The 2025 MTB World Cup season kicked off in Brazil, and it’s already been a game-changer for the Mondraker Factory Racing Team. After two intense weeks of racing on the challenging tracks of Araxá, the team celebrated its first-ever elite-level XCO podium — a result that clearly boosts their momentum heading into the upcoming rounds.
We all know they’re fast, so when it came time for MotoGP stars Marc and Alex Márquez to update their rides, we knew that only brand-new, custom F-Podium RR SL bikes would be up to the job.
This year, the World Cup calendar has gone from 8 races to 10, running from April through to October. We’re kicking things off once again at the iconic Araxá circuit in Brazil, from 3rd to 6th April. Then, a week later we’ll be back there again before moving on to Nové Město Na Moravě in May, followed by Leogang, Val di Sole, Pal Arinsal, Les Gets, Lenzerheide, Lake Placid, and last but by no means least Mont-Sainte-Anne.
In fact, the history of motorsport and racing is full of such people. Some were born to be heroes, while others became heroes through their deeds. The Dusty X Unlimited Gulf Edition captures the essence of some of those heroes so that you get to feel like one of them every day you set off on a ride. ATTITUDE: FAST
Double the teams. Double the impact. Here at Mondraker, we know that every second counts. Whatever kind of racing you’re into; what matters is snatching that second from the guy behind you. We’ve decided the time has come to roll out our new Factory squad. The Mondraker Factory Racing XC Team. All the support, all the resources, doubled. Twice the grind, twice the seconds saved, because… EVERY. SINGLE. SECOND. COUNTS.
the world in a couple of days, has already taken the podium at last weekend’s UCI C1 category race in La Nucía, Spain. Austrian powerhouse Tamara Wiedmann took first place, making the track her own and leaving the competition literally in the dust on the faster sections and the descents aboard her F-Podium RR SL.
Christmas is here! It’s a very, very special time of year for everybody, and for everyone here at Mondraker too. A time of year when we all, somehow or another, go back home and ride the trails we rode as kids with the people we love, with family.
Get out of the saddle. Pedal as hard as you can. Don’t look back. This thing is fast, we know. Let your instincts kick in and…. Boom! You’ve unlocked all that potential. As easy as. The new Mondraker Arid is the perfect ride whatever your idea of gravel. We’ve created something that moves, something truly authentic. Our way.
It’s a wrap on the 2024 World Cup season, and on the debut year of the Mondraker Factory Racing DH team which brought triumphs, podiums and the distinct feeling that this was only just the beginning! Our XC team has also had plenty to celebrate with Bec Henderson coming third overall in the XCC, and with both Marta Cano (in her first year in U23) and Ondřej giving it their all race after race. Time now for a break before properly getting into off-season training, because 2025 is already on the horizon. RACING NEVER ENDS.
Penultimate round of the XC World Cup in Lake Placid, USA. Last weekend, Bec Henderson had a big surprise in store for us with her fifth place in the XCO race. The first of the year in this discipline to round off a season that only has the Mont-Saint-Anne race to go.
PRESENTING THE ALL NEW MONDRAKER SLY
LIGHT E-MTB, STEALTH ALLOY AND BOSCH SX MOTOR FOR EVERY TYPE OF RIDER
SLY belongs to each and every one of us. To you too. A new breed of ebike blending Stealth aluminium with a Bosch SX motor and a 400Wh battery. Providing a balanced power delivery to make you the master of your rides. It’s not about who you are when you’re riding an ebike. It’s about who you want to be. Introducing SLY. ONE SLY FITS ALL.
Sometimes you just know that you’re making history. One of those times was the day we released our first FOXY. Launched back in 2004 to meet a growing trend in mountain biking that until then Mondraker hadn’t been a part of: Enduro.
Twenty years on and we’re celebrating that event with the FOXY CARBON UNLIMITED 20TH ANNIVERSARY. Mondraker’s 20-year involvement in Enduro encompassed in a very special build of our most iconic bike.
We’ve hit the update button. The system’s restarting and installing all the updated bikes and fresh kit for the 2025 season. A season with some big changes (as well as minor tweaks) to bring our collections bang up to date. And that’s just a teaser, because there’s a lot more in the pipeline we can’t tell you about just yet. MORE TO COME.
Building the Mondraker community brought Richard Gasperotti to the Romanian resort of Muntele Mic, where he met Romeo and Cristian Dunca, the operators of Romania's unique heli-biking experience. Read about their joint adventure in the wilderness, proving that mountain biking has no boundaries.
What an intense week at the DH and XC World Championships in the resort of Pal Arinsal, Andorra! Our presence as one of the official sponsors floated in the atmosphere by the presence of the Mondraker corporate blue color in the paddock throughout the weekend. Both Mondraker Factory Racing team in downhill and Primaflor Mondraker team riders in cross country representing their countries, fought to the maximum in both disciplines, coming very close to glory in downhill.
No doubt you’ve already got the dates marked on the calendar. Us too! From the 26th August to the 1st September the World Championships will be taking place in Vallnord, Andorra and Mondraker will be doing all they can to make it epic; whether between the tape, down in the pits or behind the scenes as the Official Sponsor. We just want you to live the atmosphere like never before!
It’s time for the Olympics. It’s time for Paris! One event, one year, circled in red on the calendar of every elite rider in the world. The Australian, Bec Henderson, and the Czech, Ondřej Cink, are swapping their Primaflor Mondraker Racing Team colours for those of their countries. At a moment in time when they’re feeling their national identities like never before, fighting for them, digging deeper than ever before for them, how could we not personalize their F-PODIUMS to make them something to be truly proud of? F-PODIUM UNLIMITED EFFORT. NO GUTS, NO GLORY!
