Extra Coil
Laps in the bike park, the Megavalanche, or enduro races, the EXTRA Coil won't let you down. Built to tackle anything what comes your way. Even climbs loose their intimidation.
Extra Air
Your goal: with you best bike-buddy alone at the summit, an endless downhill on alpine trails lies ahead of you. For that, you're willing to tackle some elevation gain - our EXTRA Air is made for precisely these days.
Extra ST
We built the Extra ST inspired by our local trails where it’s right at home.
Essential
The Essential is the bike that started ARC8. A bike designed for best fun out on the trails, but as it turned out also light and efficient enough for success in XC racing. Now in its second generation, it has grown more character, expanding its versatility even further.
Evolve FS
Lightweight, fast uphill, even faster downhill. Our Evolve FS sets a new benchmark in the cross-country category: an XC bike with enduro DNA – there's no faster option.
Evolve HT
The Evolve is built specifically for racing on the technically challenging courses in modern XC racing.
(...) fast schon eine kleine Sensation. Während der Testfahrten auf Schehls Trainingsrunde fuhr sich das ARC8 direkt in die Herzen unserer Tester (...) Noch nie war ein Racefully so leicht, vortriebsstark und gleichzeitig souverän bergab. Kurzum: leichtestes Bike, schnellstes Bike, Testsieg!
No other bike currently available on the market offers such a good compromise between weight and trail performance.
Read full postARC8 (...) used some well-thought-out solutions and engineering to make a unique bike that may be more impressive than a lot of other XC and downcountry bikes on offer at the moment. And perhaps for a while to come.
In Summe ist das ARC8 für ein Trailbike am Berg brutal stark - es zaubert aber auch im Downhill dank hoher Laufruhe ein Lächeln ins Gesicht.
Die Basler bauen mit dem Essential das vermutlich leichteste All Mountain der Welt.
This chassis offers a smart piece of design, which combines road smoothing compliance with rock-solid stiffness when sprinting.
Per questo prezzo difficile trovare qualcosa di simile sul mercato e, per chi volesse prendere una bici completa, vi sono diverse configurazioni da scegliere sul sito ARC8.
A decidedly modern geometry, stiff bottom bracket, smoothening rear triangle and a lot of pleasure when charging through technical terrain
It is something reminiscent of a Pagani Zonda, that kind of hyperbike.
Als studierter Designer muss ich zugeben: Das schicke Carbon-Gewand und die schlichte Lenker-Vorbau-Einheit haben mich total angesprochen.
ARC8's heads are well screwed on and filled with bucket loads of experience, ideas and passion. It's going to be interesting to watch the brand develop and grow.
Laufruhe bringt das EXTRA satt! Das Bike lässt sich dank des geringen Gewichts dennoch spielerisch über den Trail bewegen, bietet so ein super Kompromiss aus Agilität und Spurtreue. (...) Ebenfalls angenehm: Das Extra ist extraleise.
Das Fahrwerk spricht wie versprochen fein an. Auch härtere Schläge steckt das Extra spielend weg. (...) Und lässt man die Bremsen ordentlich offen, vermittelt das Extra auch eine Extraportion Sicherheit, trotz seiner Wendigkeit in engen Kurven.
With its excellent climbing qualities and comfortable riding position, it’s suitable for epic backcountry expeditions with plenty of altitude gain and even technical climbs. (...) In the right hands, it can be a real trail ripper and can even handle the odd bike park session.
The ARC8 Extra ST provides first-class enduro performance and lots of riding fun, in the guise of a trail bike (...) It invites you to play with the trail and puts a silly grin on your face, while the beautiful design and svelte tubing alone are enough to make you smile, immediately catching the eye
Read full postL’Extra réussit à s’enduriser en proposant une plateforme qui encaisse plus, tout en conservant un caractère léger&facile. Il y a fort à parier qu’en fonction du montage du vélo, il pourra présenter différentes facettes pour s’adapter à son pilote et à son terrain, c’est simplement ce qu’on demande.
