You can’t evolve without pushing the limits. No two ways about it. Adrenaline drives you to push your limits and evolution helps you overcome them. That’s why Mondraker designed the new Crafty Carbon. For more control than ever before. The flagship ebike, featuring the new Bosch CX motor and removable 600 and 800Wh batteries.Crafty Carbon R is your ticket to ride Mondraker’s best range of e-Bikes ever. The Bosch CX motor, the heart of the machine, is combinedwith Bosch’s fully removable 800Wh battery (accessible via a cover on the underside of the downtube). This is the only build with a Shimano XT M8100 groupset, including XT four piston brakes, XT 12 speed rear mech and 10-51 cassetteCrafty Carbon counts on an all-new carbon fibre frame manufactured from Stealth Air Carbon. There are 5 builds available in 5 different sizes with two different chainstay lengths depending on size. The R and RR builds are built on a carbon fibre frame with an aluminium rear triangle. The other 3 builds, the RR S, XR and RR SL are carbon fibre throughout.The design lines create an imposing silhouette, thanks in part to the incorporation of Bosch’s new removable batteries. The unmistakable Mondraker aesthetic, with characteristic angular, flat structures expressed through our distinctive design language sets the Crafty Carbon apart as it has done since the day of its inception.The evolution of the kinematics of the Updated Zero Suspension System coupled with the gains made by Bosch’s new CX motor with its natural feel, lack of noise and reduced friction above 25km/h mean that the performance of the new Crafty Carbon has been taken to a whole different level. Crafty Carbon range, designed to evolve, is here in its most advanced level of evolution to date.A significant update to the new Crafty Carbon range, is the addition of the highly anticipated, totally revamped 2025 Bosch Performance CX. The market leader among full power motors, the CX has been an intrinsic part of every Crafty Carbon since its launch in 2020. Bosch’s new motor incorporates an updated design architecture with two mounting points instead of three, a 100g reduction in weight and a reduction in its overall size.This updated Bosch CX has the same 85Nm of torque and 600W peak power as the previous model but offers far better power delivery and control. Motor noise is reduced while pedalling and coasting, and mechanical rattles when riding downhill have been eliminated altogether. The CX’s new software and electronics, together with the improved kinematics of the new Zero Suspension System, mean the Crafty Carbon offers improved performance in all conditions and on all terrain types. The new motor also boasts reduced drag when pedalling above 25km/h.One additional function of the new motor is the ‘Hill Hold’ mode which, when activated by holding the minus button, keeps the bike from rolling backwards on slopes until you start pedalling. The same option also serves to stop the bike from rolling backwards while being pushed uphill.
