Mondraker Factory Racing XC has returned to Mondraker HQ. Once again, the team gathers to start a new season, aiming to recharge before the competition begins. A visit that serves as the team’s introduction and marks the start of the season.

Heavy rain forced the cancellation of the Hardline Tasmania finals, leaving Mondraker Factory Racing rider Rónán Dunne with a strong 2nd place after qualifying on his Mondraker Summum. Dunne set an impressive 3:17.937 run at nearly 80 km/h. Oli Clark made a solid debut with 8th place. A key event on the road to the 2026 World Cup.

Prototypes can become production models, but only if they prove their worth. Sometimes in their tens of thousands, rolling off the production line like clones; and others as part of a limited run, often created exclusively for competition, handcrafted, numbered, and finished by artisans who merge cutting-edge technology with the refinement of traditional craftsmanship.

Mondraker is back to one of the most exciting cycling events of the year. See you from January 16 to 19 at Hall 5 - stand 509, to talk about gravel and bicycles and to show you an ARID created exclusively for this edition of Velofollies.

Full of happiness, full of excitement, and full of enthusiasm to keep riding together in 2026.

9,281 feet of active volcano. Cape Verde. And a Crafty. Riding volcanoes is pretty unreal. Seeing our man Richard Gasperotti, aka "Gaspi", riding and hike-a-biking all the way up to the crater and then screaming back down to sea level, carving lines no one before had ever imagined, is a whole other level of unreal.

The “Legends of Gugu” camp. A high-alpine, heli-accessed eMTB retreat, hosted by We Ride Romania, coached by MTB legend Richard Gasperotti, and conceived of for riders looking for more than just a ride, because the Legends of Gugu camp isn’t about riding bikes, it’s about living them.

So is your approach to cross country. Whether you ride a full suspension or a hardtail, you'll always be riding one of the F-Podium and Podium ranges. On the most challenging terrain you can imagine or on the fastest tracks. Delivering hundreds of watts that translate into more and more speed

Race seasons are immortalized in Mondraker’s hall of fame as photos, videos, medals, and bikes (many of them prototypes). Living reminders of every time we reached the podium, as well as every time we bit the dirt. That’s what competition is: highs and lows, getting back up again and never giving in. Season after season. The 2025 DH and XC World Cups are now a part of that history.

This is the story of Ino, a rider like you, who at sixteen climbed onto his father’s road bike and ended up racing 800 km gravel events. A story many of us share. A story you share too.

This isn’t a race report. Nor is it an ad singing the praises of Mondraker bikes. We didn’t hand the job over to ChatGPT either. So, what’s it all about? This is something written with pride, and sculpted in bronze. A text that sums up how all 250 of us at Mondraker felt when Mona and Rónán stepped onto the World Championship podium this weekend. We might not be in the photo, but we’re right there next to them, helping them pop the corks on the champagne.

That’s why this year, Mondraker’s XC and DH Factory Teams are heading to the World Championships in Valais, Switzerland, with custom painted F-Podiums and Summums. 100% motivation to help them push their performance to the limit, with colours and designs designed to help them push even harder.

This isn’t just gear. It’s your statement. Your edge. The colours that fire you up and push you harder. You sweat in them, you fight in them, you win in them. And yeah, you’ll want to wear them everywhere, because your pride doesn’t just switch off when the ride’s over.

Crafty Carbon reaches the next level: Bosch CX-R motor with 100Nm, inverted Fox forks and full carbon frame. Power, control and design in a unique eMTB. Discover the RR SL, RR S and XR models from Mondraker.

You’re just a few clicks away from unlocking the most powerful ride you’ve ever experienced on an ebike. The new Crafty Carbon range as well as the newly updated Level, both equipped with Bosch’s new CX Gen 5 motor (BDU 384Y), are now over-the-air upgradable. That means you can update them directly from the Bosch eBike Flow app without leaving your home.

More. We all want more. More travel, more power, more range. We want to push our limits and get better as riders to tackle rowdier trails, climb faster and get more runs in in the time available. To do that, you only need one thing: an enduro bike. The most enduro bike of them all.

There’s going to be some serious shine in Val di Sole this weekend… and not just from the podium. Round five of the XCC & XCO World Cup is landing in Val di Sole, Italy, with a very special F-Podium Unlimited Iridium drop… Mona, Tamara, Nadir, Sebastian, and Álex will be racing on custom painted Unlimited F-Podiums. This weekend only, Mona, Tamara, Nadir, Sebastian y Álex will be competing on custom painted F-Podium Unlimited Iridiums. Available exclusively to the world’s top riders… for now. Later this season this option will be made available to the public as an Unlimited, frame only edition, each one lovingly meticulously hand-painted in our Blue Lab paint studio.

Lukas and Daniel, two Austrians usually found ripping the gnarliest local trails on their enduro bikes, decided to set out on a different type of adventure: A gravel ride from the Basque Country to Barcelona, to find out just what gravel riding is all about. Unsurprisingly they pushed their Arids and Neats to the limit along the way. Gravel and e-bike: a one-of-a-kind combo that brought two friends together for a ride they'll never forget.

Neither the mud, nor the mid-pack grind for most of the race, nor the challenge of clawing back positions one by one could stop her from almost making the podium. Tamara gave it everything, and earned herself a well-deserved 5th place finish in round four of the XXC World Cup in Leogang, Austria.
