Axial WS
Algupära
Axial — inglise keeles 'teljepoolne', vihje sirgele ja tõhusale jõu ülekandmisele jalgratta telje ümber. Cube kasutab oma maanteesarjadele otseseid tehnilisi nimesid (Agree = aero, Attain = endurance unisex, Axial = endurance naiste). WLS = Women's Light Series (~2010-2018), nimetatud ümber WS = Women Series (~2019+). Cube kasutab WS-järelliidet paralleelselt teiste mudelite jaoks (Access WS = MTB, Touring Hybrid WS = e-trekking). Cube ei avalda Axial WLS-i debüüdi täpset kuupäeva. PicClick UK jaemüügiarhiiv näitab 2011. aasta Axial WLS Tiagra 50cm-i juba olemasoleva mudelina — see tähendab, et sari algas hiljemalt 2010-2011. Cube'i naiste vastupidavus/race maanteejalgratas — alumiinium + süsinik kahvel + sub-£1000 sisenemispunkt + Shimano Sora/Tiagra/105 sõltuvalt komplektist
Tehnilised andmed
- Raam
- Aluminium 6061 T6 Superlite hydroformed (HPA) on alloy tier; GTC monocoque carbon (Twin Mold) on mid carbon tier; C:62 high-modulus carbon on top tier — all with Cube CSL Race full-carbon fork and women's-specific Road Comfort geometry
- Kahvel
- CUBE CSL Race Disc full carbon, tapered 1 1/8"-1 1/4", flat-mount, 12x100mm thru-axle (Newmen carbon cockpit on C:62 tier; C:62 carbon fork on top tier)
- Jõuülekanne
- Shimano 2x: Claris 2x8 (base), Sora 2x9 (Pro), 105 R7000 2x11 (Race / GTC Pro), Ultegra R8000 2x11 (C:62 SL). 50/34 compact crank, 11-32/11-34T cassettes
- Pidurid
- Flat-mount disc: Tektro MD-C510 mechanical 160/160mm (base), Shimano 105 BR-R7070 / Ultegra hydraulic 160mm (Race/GTC/C:62). Pre-2019 WLS era used Shimano 105 rim brakes
- Rattad
- CUBE RA 1.9 (Aero) Disc 700c alloy, 19mm internal, 12mm thru-axles (Mavic Cosmic Elite Disc on C:62 SL)
- Rehvid
- Continental 28mm (28-622): Ultra Sport 3 (alloy builds), Grand Sport Race SL (GTC Pro), Grand Prix 4000S II (C:62 SL)
- Vedrustus
- Rigid (road bike). Vertical compliance via slim seatstays, full-carbon fork and 27.2mm seatpost
- Rooliplokk
- CUBE Compact Race alloy bar (narrow women's drop, 31.8mm) + CUBE Performance Stem SLX, ACID Bartape RD (Newmen Advanced SL carbon bar on C:62 SL)
- Sadul
- Cube Natural Fit Venec Lite WS women's-specific saddle (235g) on CUBE Performance Post 27.2mm; Selle Italia SC1 women's on C:62 SL
- Geomeetria
- Women's-specific Road Comfort endurance geometry, 4 sizes 47-56cm (700c), head angle 70.6-72.5°, stack 525-591mm / reach 365-385mm, 415mm chainstays, 74mm BB drop — upright, stable, shorter reach than unisex Axial/Attain
- Kaal
- 8.37 kg (C:62 SL, 53cm) / 9.1 kg (GTC Pro carbon) / 9.59 kg (alloy Race, 50cm) / 10.1 kg (Pro Sora) / 10.6 kg (base Claris)
Verdikt
- Tugev hinna/komplekti suhe — Shimano 105 hydraulic + Mavic + Continental £1 199-£1 349 juures (BikeRadar 2022). 'Quality shifting and braking at great value' Quality shifting and braking at great value (BikeRadar)
- Mugav vastupidavuse geomeetria — peenikesed istetalad + slack head angle + 28mm rehvid = 'rolls incredibly well, without any sense of harshness'
- Mudguard mounts — praktilisus commuting'i ja talve jaoks, haruldus race-jalgratastel selles hinnasegmendis Mudguard mounts often omitted on higher-priced racier bikes (BikeRadar)
- Tunnustus professionaalsetes shortlist'ides — Bike of the Year 2017 (Cycling Weekly), 2019 (BikeRadar C:62), 2022 (BikeRadar Race)
- Kolm raami taset (HPA / GTC / C:62) ühtse geomeetriaga — eelarve järgi valik ilma filosoofiate vahel hüppamata
- Juhtrau ergonoomika — 'awkwardly shaped handlebars... very sharp angle to the bend' Cube Compact Race ribadel The handlebar shape wasn't ideal for me, with a very sharp angle to the bend
- Igav värv — 'dark, matt grey with black detailing... I couldn't hide my disappointment'
- Mitte kõige eredam iseloom ülemises tasemes — C:62 SL Disc 'doesn't have quite the stand-out ride experience' vs Trek Domane / Canyon Endurace
- Tootmine lõpetatud alates 2025 — uus turg ainult jääkide kaudu. WS-spetsiifiliste komponentide (sadul, juhtraud) pikaajaline tugi ebakindel
- Baas Axial WS (Claris) 10.6 kg juures — raskem konkurentidest £649-£800 hinnasegmendis
