Mondraker LEVEL RR 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. Steep ramps are no problem for the Bosch motor. Additionally, the Bosch Performance Line CX Smart System stands out with a very natural riding feeling and a dynamic power delivery. The well-tuned driving modes hit the mark. Whoever likes to go on long rides will be pleased with the very good range.

The good Öhlins chassis confidently dampens small and medium bumps. 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. At the brakes, Mondraker instals upper class brakes with four pistons and large brake rotors from SRAM. The shifting and the rest of the components are always in the shadow of the engine when it comes to electric mountain bikes. Nevertheless, Mondraker doesn't skimp here and instals very good components. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails. 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. For the good geometry, the developer team of Mondraker definitely deserves props. Such a knack for detail in geometry is rarely seen. The view of the weight of 25,9 kg reveals: There are lighter Enduros.
