NEW FEATURES 2024
CUSTOM PAINTINGS IS NOW FREE!
Madnes remains faithful to epoxy powder coating, a varnish that is completely resistant, offering an unlimited choice of colors and textures
If you would like to personalize the frame, this option is now included in the sale price.
ONE-PIECE ALUMINUM JOINTS
Previously made of steel and in 4 parts for cost reasons, the links are now assembled from 2 parts of aluminum, providing a 15% profit
in the lateral rear rigidity of the bike and a weight saving of 100 g.
UDH AND T TYPE
Madnes frames show high responsiveness in adapting to the market and have been mounted on UDH derailleur hangers for several months and are T-Type compatible.
INTERNAL ROUTING
Previously internal but not guided, the front derailleur and telescopic seat post housings have been completely guided in the frame since 2023, which makes this possible
easy installation.

MADE IN FRANCE
Madnes Bicycles is always made in France as much as possible and strives to bring most suppliers as close to the workshop as possible. Although some of the tubing comes from Reynolds in England, the parts that make up the frames are machined, cut and welded locally.
WHY STEEL?
Firstly, its fatigue resistance makes it the material of choice to ensure frame longevity. In addition to the joy of enjoying your bike for a long time, this longevity also enables an economic and ecological reduction in consumption. Because the carbon footprint of steelmaking is much lower than that of carbon or aluminum, it is also recyclable. Steel also has unrivaled dynamism as it recovers its shape more quickly than other materials when bent, giving the bike high dynamism when pedaling and turning. Weight is maintained thanks to double-butted Reynolds tubing, making Madnes frames lighter than most aluminum frames in this segment.
VIRTUAL POINT PIVOT & CONCENTRIC SHOCK AXLE
Madnes Bicycles maintains virtual pivot point technology to maximize all suspension parameters for optimal pedaling and cushioning. With complete transparency about the quality of the suspension system, all curves are visible on the website. The concentric axis between the higher linkage, rear triangle and shock absorber gives the frame a clean look and simplicity.
IGUS BUSHINGS
Thanks to this storage, the Madnes frames are able to achieve these clean lines without interruptions between the different elements. They are also very easy to maintain and inexpensive, with a lifespan of 2 years and a complete bushing kit for the frame for €20.
A STIFF FRAME
The rigidity is optimized as much as possible by the triangulation of straight tubes without bends, the tapered head tube with integrated headset, the hollow folded sheet metal reinforcements and the connection between the front triangle and the rear triangle by double links.
