Mondraker
Zendit
Race proven geometry, Avinox Power

Redefining What an e-Enduro Bike Can Be
There’s a certain point in mountain biking where “more capable”, stops being about marginal gains and starts becoming something altogether different—a shift in how and where you ride.
With the new Mondraker Zendit, that shift feels very real.
This isn’t just another long-travel e-MTB. It’s Mondraker taking over a decade of electric mountain bike development, blending it with their race-proven suspension philosophy, and pushing it into territory that feels unapologetically aggressive.
The result? A flagship machine that doesn’t just handle extreme terrain—it invites it.

Built From the Ground Up (Not Bolted Together)
What immediately sets the Zendit apart is its clean-sheet design. Rather than adapting an existing platform, Mondraker engineered this bike entirely around a new-generation drive system.
That decision shows up everywhere—from the frame silhouette to how seamlessly everything integrates.
The Stealth Air Carbon frame is a standout. At just 3,000 grams (frame and hardware), it’s remarkably light for something this burly.
But weight isn’t the headline here—precision is.
Mondraker has introduced 6-axis CNC machining for frame finishing, replacing traditional hand processes with something far more exact.
The result is a frame that feels less like a collection of parts and more like a single, unified system.
Suspension That Matches the Power
The Zendit runs 165mm of rear travel paired with a 170mm fork—numbers that already place it firmly in enduro territory. But the real story lies in the evolution of Mondraker’s ZERO suspension platform.
This latest iteration has been completely reworked to handle increased power delivery.
The kinematics strike a careful balance:
• 105% anti-squat at sag for efficient climbing
• 99% anti-rise for braking stability
• 27% progression ideal for modern large volume air shocks
What does that mean on trail? You get a bike that stays composed under power, grips under braking, and still feels lively when things get rough. It’s not just plush—it’s controlled.
ZENDIT leverage ratio shows 27% progression with a 205x65mm rear shock. Ideal for the new generation larger volume air shocks.
ZENDIT anti-squat at sag is approx 105%, ideal for the longer travel application.
ZENDIT anti-rise at sag is approx 99%. This keeps maximum rear wheel traction when braking and the brake force has minimum effect on suspension.
Geometry That Encourages Bad Decisions (In a Good Way)
Mondraker’s signature Forward Geometry is present and evolving here.
The numbers are aggressive:
• 63.5° head angle (adjustable to 63.15°)
• Steep 77° seat angle
• Long reach across all sizes
There’s also thoughtful adjustability built in. A flip-chip lets you fine-tune geometry, while another allows you to switch from the stock mixed-wheel (MX) setup to a full 29er configuration—without compromising suspension performance.
In short, whether you want a playful, descending-focused feel or maximum rollover and climbing efficiency, the Zendit adapts.
This is a bike clearly shaped by race experience.
Small details add up:
• A one-piece carbon rocker for stiffness and durability
• Twin-sealed bearings inspired by downhill platforms
• Fully integrated cable routing with moulded internal channels
• Built-in frame protection and chain stay silencing
• Seamless display integration
These aren’t just nice-to-haves—they’re the kinds of refinements that keep a bike quiet, reliable, and confidence-inspiring when trails get ugly.
More Than Just a Climber
Let’s address the elephant in the room: yes, it’s an e-MTB. Yes, it climbs incredibly well.
But the Zendit isn’t designed just to “winch” you to the top. The philosophy here is different.
Mondraker clearly wants the climb to feel as engaging as the descent. With a highly active suspension platform and refined power delivery, technical ascents become part of the fun—not just the means to it.
And when you point it downhill? That’s where the bike’s DNA really shines.
Stable, planted, and unapologetically aggressive, the Zendit feels like it belongs on terrain that would overwhelm most e-bikes.
Three Builds, One Intent
The Zendit lineup includes three builds—XR, RR S, and RR—each offering different component levels but the same core experience. From top-tier carbon wheels and electronic drivetrains on the XR to more accessible builds on the RR, the philosophy remains consistent: uncompromising performance.

The Big Picture
The Zendit feels like a statement bike. Not just for Mondraker, but for where e-enduro is heading.
It’s not trying to be everything to everyone. It’s built for riders who want:
• Maximum capability
• Aggressive geometry
• A bike that thrives in extreme terrain
And most importantly, it’s built for those who don’t want to separate climbing and descending into “effort” and “reward.”
On the Zendit, both are part of the same experience.
