How it compares
On travel, the CUBE TWO15 is right where the “downhill bike” category usually is: 200–203 mm up front against a median of 200 mm from 16 bikes. Among CUBE’s mountain bikes, the CUBE TWO15 is the model with the most fork travel. CUBE builds the frame from aluminium.
CUBE gives a weight of 19.1 kg for the SLX build. For suspension, CUBE combines components from FOX and RockShox. In total, 2 different forks are used, from the RockShox BoXXer Select LinearXL Charger 3.2 RC to the FOX 40 Float Factory GRIP X2.
Setup notes for this spec
- Fork (RockShox BoXXer Select LinearXL Charger 3.2 RC): air goes in through the valve on top of the left leg. After every change, compress the fork firmly a few times before measuring SAG.
- Rebound: on FOX and RockShox suspension the rebound adjuster is red. Always count clicks from fully closed (clockwise to the stop) so you can return to any setting.
- Shock (RockShox Vivid Select): get on the bike in your normal riding position, step off carefully and read the O-ring. Always cycle the shock a few times after pumping.
Target SAG for the CUBE TWO15
Instead of percentages, this table gives SAG directly in millimetres, measurable with the O-ring on the stanchion and on the shock shaft. Change the pressure step by step until you reach the value; if CUBE gives its own target SAG, use that.
200 mm fork, 75.0 mm shock stroke (Race)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 34 mm | 24 % = 18.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 40 mm | 28 % = 21.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 44 mm | 30 % = 22.5 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 40 mm | 27 % = 20.2 mm on the shock shaft |
203 mm fork, 75.0 mm shock stroke (SLX)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 35 mm | 24 % = 18.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 41 mm | 28 % = 21.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 45 mm | 30 % = 22.5 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 41 mm | 27 % = 20.2 mm on the shock shaft |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
For 2.50″ wide tyres, tubeless with a trail casing. With an inner tube about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi) more, with an insert about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi) less. Stock tyres: Continental Kryptotal 2.4; Schwalbe Magic Mary / Tacky Chan 2.5.
| Ready-to-ride weight | Front | Rear |
|---|---|---|
| 60 kg | 1.43 bar (21 psi) | 1.63 bar (24 psi) |
| 70 kg | 1.55 bar (22 psi) | 1.75 bar (25 psi) |
| 80 kg | 1.67 bar (24 psi) | 1.87 bar (27 psi) |
| 90 kg | 1.79 bar (26 psi) | 1.99 bar (29 psi) |
| 100 kg | 1.91 bar (28 psi) | 2.11 bar (31 psi) |
| 110 kg | 2.03 bar (29 psi) | 2.23 bar (32 psi) |
| 120 kg | 2.15 bar (31 psi) | 2.35 bar (34 psi) |
Air pressure in the fork and shock
The sticker on the fork (or on the shock) and the manufacturers’ setup charts give you a first pressure. Our calculator is more precise and suggests rebound too – always check the result via SAG.
