Mondraker PRIME+ Review

The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. Even seemingly hopeless inclines the Bosch motor easily climbs up well. The Bosch Performance Line CX provides a very natural riding experience with a progressive power delivery. The well-tuned driving modes hit the mark. Thanks to the good range, longer tours with the PRIME+ are no problem.

The good Rock Shox fork dampens small and medium bumps confidently when mountain biking. Especially heavy riders should be aware that the SRAM only decelerates poorly. Taking a holistic approach also includes looking at the gearing and components. The components are of good qualtiy and offer no reason for criticism here. If the Meta's chainstay length is less than 445, the short chainstay and, if the Reach's Relative Rating is less than 3, the relatively short reach characterise the Mondraker as a playful, agile bike. This makes it easy to navigate through winding trails. Small wheels are becoming rare, but with the PRIME+ the 27.5 wheels pay off with a playful riding experience. In view of the high reach value, it becomes clear: The main frame is long. However, the generous reach is compensated for by a very short stem. This way, Mondraker creates a good weight distribution between the wheels and a balanced handling. On the scale, the PRIME+ makes a good figure with 22,2 kg. Most Tourenbikes are significantly heavier.
