  • ZERO is Mondraker’s proprietary most efficient, best performing and super capable suspension system. ZERO is individually designed, set up and optimised for the best pedalling efficiency and biggest hit capability on each Mondraker full suspension model across the range, from little F-Trick to Summum Carbon World Cup & World Championship winning downhill bikes.
    ZERO is a virtual pivot suspension system with an exclusive dual link design. The most unique and exclusive feature of ZERO is that the shock floats between the two suspension links and is compressed from both ends. This makes the rear suspension extremely supple on small bumps and big hit capable, really the most acknowledgeable and astounding feature of every Mondraker full suspension bike.

    love this talk, i have a Mondraker Dune R myself, but pedal kickback is absolutely there, quite high too. Nonetheless pedals amazing, its supple and sensitive.
    I really dont get this habit of all brands in this industry to try and upsell their stuff, both hiding their excellence and weak points, in favor of a "Do all" bike, while people are not as stupid as you might think they are, and everyone kinda knows how such "do all bikes" dont exist.

  • @RicardoPetrazzi

    Got myself a Crafty R in December, absolutely loving it. The only pain points are the charge port cover is rubbish and the lower linkage is a wonderful trap for all the crud on wet scottish trails....apart from that, it's fantastic bike. 👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐ (yes 4 out 5 stars)

  • @FINNdeischgut
    @FINNdeischgut Před 3 měsíci +6

    I love Mondraker bikes, but if it was so easy to combine zero pedal kickback with zero power loss (anti squat) and zero break jack, everyone would do it. According to the current state of science, it is not possible to combine everything. It's always a trade-off. Mondraker bikes are very pedal efficient and also have very little break jack. But the pedal kickback is relatively high. I also don't understand why a downhill bike needs so much anti squat. You can easily fix the pedal kickback with an O-Chain (which many people use with the Summum) and the Summum is a very cool downhill bike. But less anti squat and less pedal kickback and a slightly more sensitive suspension would be a sensible trade for a downhill bike, in my opinion. On my Mondraker Level RR 2023 I actually don't feel any pedal kickback at all, but that's probably due to the Bosch motor, which acts like a small O-chain due to the freewheel. So what I actually wanted to say: Mondraker bikes are very cool, but you shouldn't overdo the marketing because no product is perfect and people know that now and tend to react negatively to something like that.

I really want to know what "Zero" means in this case. We all know that there is no such thing as the perfect suspension system and i hoped to get some well-founded informations from Doddy here, but now i'm a little bit disappointed

    It’s amazing how effective these bikes are. I have 2021 Superfoxy Carbon R that I custom built to 27.5lbs. It handles and climbs like a proper XC bike w/o being sluggish at all while being able to conquer almost anything I throw at it. BTW are they re-designing Foxy & Superfoxy frames anytime soon? I see the seatstay dropping on F-Podium, Summon and the new model Neat. I kinda like the visual aspect of the top tube perfectly in line with the seatstay forming a straight line.

    It's cool and all that Mondraker signed Doddy and they're doing all this marketing. Bikes look sick, and they've got successful racing teams. There are still very few reviews of these bikes out there and fewer dealers in the US. They can claim all they want about their suspension performance but until I ride one or one of the reviewers I trust rides one, I'm not sold. Bikes look sick, and they've got successful racing teams.

    Love the presenting of Doddy as always, but I will admit that the absolute sales statements from him are slightly jarring. I would prefer more talk of optimised setups as opposed to the Zero line. Nice marketing phrases, but potentially a bit technically questionable.

  • @Tony_P
    @Tony_P Před 3 měsíci +1

    Zero pedal kickback is a false statement. I broke a 200km old chain doing a low speed drop on my 22 Crafty. This was followed shortly after with me slamming the ground as I put down a pedal stroke which completed the chain break and sent me over the bars.
    I love the bike , but hearing false statements from the manufacturer doesn't sit well and I'm glad to see I'm not the only one.

  • @dit4963
    @dit4963 Před měsícem

    3:37 That is an absolute lie. You can't have high anti-squat (for pedal efficiency) and zero/low pedal kickback. It's always a compromise. And the bike he shows has 24° pedal kickback 😆But now Doddy is a marketer, not that at GMBN he was completely unbiased and reliable.
    And he completely misunderstands anti-rise, brake squat and brake jack. Anti-rise and brake squat are exactly the same thing and are dictated by the instant center. Brake jack is something else and is dictated by the position of the brake caliper and it's movement relative to the brake rotor while the suspension moves (which sometimes is addressed with a floating caliper). Hey, but sometimes even bike companies don't know this. Google "AASQ #148: What is Brake Jack, and how does it differ from Anti-Rise?" and see completely different answers (btw, Devinci is the most correct).
    4:15 That's a contradiction. When the rear suspension extends it feels softer not firmer.
