Its Trapeze frame offers increased standover clearance compared with a traditional diamond frame, while Cube's Trekking Comfort geometry creates a riding position suited to spending longer in the saddle.Cube uses Aluminium Superlite construction with double-butted tubing for the frame. Double butting varies the wall thickness of the tubes, keeping additional material where it's useful for strength while reducing it in areas where less is needed.A key part of the Kathmandu design is Cube's Integrated Carrier 3.0. Rather than adding a conventional rack to the finished bike, the carrier is incorporated into the frame design to create a sturdy and tidy platform for carrying compatible panniers and luggage.The SR Suntour NCX32 E LO Air fork provides 63mm of suspension travel to help smooth out broken tarmac, rough cycle paths and unsurfaced tracks. Its air spring can be adjusted to suit rider weight, while the lockout provides the option to firm up the fork on smoother surfaces.Shimano CUES provides a 2x11-speed drivetrain with a 46/32t chainset and wide-ranging 11-45t cassette. The two-chainring setup gives plenty of gearing options, with higher ratios for making progress on the road and easier gears for climbing, particularly useful when carrying luggage.CUES is designed around Shimano's LINKGLIDE technology, with an emphasis on smooth shifting and drivetrain durability. The Rapidfire Plus shifters provide familiar trigger-operated gear changes, while the 11-speed rear derailleur manages the broad cassette range.Shimano MT200/UR300 hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent braking with relatively light lever effort. A larger 180mm front rotor is paired with a 160mm rear, providing additional braking capacity at the front while retaining progressive control for everyday riding and touring.The ACID EX25 rims are tubeless ready and paired with 47mm Schwalbe Marathon Mondial Pro tyres. Their generous width provides useful cushioning and grip on rougher surfaces, while the Marathon Mondial is designed with mixed-surface touring in mind, making it suitable for roads, cycle paths and unsurfaced routes.The tyres are also tubeless ready, so the wheels and tyres can be converted to a compatible tubeless setup. This can allow lower pressures for additional comfort and reduces the risk of traditional pinch punctures.Practical equipment is a major part of the Kathmandu EXC's appeal. Alongside the Integrated Carrier 3.0, it comes equipped with mudguards, lights and a kickstand, reducing the number of accessories you'll need to add before using it for commuting or touring.A chainguard on the Shimano CUES chainset provides some additional protection around the drivetrain, while ACID trekking pedals are included as standard. The ACID Sequence Pro saddle uses Bubble Foam padding to support comfort on longer rides.At a stated 16.3kg, the Kathmandu EXC Trapeze combines a broad Shimano drivetrain, adjustable air suspension and wide touring tyres with the carrying capacity and accessories needed for practical riding. It's a versatile option for commuting during the week, leisure riding at the weekend or heading further afield with luggage.
