Bumping this. As am interested given the bike is out a few years if there is any first hand experience with the bike handling, comfort and aerodynamics associated

Which one exactly do you mean? Cube has had a somewhat confusing naming throughout the years, with C:68 name being attributed to several different TT/Tri bikes.

If you're looking at C:68SLT, I can reiterate my opinion of this to be the most underrated rim brake tri-superbike there is.

I wouldn't bother looking at older versions (pre-SLT) of it.

Need more W/CdA.

Hi Polo,

I love this bike; I would NEVER buy one.

The Magura hydraulic brakes have been a sh&t show from the beginning for so many Cervelo P5 riders. My bike was initially fine for about 5 years, but so many people have had issues with the brakes that people would approach me at events with "hey, have your brakes been problematic?" It's definitely a "thing."

Mine started to have issues. I live in Taiwan. Magura factory is in Taiwan. They "fixed" it. 5 times now. And still not fixed. I do not think these rim brakes are even manufactured anymore to the benefit of any would be future customers that will not have to deal with them. That will make fixing them even harder, and depending on where you live, perhaps impossible. My bike shop is super skill and has never had to send anything back to the manufacturer for repair other than these brakes.

Rim brakes are already yesterday's tech, and these one are just a PITA from start to finish...for travel, for reliability, and they do not even work terribly well in when they are functioning correctly.

Don't do it.
