Cube Attention Review
Cube has only been around for just over two decades, but in its time, the small German bicycle manufacturer has grown in fame for its mountain bikes and for sponsoring some big time world champion riders. The CUBE Attention seems to have been made for people with tighter budgets and basic trail or XC needs.
We decided to take the Attention bike through some tough off road trails to review it, and we really hadn’t much to complain about. These bikes felt reliable and durable from the get-go. The price and specs were attractive enough, but the performance was also quite pleasing.
Only the RockShox fork left a little to be desired, doing a little poorly on bumps at higher speeds. It started raining halfway through our test ride, which was a perfect opportunity to test the Attention on wet ground, and it handled pretty well without getting to slippery! The big tires had enough traction and shock absorption to ease the issues of the fork.
+Pros:
- Good speeds
- Handles well on slippery roads
- Looks great!
- Solid Shimano specs for this price tag
- Great traction
- Reliable and durable
-Cons:
- Disappointing fork
- Lacks travel
The Verdict
A solid bike for under a thousand dollars, with some good specs considering the entry-level price.
The Cube Attention only needs a small upgrade to the fork, if you ask us, and it will be perfect for XC practices and recreational trail riding. For this price, you’re pretty much getting a steal, so we recommend it highly.
The Cube Attention rolls on 29″ wheels, which excels on cross country trails and this model now features carrier mounting points on the rear. These mounts add versatility and mean it’s also an excellent option for touring, camping adventures and commuting. Shimano Deore 2×10-Speed Drivetrain and Hydraulic Disc Brakes This stylish trail-rider is kitted-out with a Shimano Deore 2×10 drivetrain with a wide gear ratio cassette at the back to ensure you can conquer even the steepest climbs with ease. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes give you the composure to brake hard with confidence in all weathers while its lightweight, durable and agile aluminium frame provides comfort and control anywhere. Thanks to RockShox Judy suspension fork and Shimano/Cube wheels you will be gliding from trail to trail as it smooths everything beneath you. The Cube Attention 29 Hardtail Bike is an ideal option for a wide variation of cycling uses, it’s perfect for bikepacking, for trips to the local trail centre, fitness cycles, riding to work or simply for weekend adventures in the countryside.
