Rear/Front Suspension
Introducing the all-new Cascade Peak
The Cascade Peak is our latest addition to the Ari mountain bike family – an aluminum full suspension mountain bike designed to redefine your trail riding experience. This do-it-all trail bike is engineered to tackle a wide range of riding disciplines and situations, offering a balanced and easy-to-handle ride.
Take Your Riding to the Next Level
65° Headtube
20mm Reach Increase
78° Seat Tube
We've redefined the Cascade Peak's geometry for optimal performance. With a slacker headtube angle at 65 degrees and a steeper seat tube at 78 degrees, descending is more stable and your pedaling becomes more powerful and efficient. The increased reach, averaging 20mm more, ensures enhanced comfort in the cockpit and superior handling on varied terrain.
Better Suspension Kinematics for Stability and Traction
Featuring 135mm rear and 140mm front suspension travel, the Cascade Peak boasts improved suspension kinematics with our Tetra-Link Suspension design. Experience superior stability and traction while climbing and descending thanks to enhanced anti-squat and anti-rise tuning.
Elevate your riding experience
on our newest all-mountain trail bike.
Crafted for Strength and Weight Savings
The Cascade Peak's aluminum airformed and hydroformed custom butted tubes are strategically thickened at weld points for strength and thinned where unnecessary, resulting in a 250-gram weight reduction compared to traditional straight-gauge tubing. The frame is both robust and lightweight.
Upgraded Features for Enhanced Performance
Benefit from a lower standover height, offering more clearance and accommodating longer dropper seatposts. Custom molded rubber protectors minimize chain slap noise, and an epoxy-infused paint adds strength while resisting chips and scratches.
Convenient Maintenance and Lifetime Warranty
The Cascade Peak is UDH compatible for easy maintenance and service. As with all Ari bikes, enjoy the confidence of our Lifetime Warranty on the frame. Choose from a variety of robust 1x drivetrains, powerful hydraulic disc brakes, and best-in-class suspension options for a customized riding experience.
GA-Link for Personalized Adjustments
Experience unparalleled customization with the GA-Link. Now located in the rocker-link for increased rear triangle stiffness. Adjust head tube angle and bottom bracket height effortlessly and adapt to your trails. Optimized for 29er and mullet wheelset compatible, the Cascade Peak is your ticket to fun on the trails.
Go ahead, take it for a spin.
Evolved Geometry
We've transformed the geometry of the Cascade Peak for unparalleled performance.

Common Questions*
Do you offer financing?
Yes, at checkout there are several options available for financing.
Who is this bike for?
This do-it-all trail bike is engineered to tackle a wide range of riding disciplines and situations, offering a balanced and easy-to-handle ride. See the Delano Peak for the most similar full-carbon version of this bike.
How long will it take to arrive?
Estimated lead times are listed under each model's size in the bike builder. Times may vary a little based on current conditions, frame size, color, and availability.
How much suspension does this bike have?
135mm of Tetra-Link rear suspension. 140mm front suspension fork.
What is the bottom bracket frame spec?
73mm BSA English thread. Our philosophy is simple, if the bike is intended to be ridden on dirt, it gets a threaded bottom bracket. Threaded bottom brackets are easier to service.
How are the cables routed?
The cables are routed internally through ports on the side of the headtube and inside the downtube providing clean, simple routing.
What is the frame weight?
3327g (size medium)
What is the biggest tire size it can accommodate?
The frame will clear 29 x 2.6 or 27.5 x 2.8 tires. Tire clearance around the fork is defined by the fork manufacturer, but typically 29 x 2.6 or 27.5 x 2.8 will fit.
What are the headset dimensions?
Upper: ZS44 | Lower: ZS56
What are the dimensions of the rear hub and rear axle?
Rear Hub: Boost 148x12mm | Rear Axle: M12 - 174xL12xP1.0
Can it run an internal dropper post?
Yes! The frame and cable routing are compatible with internally routed dropper posts.
How many water bottles can it hold?
There are two mounts for water bottles inside the front triangle of every size.
What about service?
You can work directly with us, one of our recommended shops, or work through your local shop.
What is the guarantee?
It comes with a 30 Day Love it or Return it Guarantee.
How will it arrive?
All Ari bikes go through our Custom Setup process, making sure the bike is fit and tuned specifically to you. They are test-ridden before delivery. If your bike is shipped to you, it’s still tuned and ready to ride and requires just a few minutes of assembly.
What is the warranty?
Each frame comes with a Lifetime Warranty. Ari branded frames come with a transferable warranty as well.
How does transferable warranty on Ari bikes work?
Ari branded frames come with a transferable frame warranty available to the second owner. The second owner can receive a one-year frame warranty from the date they purchase the bike from the original owner. Warranty only transfers once. All Ari bikes must have the transfer documented from the original owner to the new owner here in order to qualify for a transferable warranty.
What kind of bike is this?
The Cascade Peak is Ari’s aluminum full-suspension trail bike. It is a do-it-all trail chassis with GA-Link geometry adjust and 29er or mullet wheel options, at a lower starting price than Ari’s carbon trail bikes. Complete bikes start at $2,199 for the Cascade Peak Comp build.
How does Cascade Peak compare to other Ari bikes?
Cascade Peak is Ari’s aluminum full-suspension trail bike with GA-Link adjust and a lower starting price. Delano Peak is the carbon all-trail bike with 150/142mm travel. See Delano Peak.
How should I choose a size when buying online?
Use Ari Custom Setup and Ari will fit the bike from your body measurements. There is also a size guide in the bike builder, and the support team can help before you order. Details: Custom Fit.
What does the starting price include?
Complete bikes start at $2,199 for the Cascade Peak Comp build. The listed price is the complete bike at that build level; the bike builder shows the selected options, lead time, and any upgrades before checkout.
What assembly is required when the bike arrives?
Bikes ship pre-tuned, test-ridden, and about 95% assembled. Basic at-home assembly remains, and technicians are available for help. See Support.
What do shipping, warranty, and returns actually involve?
Current terms live on the policy pages, not in this summary. Read Shipping, Warranty, Love it or Return it, and Return Policy before you buy. Outlet bikes follow different return rules.
