Bracket: Press-Fit: SM-BB92-41B; Threaded: BB-R9100 Q-Factor: 148mm Drivetrain Rear Speeds: 12-Speed Chainline: 44.5mm Weight: 714g (54-40T); 692g (52-36T); 685g (50-34T)A 2-year warranty is offered with all Shimano products from Chain Reaction Cycles (3 years on Dura-Ace and XTR products).Buy Shimano Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
