Mondraker Podium RR SL

Mondraker lists a 775g frame weight for the Podium platform in size medium, a figure that refers to the frame rather than the complete bike. Its Stealth Air Carbon construction is designed to preserve stiffness while keeping weight low. The 29-inch format supports momentum across XC terrain, and the hardtail layout provides the direct pedaling feel that defines the bike's purpose.

XC Forward Geometry pairs a longer reach with a 68.5-degree head angle, 74.5-degree effective seat tube angle and 430mm chainstays. Those dimensions balance room to move with a purposeful climbing position and responsive changes of direction. HHG internal routing keeps the cable layout tidy, while a threaded BSA bottom bracket, tapered head tube, Boost 12x148mm rear axle and UDH interface define the chassis. The frame is designed for a 1x drivetrain and flat-mount brakes.

The RockShox SID SL Ultimate Flight Attendant fork delivers 100mm of travel through a DebonAir+ spring and Charger Race Day 2 damper. It uses 32mm aluminum stanchions, a 44mm offset and Boost 15x110mm axle. External rebound adjustment and electronically controlled open, pedal and lock compression settings let the suspension response suit different sections of the ride, from sustained climbs to rougher stretches of trail.

SRAM XX SL Eagle AXS T-Type provides 12-speed shifting. Mavic Crossmax Ultimate Carbon 29 wheels feature hookless, tubeless-ready rims with a 30mm internal width and 24 spokes. The MX1001 Ultralight rear hub adds ceramic bearings and ID360 freewheel technology, along with six-bolt rotor mounting and an XD freehub. This wheel specification reinforces the build's race-focused approach.
