Just doing some interweb window shopping and spotted that Cube are releasing a 505 hydraulic version of the Nuroad for ~£1300.

For anyone interested*, I ended up buying this

Tyres will be changed before racing, but otherwise it’s good to go. Longer TT and shorter stem feels nice (MTBers CX geometry?), everything else just seems to work. Not 100% sold on double-tap yet admittedly

*bored enough to look

That black Cube above looks really nice.

With the Vitus is that a clutch rear mech or not? If it isn't how does the chain stay on - appreciate it's probably a narrow wide chain ring but is that enough?

The Vitus will probably look a lot nicer without tan wall tyres!

It's a clutch mech and narrow-wide ring.

Hated the tan walls... now growing on me to the point I'll miss them when i swap 🙂
