Maxbike ARDEEN 29 2026 (black)

MAXBIKE Ardeen – a powerful XC hardtail emphasising efficiency and reliability that raises your performance bar a notch higher. It is built on a light and sturdy Maxbike M709 frame in the BOOST standard with thru-axles, offering great power transfer, precise tracking and stability in demanding terrain. Thanks to a higher level of equipment and well-thought-out geometry, the Ardeen is an ideal choice for sporty riders looking for a brisk and reliable XC bike for flow trails, marathons and long trips.

Main advantages of the bike:

• Light and stiff Maxbike M709 BOOST frame with thru-axles

The aluminium frame made of the proven AL6061 alloy offers excellent torsional stiffness and durability. The BOOST standard and thru-axles ensure more precise handling, higher stability and better power transfer when pedalling.

• Zoom 868 Air RL air fork

The Zoom 868 Air suspension fork with 100 mm of travel responds smoothly to bumps and provides solid comfort and control off-road. Thanks to the lockout from the handlebar, you can easily adapt it to your riding style. The thru-axle also ensures higher stiffness of the front end of the bike.

• Shimano CUES 2x11 shifting for smooth and durable operation

The wide gear range is provided by the combination of the Shimano CUES FD-U6000 front derailleur, Shimano CUES RD-U6000-2 rear derailleur and CS-LG400 cassette (11–45T). The shifting is designed specifically for higher loads and offers smoother shifting under full load, increased durability and a longer service life compared with standard groupsets.

• Shimano MT200 brakes for reliable stopping

Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes with 160 mm rotors deliver consistent braking performance and safe control of the bike in all conditions.

• Components for confidence and comfort

The wide Zoom MTB-AL handlebar (760 mm) combined with the Zoom C302 stem allows precise steering of the bike. The Zoom SP-215 seatpost and the sporty DDK MTB saddle provide a comfortable riding position even on longer routes.

MAXBIKE Ardeen – the ideal choice for XC riders who want a quality, durable bike with excellent handling. Thanks to the combination of a quality frame, air suspension, a durable drivetrain and hydraulic brakes, the Ardeen is ready for sporty performance as well as demanding all-day trips.
