Apuna Description

Left or right, up or down, fast or slow? So many choices when you are on a bike. But when the paved road ends, with a road bike the choice is clear. Scarab understands the joy of blurring that line, giving you the ability to deviate away to where the pavement becomes brittle. Right there where the road turns into a path is where the Apüna come to life. Based on the design of road bike but with the ability to clear higher volume tires, the Scarab Apüna will take you to places never dreamed of on a road bike.It is fast, agile and aggressive.

Scarab took inspiration from the Colombian ethnic group in La Guajira, the Wayuu, and named its all road model Apüna, meaning trail or path in their language.

The Apüna benefits from the added stiffness of the ovalized Columbus steel tubing selection, creating a solid and responsive platform without sacrificing the comfort provided by steel. Added clearance allows for widths between 700Cx28 to 38 and further options of up to 650Bx35 to 42.

Why Steel

At Scarab love steel. This material has a long history in bike manufacturing and has been able to evolve into Modern Steel. It provides the perfect balance between ride quality, durability, and reasonable weight. Yes! Some of these are not the usual variables you measure the bike industry with… Ride Quality? You heard right!
Steel provides a unique feeling of the road. It smoothens out the harshness of the surface while transferring power in a unique slingshot-like way.


 The material itself sounds humble, but don’t get us wrong: the steels we use are far from basic.

We use the most advanced steels available for bike manufacturing, allowing us to keep the bike package perfectly balanced. you riding more.
