The LEVEL R is proof that aluminium can be processed aesthetically even in absolute high-end ranges. The striking front section directly behind the head tube is one of Mondraker's trademarks.
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 Bosch motor takes away the fear of even the steepest ramps. The combination of a very natural riding feeling and a progressive power delivery characterises the Bosch Performance Line CX Smart System. The well-tuned driving modes hit the mark. Thanks to the very good range, you should no longer have any range problems even on very long tours.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Mondraker LEVEL R in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (7000) .

The good Fox chassis absorbs even larger roots with the calmness of a Buddhist monk. The thick 38mm stanchions on the fork provide an extra dose of steering precision and performance. At the rear, the steel spring shock absorber provides maximum sensitivity. The mid-range brakes from SRAM do their job but could be a bit firmer. The power of the four pistons setup is only average. The drivetrain and components have a subordinate but not to be neglected importance when it comes to EMTB. Even the bike brand product managers know this and don't aim too high with mostly average components. When it comes to the geometry, Mondraker does not go completely crazy. The head tube angle and reach values were chosen with care. The result: A balanced riding behaviour with a good combination of playfulness and straight-line stability. The bottom bracket is high, which costs handling points. This tends to make the rider stand on the bike. On other EMTBs it feels better integrated. Hell yeah, the geometry is killer! Here the know-how of the Mondraker developers is videly visible. With weight, the LEVEL R is generally one of the heavier e-bikes on the market.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Mondraker LEVEL R

The developers of Mondraker have created a solid all-rounder with the LEVEL R.

Mondraker gives a warranty of 25 years on the bike.
