MONDRAKER BIKES | BUYERS GUIDE

Founded in Spain in 2001, Mondraker bikes quickly established themselves as a force in mountain bike design. Their dedication to high-performance bikes loaded with innovative technologies is a hallmark of their entire range.

 

We've visited the Mondraker team several times in Alicante, and it's clear that their passion for producing the best possible mountain bikes runs through everyone you meet. As you can see from the photo, whenever we visit, they're always keen to demonstrate the capabilities of their bikes.

Mondraker's rapid growth since its inception has demanded a workspace to match their ambition. Their new headquarters boldly reflects their brand ethos, a minimalist, cutting-edge design that echoes the advanced tech found within their bikes.

 

The building's unmistakable wheel-inspired architecture, built from glass and steel, is an eye-catching testament to Mondraker's non-conformist spirit.  Within this 12,000m2 facility lies the heart of the operation, where 99% of their bikes are brought from concept to fully-assembled reality.

Mondraker Bikes cover every discipline of mountain biking from Downhill to Cross country. However, over the last decade, the mountain bike scene in the UK have become particularly big fans of Mondraker’s bigger suspension platforms.

 

Their pioneering forward geometry developed a strong fan base including ex GMBN presenter Andrew Dodd (aka Doddy), who has since joined Mondraker. This tech advancement has now been widely adopted and has now become the industry standard in frame design. Additionally, their Summum bikes have received plenty of attention in Downhill racing, including the famous 1st, 2nd & 3rd finishing position in the 2016 Val di Sole World Championships.

Running alongside their mechnical bikes, Mondraker were quick to embraced the e-bike revolution early on, and it shows! They've infused their award-winning mountain bike DNA into a wildly popular lineup of Electric Mountain Bikes (EMTBs).

 

Their full-suspension rigs fall into two main categories: lightweight trail-shredders and big-battery adventurers.
