Mondraker Crafty R 29 review

Jan 2021 · Seb Stott

Easy to ride fast over technical terrain, but hard to handle on tamer trails and brakes let it down

Highs
  • Super-stable when riding fast, with excellent cornering grip

  • Highly capable uphill thanks to powerful motor and good weight distribution

Lows
  • High weight and long wheelbase make it hard to move around

  • I’d upgrade the brakes ASAP

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.
