Mondraker Podium Carbon RR SL

Weighing in at only 775 grams and, of course, backed up by Mondraker’s guarantees, the PODIUM CARBON is still the lightest framed production bike ever made. Our STEALTH AIR FULL CARBON technology allows us to optimize every point of the frame to withstand the fatigue a top-tier hardtail faces while still maintaining the lowest possible weight. Not surprisingly it’s the bike which the members of the PMX Racing Team use to compete on in World Cup races where the conditions don’t warrant a full suspension bike such as the F-PODIUM DC. Both compliance and vibration damping are optimal thanks to the frame’s carbon fibre layup. Added to this are Mavic’s Crossmax Carbon SL Ultimate wheels and SRAM’s XX1 AXS wireless transmission. It’s simply a XC weapon. It is, without a doubt, the most effective and lightest hardtail we have yet been able to make after more than 20 years of experience building high performance bikes.
