The Ariel 30 is the epitome of versatility, designed to excel on a wide range of terrains, from smooth local trails to rugged backcountry routes. Its all-new, custom-butted and hydroformed 6013 aluminium frame is the foundation of its capability, providing a perfect balance of strength, agility, and responsiveness. Crafted with input from Matt Walker of the Madison Saracen Factory Racing Team, this bike has been meticulously engineered to endure the rigors of aggressive riding while maintaining a nimble and agile feel. With its ability to rally up, down, and everywhere in between, the Ariel 30 is the ultimate companion for riders who demand performance without compromise.
One of the standout features of the Ariel 30 is its adaptability, thanks to its size-specific wheels and included push links. Whether you prefer the agility of a 27.5-inch rear wheel paired with the rollover capabilities of a 29-inch front wheel or the uniformity of a 29er setup, this bike offers the flexibility to tailor your ride to your exact preferences. Saracen's thoughtful inclusion of additional push links means you can experiment with different configurations, effortlessly transitioning from one setup to another to explore which feels best for your riding style and terrain. Embrace this versatility and embark on a journey of discovery with the Ariel 30, confident that you'll always have the perfect setup for every adventure.
The Ariel 30 Elite sets the standard for performance and durability, boasting a lineup of top-of-the-line components meticulously chosen to deliver an unparalleled riding experience. With an uprated 140mm Fox 36 fork providing extra travel and stiffness up front, and a Fox Float DPS Performance Elite air shock offering 130mm of rear travel with two position settings, this bike is built to handle whatever the trail throws your way. Shimano's benchmark XT groupset ensures peerless shifting across a wide 10-51 range, while the matching four-piston brakes deliver unmatched power and control, with extra adjustability to fine-tune your riding experience. DT Swiss XM421 rims, Maxxis Minion DHRII tires, and a RaceFace carbon bar complete the package, ensuring every component is optimized for performance and durability.
