Cube agree carbon

moonshadow

Just wondering about sizing it seems a bit different with cube , I'm interested in a cube sized 56, im 5-11 with an inside leg of 32/33 and am a bit confused, if I thought it fitted I would commit and drive the 2 hours to check it out.
So is there anyone here with a cube and my dimensions ???
Thx in advance.

Cube sizes are smaller than other manufacturers. I'm not quite sure why this is the case but it seems to be a fact. I got caught out when I bought my cube attempt. I'm 6' 2" and I opted for a 58cm frame online which should have been fine. The frame is small so I need the seat post fully extended. Other than that great bike but lesson learned. Buy a size up when going for a cube.

I'm 6'1'' and 33cm inside leg. I have a 62cm cube peleton race. Fits me great but could possible have got away with a 60cm but personally prefer to err towards the larger. By comparison my other two bike, a Trek and a Genesis are 58cm and both fit great. Definitely go up at least one size from what might fit with other brands. Cube are great bikes.

I'm 5'11" (wear 32" jeans) and ride a 58cm cube and its a good fit. Cubes sizing is different to other manufactures. A 58 cube is similar to 56 trek. It may be a bit on the small side but still rideable with correct seat height and stem.

theres obviously something a little odd with the sizing of cube road bikes but the recommended cube mountain bike size is spot on for me. beast of a machine. delighted with it

This is why a good LBS is still so important...

each manufacturer seem to have their own measurement system, that are not transferable to another make...

some measure top tube, some effective reach, some even measure seat tube...

a good shop should have measuring equipment to take you inside leg, hip height, top of rib cage, height & arm length, which should give a range of bikes that will fit, then you should be getting a proper bike fit, on the bike that you decide to buy

I'm 5ft 9, 31" inseam and have a 53cm Cube and a 54cm Felt. I feel comfy on both, but the seatpost on the Cube is extended a good bit more (probably because the top tube slopes towards the back and the stem is slightly shorter)

Thanks for all the input , went with a Look 556 in the end really happy with it and the fit.
