2017 CUBE TWO15 HPA Race 27.5.

Our Two15 downhiller continues to evolve. Light, dynamic and a potent force in downhill, our gravity bike's design continues the success of its predecessors. With a frame designed around a 27.5 inch wheel but still delivering 215mm of travel at the rear, the Two15 HPA Race has plenty in reserve. And you're going to need those reserves, if you're going to ride the terrain and at the speed for which the Two15 is designed.

The Two15 remains true to its roots but opens up new possibilities, thanks to the smooth rolling of 27.5 inch wheels. As the bigger brother of the Fritz and Stereo series, it's got big boots to fill: nearly bottomless travel, but with the sharp handling and superb responsiveness you'd expect from a CUBE full suspension bike. We've even cleaned up the looks with internal cable routing. 27.5 inch wheels and optimised chainstay lengths deliver almost limitless traction and unbeatable suspension performance. In order to improve stiffness even further, we equipped the chainstays with a 157mm X12 axle.

This gravity frame is all about unbeatable downhill performance without unneccesary extra weight. Up front there's a Fox 40 Performance Elite RC with adjustable low speed compression and 200mm travel and, at the rear, we've gone for the beautifully compliant Van shock with a generous 215mm travel. Hauling it all to a halt reliably and in any conditions is Sram's Guide R brake system, complete with extra large 200mm rotor up front. A Sram XO 1x10 transmission with downhill-specific 11-28 cassette and chain guide delivers power to the trail. In order to deliver maximum traction in spite of the freqent air-time that's part and parcel of downhilling, the Two15 runs on light and robust DT Swiss wheels shod with Schwalbe's Magic Mary grip monsters in the lightweight Super Gravity variant. A Race Face Chester Direct Mount cockpit with 780mm width and 35mm bar clamp provides extra steering precision.
