Kilmė

Cube was founded in 1993 by Marcus Puerner in Waldershof, Bavaria, starting in a corner of his father's furniture factory and growing into one of Europe's largest bicycle brands. The Nature line is Cube's core trekking/cross family — the everyday 'do-everything' bike that sits between a rigid city bike and a hardtail MTB. Built on Cube's aluminium Superlite frame with a short-travel suspension fork, 29" wheels and wide comfort tyres, the Nature has been in Cube's catalogue for well over a decade and is refreshed yearly. It is deliberately positioned as an accessible, value-driven all-rounder: a bike a commuter, student or weekend tourer can buy once and use for years, with the fully-kitted 'Allroad' versions turning it into a ready-to-ride commuter complete with rack, mudguards, dynamo lighting and kickstand. Across the Baltics and wider Europe it is one of the most common trekking bikes on the road, precisely because Cube distributes widely and prices the Nature sharply against its equipment level.

Verdiktas

+Stiprybės

Excellent value — good hydraulic brakes and a suspension fork at prices where rivals often skimp.
Genuinely versatile: commuting, gravel paths and light touring all handled comfortably; Allroad trims arrive fully equipped.
Wide range of trims, two frame shapes and five sizes make it easy to get the right fit and budget.

−Trūkumai

Heavy for the type (14+ kg on lower trims); the entry Tourney 3x8 drivetrain and coil fork feel basic.
The short-travel SR Suntour fork adds weight and can feel vague/undamped — it is comfort, not performance.
Comfort-oriented geometry and wide tyres make it slow and unexciting on fast tarmac compared to a pure hybrid/gravel bike.
