Overview
About this bike
The Arden 2 pairs the cutting-edge technology of Diamondback's highest-end bikes with a competitive component mix. The end result? A bike that delivers amazing performance at an equally amazing price. The bike’s frame is made from custom formed and butted aluminum tubes that are not only stylish, but also the perfect balance of strength and lightweight performance. The Enhanced Performance Geometry places you in a riding position that is still fast and “aero,” yet upright enough to be sustained comfortably on longer rides. To take that comfort a step further, the Arden 2 is designed with a female-friendly size range and touchpoints. The finely-tuned parts package includes Tektro disc brakes for an extra measure of safety and control and an 18-speed Shimano drivetrain that provides all the gears you’ll need to meet any challenge.
