Last year Cube introduced their aluminum framed Nuroad as an affordable gravel bike, bridging the gap between their road & cross line-ups. For 2019 the bike gets another option with a WS women’s series update. Cube also adds a couple of new FE models ready to tour, plus small updates to the standard Nuroads.

The Nuroad WS is a pretty no-nonsense aluminum gravel bike. It gets a shaped & butted 6061 alloy frame with geometry adapted from Cube’s proven endurance road bike range and a tapered fork that uses a forged alloy crown & steerer joined to carbon legs. That’s not going to get you a super light gravel bike (it claims a 10.5kg complete weight), but it does help Cube push the price on this one down to just 999€.
What you get with that is a complete bike built up with a Shimano Tiagra 2×10 groupset and a set of TRP Spyre mechanical disc brakes. The bike surely makes sacrifices to keep the price down, but it does get modern tech features, including the 1.5″ tapered steerer, 12mm thru-axles, flat mount disc brakes, and room for up to 40mm wide gravel tires.
Available in four frame sizes for the women’s WS model (50-58cm), it shares the same geometry as the standard Nuroad but finished with a one-size narrower version of Cube’s flared alloy Gravel Race bar and a women-specific saddle. All of the Nuroads gets internal routing in the downtube and include braze-ons to mount a set of full-coverage fenders and a rear rack.
