The Fritzz is back! After one year without the classic Cube enduro bike, the german manufacturer just presented an all new Fritzz. There will be two versions of the lightweight aluminium bike: the 160mm version comes with 650B wheels while the 180mm frame is equipped with 26 inch wheels.

After the successful redesign of the Cube Stereo last year, now the new Fritzz will also use the same suspension platform. The 160mm version has a similar geometry like the Stereo too: Both the head angle (66,5°) and the seatangle (74,5°) are the same. The 180mm has a 1° slacker head angle (65,5°) and a seatangle of 74°.

Both frames are equipped with inner cable routings and stealth ready. Tapered steerer, ISCG-mount and X12-axle are completing the package. Frame weight without shock is 2982g (160mm) and 2995g (180mm).

Cube offers three builds with 160mm and two more with 180mm of travel.
