Summary

The CUBE Stereo 150 is praised for its agile and responsive ride on technical terrain, with a well-optimized 150mm travel suspension that inspires confidence when the trail gets rough. It offers high-value builds, making it an affordable option for an EWS-ready bike.

[Tested] Cube Stereo 150 C:68 TM 29

Jul 2018 · Andrea Chiesa

With the Stereo 150, Cube enters the long travel Enduro 29 segment. Just a few years back, “racers” were skeptical, thinking that these bikes were way too slow in changing direction and clumsy compared to their 27.5″ wheel shod counterparts. New geometries completely changed the game, reducing the negative effects. Shorter rear triangles with lower bottom brackets and longer reach values, and also more relaxed head tube angles, made the 29ers behave almost like their smaller sisters. In this way, the lower rolling resistance and the ease of overcoming obstacles emerged as clear pluses. Some brands like Transition and Mondraker, went even further with

All-Mountain Bargain: Cube Stereo 140 HPC Race

Jul 2018

The new Cube Stereo 140 is one of the best value mountain bikes we’ve seen this season. For $4K there’s a lot to like about it on paper, and after a few weeks riding we’ve really found it equally as impressive.

Highs
  • Amazing value.

  • Dialled suspension.

  • Robust construction.

  • Lively and fun.

Lows
  • Needs tubeless and a cable trim.

  • Front end wanders on steep climbs.

We detailed Cube's move to 29" wheels on the new Stereo 150 29, built for their Enduro World Series team. Previewing the affordable carbon bike in Finale Ligure, we rode away impressed with the 29er's agile & responsive ride on the technical terrain, chasing downhill after Cube's pro riders.
