Cruising down a country road or barreling up a bike lane, the road passing smoothly beneath those skinny tires—it's an amazing feeling. It's a sensation we wish everyone could experience, which is why we created the Arden 1—a bike designed to make road biking more accessible (and fun) than ever.
The Arden shares many of the materials, geometry, and technology you'll find in our high-end bikes. The frame is made from light and responsive aluminum. The Arden 1 also features our Enhanced Performance Geometry, which puts you in an upright, relaxed position. Bottom line? You'll finish rides (even the day-long ones) without the kind of fatigue that sets in on other road bikes. Known for their superior fit, our Arden line of women's bikes take EPG a step further with women's-specific size range and touch points. Equipped with a mix of quality FSA and Shimano components, the Arden 1 is your ticket to ride.
- Women's-specific 7005 aluminum frame with butted and formed tubing is light and highly durable
- Aluminum alloy fork with alloy steerer is light and strong
- Enhanced Performance Geometry fights fatigue
- Wide-range Shimano Claris/FSA 2x8-speed drivetrain offers great performance and value
