But, when the pressure is on, and the best riders in world are testing their mettle in such a short a period of time; when it all comes down to one final race run… you know we’ll pull out all the stops to do anything we can to help them get those extra milliseconds!
From 30th August to 14th September in Valais, Switzerland, the 2025 XC and DH World Championships are on. The event takes in several legendary venues: Champéry will host the downhill, while Zermatt and Crans-Montana will stage the XCC and XCO races respectively (full schedule below).
Unlike their XC teammates, Dakota, Ryan and Rónán will line up on individually customized Summums, beautifully brought to life by our Blue Lab paint department. Each bike carries a strong motorsport influence. Rónán’s design, for instance, takes its inspiration from the iconic 1996 Forti Cosworth FG03 Formula 1 car. A proud design in green, white and orange, perfectly echoing the colours of the Irish flag.

Dakota’s Summum takes its cues from NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt’s iconic No. 3 car, with a playful twist on the sponsor logo, “Goodwrench” becoming “Goodride”, boldly displayed on the top tube.
Rounding out the trio, Ryan Pinkerton’s bike channels the spirit of Rocky Pirrone’s Screamin’ Eagle “funny car” dragster, complete with the eagle on the top tube and a bold red, grey and black paint scheme.

Riders, staff, coaches, mechanics… different roles, nationalities and experiences moving forward together as one team. Unity reflects the diversity of riders who, even as they race for their national colours, share a bond that’s intrinsic in Mondraker Factory Racing XC.
Each rider from Mondraker Factory Racing XC will represent their country aboard a truly special F-Podium. Built around a sleek Superblack frame, the design is accented with strokes of blue, green and red: symbols of unity and a nod to the colours shared by every rider’s national flag.
