Mondraker Crafty 2026
From £5,799
EMTB Forums verdict

The 2026 Crafty Carbon is Mondraker's full-power enduro eMTB, built around 150mm of Zero Suspension System travel, a 160mm fork (170mm on the XR) and the latest 5th-generation Bosch Performance Line CX motor. A 64.5 degree head angle, long Forward Geometry reach figures and size-specific chainstays (455mm on S to ML, 465mm on L and XL) point it firmly at steep, fast terrain, while a two-position flip chip lets you drop the BB and slacken the angles slightly.

The range spans a wide price spread. The carbon-and-alloy S, R and RR (£5,799 to £7,699) all run the 800Wh PowerTube and a SRAM Transmission drivetrain, stepping up from a RockShox ZEB and SRAM DB8 brakes on the S to a Fox 38 Factory and Maven brakes on the RR. The full-carbon RR S (£9,399) and XR (£11,399) add Fox Factory suspension, Maven Silver stoppers and, on the XR, the more powerful CX R motor with a coil DHX2 shock.

The RR SL sits at the top at £11,799 and takes a different tack: a lighter 600Wh battery, the CX RACE motor, carbon wheels and a SRAM XX build bring the claimed weight down to 20.9kg, well under the 23.9 to 24.5kg of the bigger-battery builds. Every model is Powermore 250Wh range-extender compatible and, from May 2026, eligible for the free Bosch Performance Upgrade 2.0 that lifts the 5th-gen CX and CX-R motors to 120Nm and up to 600 percent assistance.

“I have a 2021 Level R in XL. It's a big heavy bike at 27.5kg with pedals/frame protection. Loves to be thrown down rock gardens and rougher tracks and feels better to ride at speed. Slightly comprimised when you are on tighter/slower…”
