UPDATE: 2011 Saracen catalogues now available, just PM me with your name/postal address and I'll send you a copy.
VERY proud to announce that we have got Saracen on board with us now for the 2012 season to compliment the excellent value that is Dartmoor bikes. We now have a some of the best value components and bikes you can get as take on the OS price war.
Who is Saracen?
Saracen is one of Britain's best known bicycle brands. Started in 1987, Saracen was a market leader during the early 90's and in 2009 the brand was acquired by Madison, the UK's number 1 distributor to the independent bike retailer. We're passionate about bikes and we love cycling. We believe in great
design, quality and affordability. Every part of this range has been put together with you in mind; whether you're looking for a bike to rip the local trail centres, a bike to get to work on or a quality bike for your kids, you'll find it here.
The very lovable Rob Warner and Steve peat both rode for Saracen in the early 90's before peaty moved onto the MBUK team.
What kind of a bikes do Saracen do?
Saracen do a wide range of bikes from childrens, bmx, to downhill and beautiful Ti bikes, for now we will be focusing on the higher end performance gear from Dj to the lovely 700cc commuter bikes ( yes,we're opening our market up.)
Do Saracen have any top athletes on their bikes?
They sure do, one of the best junior world teams coming out actually, check them out.
Enough chit chat! show us some bikes and prices!
Myst X and Ariel X frames are sold until Spring, so plenty of time to save. Complete bikes will be available for pre-order. contact us about this.
700cc
First up off the ranks something a little different, introducing urban range with us bringing in 3 models ranging from $849- $1499. ( mike pictured):
"Not the usual run-of-the-mill 700c commuting bikes, but a stylish new range for the image conscious. All feature our lightweight and fast alloy frame that's tough enough to take on potholes or the occasional off-road jaunt. A mixture of mountain bike style with the practicalities of city riding dressed with a hint of fixie style."
Dirt Jumpers
Next up, the Dirt jump range, with Lance Mcderrmot on board, these bikes have had plenty of development at them over the last little while. We are covering the CR2, CR3 and AL 1 + ALX frame which range from: $549 (frame only)-$1599 ( $999 CR 2 pictured)
All mountain Hardtails
"Ready for a new generation of trail hardtail? Looking for a bike that can take whatever you decide to throw at it? A weekend at Glentress? A session at Chicksands? Want just
one bike in your garage? Welcome to the Zen range; Our UK designed aggressive trail screamers. We've developed a long travel capable chassis that's light, long and slack giving you the tool to attack steeper, faster and more hardcore terrain. With a lightweight chassis designed around 130/140mm travel forks, the Zen is a hardcore range of bikes build to ride wherever the trail takes you." Couldn't sum this bike up any better, a bike that has been needed in Australia for a while now! so we are stoked to bring it to the scene! Prices from $1299-$2499 ( $2199 zen 3 pictured)
XC Trail hardtails
"The Kili range of bikes is our homage to the past. Classic lines cut from state-of-the-art Cromo and Titanium tubes, using contemporary XC trail geometry running 120mm travel. Each handcrafted frame has been built to craftsmen from the Kili Cromo 1 to our fillet brazed Reynolds 853 Kili Flyer. Modern day classic XC bikes built for today's riders, 24hr races, weekend warriors and you. The Kili Ti is an epic bike. Beauty and substance in one perfectly formed package. Cold drawn seamless 3AI/2.5V butted Titanium tubeset built with fast trail geometry in a frame that will last a lifetime. Strictly limited numbers available in a full 30 speed Shimano Deore XT DynaSys build, or take a frameset and build your ultimate bike." BANG. I'll let the price and pic tell the rest. Prices from $1299-$4999* from the crmo frames to completes. ( $4999 Ti kili flyer pictured)
All Mountain Dual suspension
The one that started the rebirth, a bike that took to mind that big guys rode AM too, people wanted choice, and that adjustable seat posts are here to stay. Introducing the Ariel, getting some of the best value reviews across the globe. Tapered head tubes, various rear axle choices and butted tubing make this ready for action.
Starting from only $2899-$3999 ( yes Trance/Reign pricing range guys.)
