Eurobike: 2010 Mondraker mountain bikes

By Matthew Cole | Saturday, Sep 12, 2009 9.00am

There was a definite buzz around the Mondraker stand at this year’s Eurobike trade show, with some great looking 2010 bikes on show.

Good news for British riders is that distributors Silverfish have recently taken on the entire range, so we expect to see more of them popping up on trails near us soon.

The Summum is Mondraker’s pro team downhill bike, which has been piloted by three-time UCI world champion Fabien Barel throughout the 2009 season.

Using the company’s ‘Stealth’ alloy tubing and Zero suspension system, the frame enables you to adjust the headtube angle (61-65 degrees) and chainstay length (435-450mm in 5mm increments). If you want to own this beauty of a machine it’ll cost you £5,499.95.

Mondraker foxy r:

Less burly but sporting the same Stealth alloy tubing as the Summum, the Foxy R 140mm all-mountain bike looks like it’s going to be a blast.

Equipped with Fox Float RL 140mm forks and RP2 rear shock, a mix of SRAM X9, X7 and Shimano SLX shifting with Formula K18 brakes, this £2,249.95 trail crusher looks an attractive package.

For lighter all-mountain work you might want to consider the 120mm Factor. Available with RockShox Tora coil forks, plus a mix of SRAM X7, X5 and Shimano Deore for shifting, it’ll cost £1,399.95.

There's also an upgraded version of the Factor - the R model (below). This has Fox F120 RL 120mm forks plus a mix of SRAM X9, X7 and Shimano Deore shifting. Formula’s K18 brakes take care of stopping on this £1,799.95 machine.

  • What happened to their Dune range of bikes? I thought they looked ok

  • looks like they stole theie whole range from Giant Bicycles!!

  • the factor looks like a 120mm travel Giant NRS. will give Props to the DH bike though looks Sic

  • "looks like they stole theie whole range from Giant Bicycles!!"

    Considering the fact that Giant pretty much handles the manufacturing of many of the top brand names out there these days, it's no surprise.

  • Manufacturng and design are totally different dogmatix, you bell-end.

  • dangerjonny : "looks like they stole theie whole range from Giant Bicycles!!"

    While you are at it you might as well say it looks like they stole the whole range from rocky or most other manufacturers.

    Its pretty difficult to make any bike without it looking some way or another like something else on the market. Toptube sloping is in fashion, riding positions are fairly similar, travel sizes are identical. Therefore your comment is totally invalid. Of course they look alike.

    Plus the suspension design is completely different from Giant's maestro system.

    Think more before you flap your gums next time.

  • Would love to get some of the Dune range out here in Australia. Beautiful looking bike, especially the '09 model. Would have one of those over a Reign X any day.

    Nothing like the Maestro design, maybe more like the Pivot Firebird.
