Cube Sting WS 140 HPC SL review

Apr 2019 · Aoife Glass

5inch-wheel bike combines 140mm rear travel with 150mm up front, and up-to-date modern trail geometry that puts it on a similar standing to bikes such as the Liv Intrigue, Canyon Spectral and Specialized Stumpjumper.. .

Highs
  • Up to date geometry, 2x groupset gives a huge range of gears for climbing, impressive to see a partial carbon frame at this price point

Lows
  • Awkward reach to dropper remote, 2x system adds complication to shifting and cockpit and adds weight
