Saracen has overhauled its mountain bike line-up, with the Ariel name being given to a broad range of aluminium mountain bikes, from 130mm trail bikes up to park-ready 180mm rigs. There’s a new e-MTB Ariel too, which uses Shimano’s EP8 motor, and a mini Ariel for kids who rip.

Saracen has also shifted its sales model to a direct-sale model via its website, and, as we’d expect from a shortened supply chain, pricing for 2021 looks incredibly strong: the adult Ariel range starts with the Ariel 30 at £2,200 and tops out at £4,200 for the Ariel 60 Elite, and £6,500 for the Ariel E-50 Elite e-MTB.
