Product Overview
Developed in collaboration with world-class triathlon athletes, the CUBE Aerium C:68X Race is designed specifically for riders chasing maximum performance in triathlon and time trial competition. Its C:68X carbon monocoque frame uses CUBE's Advanced Twin Mold construction and combines aerodynamic tube profiles with a distinctive Twin Head Tube, fully internal cable routing and an extensively adjustable Aerium cockpit system.
The Shimano 12-speed electronic drivetrain combines Dura-Ace Di2 controls with Ultegra Di2 derailleurs, while the Ultegra 52/36T crankset incorporates a 4iiii Precision 3+ dual-sided power meter. An 11-34T cassette provides a versatile gearing range for both fast flat courses and more demanding terrain.
Newmen Streem S.60/TT.80 carbon wheels paired with Continental Grand Prix 5000 TT TR 28mm tyres complete the race-focused build. Integrated hydration and storage systems allow riders to carry fluids, nutrition and essential equipment without compromising their aerodynamic riding position.
