Turn up on the start line with the Agree C:62 Race Disc and you've run out of excuses - but you've also got a peerless race bike as your secret weapon. Whether it's climbing - where its low weight ensures bike and rider practically fly uphill - or descending - where the superb hydraulic disc brakes ensure late and safe braking on even the most serpentine of descents - you're onto a winner. This cutting edge carbon frame, equipped with Shimano's matchless Ultegra groupset, quite simply sets the pace.

Frame: Our decision to equip this bike with disc brakes meant making some changes to the frame design. With a new fork and X12 quick release axle system front and rear, we've mananged to incorporate enormous stiffness into the chassis. That translates into smooth, stable performance, even at high speed and under hard braking. The PressFit bottom bracket is the kind of state of the art touch you'd expect and, naturally, we routed all the cables internally. It's not just a question of appearance; it also increases cable performance and service life.

Features: The Agree C:62 Race Disc rider is going to expect a lot from their bike, so we equipped this built-for-racing machine with a light CUBE Performance Motion seatpost and carbon contact points. As for the wheels, we opted for a pair of DT-Swiss R32 Spline Discs with 25mm Schwalbe One Kevlar tyres guaranteeing superb grip. A complete Shimano Ultegra groupset - with 50/34 chainset and 11-28 cassette - is no less than you'd expect. And, of course, the Shimano hydraulic disc brake set is another equipment list highlight, set up with compact 140mm RT99 rotors featuring Freezer technology front and rear.
