You have as much (more?) fun powering uphill as you do ripping down. The alchemists have blended the best of both for your ideal bike: the 2019 Alchemy Arktos 29 ST. Sure, full-on XC race bikes are super fast and nimble, but hit any legit descent and you’re hanging on like an amateur cowboy on an especially angry bull! Alchemy’s modern geometry combined with the signature Sine Suspension virtually eliminates ‘pedal bob’, providing instant, efficient, forward power to attack climbs, rollers and sprints. And when it’s time to head back down, the Fox Factory, Kashima-coated rear suspension punches well above its weight, so you can retake the reins and tame all obstacles. Wherever flat-out speed, confident descending, and all-day comfort are required, the 2019 Alchemy Arktos 29 ST lets you earn your reward ad then shred it!
