Bianchi Arcadex AL
Tough Multi-Terrain Explorer
The all-new Bianchi Arcadex AL has been created for riders looking to adventure beyond the beaten path. Built around a premium hydroformed aluminium frame with clearance for 50mm tyres, the Arcadex AL is ready to take on the roughest gravel and off-road terrain, whether loaded with luggage or travelling light.
The ultra-smooth welded aluminium frame delivers a sleek, carbon-like aesthetic while retaining the resilience and engaging ride feel that high-grade alloy construction is renowned for. By using 6069 grade premium aluminium alloy Bianchi have been able to thin the tubes while retaining strength, resulting in lighter weights but, more importantly, also delivering more compliance over rougher surfaces for a high comfort ride.
Packed with modern features, the Arcadex AL includes fully internal cable routing, a dropped chainstay for extra tyre clearance, a T47 bottom bracket, and a UDH mech hanger for maximum drivetrain compatibility and easy maintenance. The Arcadex AL pins its colours firmly to the mast as a bike for rugged terrain with its 1x groupset only design.
Up front, the carbon fork is equipped with triple cargo mounts, perfect for fitting ‘anything cages’ or extra gear. The geometry has been tuned for stability and confident handling, whether you’re riding fully loaded or keeping things light for fast-paced adventures.
With room for 50mm tyres, the Arcadex AL opens up terrain deep into XC territory. Alternatively, fit slightly smaller tyres and take advantage of the rack and mudguard mounts for versatile, all-weather performance, and for taking on commuting duties during the week.
