Apr 2021 · Felix Stix

MONDRAKER are well known for their extreme geometry. How does the Forward Geometry concept of the Spanish manufacturer work with the CRAFTY CARBON XR? Can the sexy carbon Spaniard be tamed or does it just shoot down the hill in a straight line? The answers will surprise you!

Highs
  • Incredibly versatile

  • Top trail performance, both uphill and downhill

  • Look and feel

Lows
  • Permanently integrated battery can't be removed

  • Position of the charging port and Kiox display

Mondraker Crafty Carbon RR SL first ride review

Dec 2019 · Tom Marvin

I took the RR SL out for a ride around Lausa in Portugal (where the first round of the UCI DH World Cup will be raced in 2020), testing it for one and a half days on loose, rocky, rooty and wet enduro trails. Conditions were far from ideal for testing a bike, so these are initial ride impressions only. Mondraker replaced the stock Maxxis Rekon tyres with a pair of Maxxis Minion DHF/DHR2, with an EXO Plus casing, and its MaxxTerra 3C rubber – a welcome swap

Highs
  • Incredibly impressive rear suspension, backed up by great geometry and very light weight

Lows
  • Very expensive, with compromised battery access and tyres

Mondraker Crafty Carbon RR: first ride review - MBR

Nov 2019 · Mick Kirkman

Mondraker Crafty Carbon is a weight-conscious enduro bike 29er with 160/150mm travel. The first Mondraker e-bike with their Stealth Air carbon construction.

Highs
  • Lightweight with dialled rear suspension. Progressive geometry and sizing for an e-bike. Looks the business.

Lows
  • It’s a ton of cash. Can’t remove the battery easily for charging.

Mondraker e-Crafty XR Plus review

Sep 2018

Mondraker's mid travel e-Crafty XR Plus is an absolute monster when it comes to smashing up and down the rough stuff thanks to super long geometry, a grunty Bosch motor and a whole lot of momentum, but the combination of sheer mass, huge chainstays and suspension that sometimes feeds back a little too much to the rider makes it a handful elsewhere.
