The final a number of bikes we’ve coated from Mondraker have been of the electrified model. This 12 months alone, we’ve seen new choices just like the Zendit and Scree, in addition to one other limited-edition Artful – all with huge energy motors.
However whereas this newest providing from Mondraker doesn’t have a battery or motor, it’s almost as area of interest as that – and you’re gonna need an uplift!
Introducing the Anark, a long-travel aluminum gravity bike constructed for freeride and bike-parking anarchy!
The Mondraker Anark: alloy and prepared for any gravity trip
OK, so let’s check out the big-picture particulars on the Anark. Mondraker makes use of its Stealth Alloy for each the entrance and rear triangles on the brand new freeride bike. Whereas Mondraker says the Anark is able to deal with uphill “wherever, anytime,” in addition they repeatedly name it a ‘gravity’ bike, noting that it positively shines when pointed down.
Totally aluminum park/freeride bikes are typically on the heavy…uh, um, I imply, sturdy facet. The Anark is not any exception, with each builds tipping the scales at over 39lbs. However whenever you’re taking a chairlift or a shuttle to handle the large climbs, weight doesn’t matter an excessive amount of.

They proceed to make use of the traditional Mondraker Zero Suspension System, with a little bit of a Summun and Zendit kinematic mashup. Development is at 25%, with anti-squat at 98% and anti-rise just below 100%, each at SAG.
The Anark is designed round a mixed-wheel 27.5/29 mullet platform. Whereas it does have a excessive/low flip chip, that is solely to regulate geometry, and doesn’t accommodate the adjustments of a bigger 29” rear wheel. That mentioned, Mondraker does enable a dual-crown fork, but it surely should stay on the advisable 180mm of journey. Suppose, the killer System Belva Cory likes to trip!
As talked about, Mondraker does embody a flip chip to regulate the Anark’s geometry. Shifting the flip chip from “Normal” to “Low” slackens the pinnacle tube and seatpost angle, in addition to decreasing the underside bracket.
Adjustable Gravity Geometry
In its “Normal” setting, the Anark may have the geo you’d count on for a long-travel park bike. The HTA sits at 63.5°, and the STA is 77.5°. The attain is 480mm (dimension M/L), the chainstays are 445mm, and the stack sits tall at 653mm.
