Mondraker CHASER R Review

Bosch is the major motor manufacturer in the EMTB world, alongside Shimano - and it's no surprise, as the Performance Line CX Smart System shows. The very natural motor control and the progressive power output characterise the character of the Bosch motor. Achieving such a perfect balance between natural support and power is something few other engines can do. Thanks to the excellent range, you should no longer have any range problems.

Rough descents take away some of the fear thanks to the average chassis. At the brakes, Mondraker middle class four pistons brakes by SRAM are used. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, Mondraker uses average parts. The moderate head tube angle provides a good compromise between stability and agility when going downhill. The reach is also right there in the middle ground. The low bottom bracket height will likely be a sticking point for trail riders, as it negatively affects handling.
