Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Cube Litening Air C:68X SLT Road Bike 2026 in Gold Dust/Prism

Season:2026Sale

Brand:Cube

Code:128400GLDDUSTPRISM

The Litening AIR C:68X SLT translates the UCI rulebook on weight and frame design into an ultra-light, aero-sleek carbon race machine whose very essence is speed.

From the carbon-spoked, carbon-rimmed Newmen Streem Climbing 35/38 Vonoa wheels – shod with 28mm Conti GP5000 S-TR tyres – to the carefully honed frame tube profiles, every detail is focused on shaving seconds. The new aero carbon cockpit improves your performance even further, by up to 8 watts. Shimano's range-topping Dura-Ace Di2 components – including a crankset with built-in power meter – transfer your power to the road and bring you safely to a stop.

As is often said at CUBE, it's all about the detail. The Litening AIR is already an exceptionally light, exceptionally rapid frame. CUBE worked with the pro riders on Team Intermarché-Wanty to make it so: around 799g for a mid-sized frame, and capable of being built into a 6.6kg race-ready bike that's fully UCI-compliant. For the SLT version, CUBE wanted to go one better, so a new one-piece carbon cockpit was developed that's even more aero than before, saving up to 8 watts. It also provides a convenient mount for your bike computer, so you can keep track of just how much faster you're able to ride.

Manufacturers reserve the right to change specifications without notice based on availability at the point of assembly.

If you are unsure which size Cube bike would be best for you, Cube do provide an online sizing calculator on each bike product page, which requires you to enter your height and inside leg. This can give a recommendation on which size may be best for you, however for the best results, please visit your local Balfe’s store for a personal consultation and test ride.
