Samenvatting

The Alchemy Arktos is praised for its efficient pedaling and climbing capabilities, thanks to the Sine suspension system that provides excellent traction and support. It offers a calm and planted ride downhill, with a stiff frame and modern geometry that enhances handling. However, it lacks an internal water bottle mount and can feel overly safe rather than aggressive in some situations.

Pros
  • Sine suspension system provides excellent small-bump sensitivity and traction

  • Highly efficient pedaling and climbing performance

  • Stiff and solid frame with assured handling

  • Top-tier build quality and industrial design

  • Good value with high-end components in some builds

Cons
  • No internal water bottle mount

  • Can feel too planted and safe, lacking shred-factor

  • Low bottom bracket may cause pedal strikes

  • Suspension can be harsh on big hits or when braking

  • Conservative geometry compared to newer trail bikes

Key Quotes
The Arktos 29 is not one of those bikes. But it’s not affected by pedaling, and it’s seemingly not affected by ascending rocky terrain—and somehow, you’re not floating above it all on the sea of a hoverbike.

The Arktos ST is calm, super-smooth and planted, even over really big holes and roots.
BikeRadar logoBikeRadar
Bottom line is the Arktos 29 ST, with its planted suspension and balanced numbers, feels like an intuitive extension of its pilot - a joy to ride anywhere it's fast, technical and twisty.

Alchemy Arktos 29 ST review

dec 2019 · Mick Kirkman

Well-rounded, fast trail ripper with a deeper suspension feel than its 120mm promises

Hoogtepunten
  • Highly efficient, smooth pedaller with great climbing manners

  • Calm and solid feel downhill that defies the short-travel rear end

  • Frame feels stiff and solid

Dieptepunten
  • Feels so planted that the ride leans towards safe and assured, rather than pure shred-factor

  • Suspension jolts a tad on big hits

The Alchemy Arktos 29 isn't just a pretty face—it's got a heart of pure gold, or rather carbon fiber, and moves on the trail to kick it with the best of them.
