Summary

The CUBE Litening is a high-performance race bike that excels in aerodynamics, speed, and handling, offering a 30% decrease in drag and significant watt savings compared to its predecessors. It features a lightweight frame, enhanced cockpit integration, and is noted for its fast, assured descending and agile performance. While it delivers a stiff and direct ride, some reviews mention a firm ride quality and the need for tyre upgrades for optimal comfort in certain conditions.

  • Lightweight frame with high stiffness-to-weight ratio

  • Fast, assured descending and agile handling

  • Enhanced cockpit integration and internal cable routing

  • Surprisingly comfortable for a race bike

Cons

  • Limited turning ability and disconcerting bar rotation stop

  • May require tyre upgrades for optimal comfort

Key Quotes

The Litening is nothing short of badass. If it were a person, it would have a mohican and wear leather mitts with spikes on the knuckles.

A superbike this good, priced at £7,499 / €7,499, is actually great value.
