Spotted: World Cup Champion Matt Walker's New Saracen Myst

Apr 2021 · James Smurthwaite

We suspect that this new aluminium front triangle is a refinement on the setup Matt was running last year with some extra room up front and geometry that's specifically designed to accommodate a mullet set up.

Saracen Myst AL review

Oct 2019 · Alex Evans

A great-performing, top-value bike with a World Cup-winning heritage that dominates how it rides

Highs
  • Stable and forgiving ride

  • Suspension works well over small, medium and large hits

Lows
  • Coil fork is harder to set up than the air alternative

  • Front end feels a bit low
