    Sweet bike mate, I suspect you'll like it even more after you've had a decent ride on it!

    The future's bright, the future's Cube!

    First ride into the office this morning was a dream! Massive grin on my face was noted by all and I have a planned XC bash this afternoon!

    The future is indeed Cube!

    Well I have been out for the first ride today for an hour and a half of mixed terrain, and it has been incredible.

    It has excelled on a variety of terrains (sand, loose gravel and roots) it feels solid enough to tackle drop offs and yet was great on a technical decent.

    It climbs really well and with the Rock Shox recon it has plenty of travel and was not phased by anything that I encountered.

    I can only say that it is a truly great bike! I know that I have made a great choice and can't wait to get out and ride it again!
