Thinking of upgrading my Cube ltd, and getting a 2nd hand flash 4.
Has any one got one and what do you think of it. Do you know if the wheels (DT Swiss XCR 1.7 with Schwalbe Racing Ralph 2.1" EVO Triple Nano) are tubeless. Any advise would be appreciated
Thanks

You don't get the Hi-Mod frame on the 4, whilst it's a nice bike, don't think it's the crazy light frame on the more expensive models.
The wheels aren't specifically tubeless, but can be converted right enough, the Ralphs will work well, if they're Triple Nano it's presumably a 2010 model, not a 2011 (the 2011 tyres specifically being Tubeless Ready), but they'll still go on alright with a bit of Stan's tape.0 -
Hi
I bought a flash 4 2010 New two weeks ago ( reduced price as old model, can be found for around £1500 on net ) instead of original £2000 price .
Well happy with it so far handles great with its Sid fork and the frame feels good comfortable but feels pretty sfiff when putting the power on. The wheels aren't tubeless so would need converting if you wanted to go that route. They seem ok though not overly heavy for oe .lovely finish on bike too .
Can't wait to get out on it at the weekend again0 -
Cheers lads going to have a look at the bike 2 moro. Yes it is the 2010 model, looks like new by the photos.
Vtech1.5 have you any idea how much yours weighs. Its got to be a lot lighter than my cubehttp://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad197/pete469920/CIMG0147.jpg

Feels pretty light to me I did see a weight of 22. Something lbs in a spec for a medium
Frame not sure how accurate that was. Definatly feels lighter than the whyte c19 ( nice bike though apart from oversize seat/chainstays ) wasn't that bothered about being superlight as I'm not plus I used to have a taurine which I loved go try one0 -
Well wen't had a look at it, mint condition looks like it had just came out of the box. Done the deal £1400 through in New giro helmet, gloves wireless computer, set v8s new set of egg beaters, Camel bak classic
Had my first ride out wow thought my cube was good this is a different class. Super smooth shifting the sram is going to take a bit use to. The V8s will becoming straight off cant get use to the flats. The egg beaters will be going on for the next ride
