Mondraker Raze mountain bike

Designed to offer exceptional agility, subtle terrain absorption, and immediate acceleration, the Mondraker Raze embodies the perfect balance between dynamism , control , and trail versatility . With its Zero Suspension , Forward Geometry , and design focused on demanding riding, it sets a new standard for trail MTB bikers seeking a playful ride.

Mondraker Raze: Trail bike with a strong character

The Mondraker Raze MTB is designed for riders looking to push the boundaries between trail and downcountry. Its Stealth Evo aluminum frame features hydroformed tubing, a Zero Suspension system with 130mm of rear travel , and components optimized for smooth and aggressive handling. The Monoblock linkage and internal cable routing enhance reliability without adding weight.

Up front, the RockShox 35 Gold RL fork (150 mm) provides responsive and reliable damping. The Boost 15x110 mm assembly and 35 mm stanchions ensure solid stability, while compression and rebound adjustments allow you to customize the sensitivity to suit the terrain.

The riding position is designed for performance thanks to Forward Geometry : a long reach combined with a short stem provides a straight front end and engaged rear end. This geometry choice enhances the bike's playful character, even as the pace increases.
