Mondraker Dune 2024

From £6,799

The 2024 Mondraker Dune marks the rebirth of a famous enduro name as a lightweight e-MTB. Where the old Dune was a pedal-only enduro bike, this generation is built around Bosch's compact Performance Line SX motor (55Nm, 600W peak) and a 400Wh integrated battery, keeping claimed weight just under 20kg on the entry Dune R. The full-carbon Stealth Air frame uses Mondraker's Zero Suspension System for 165mm of rear travel, paired with a 170mm fork (180mm on the XR), a mullet wheel setup and the brand's long, low Forward Geometry.Three carbon builds share the same frame. The Dune R (6,799 GBP) runs a Fox 38 Performance fork and Float X shock with a SRAM GX Eagle mechanical drivetrain and DB8 brakes. The RR (8,499 GBP) steps up to Ohlins RXF 38 and TTX Air suspension, SRAM GX AXS T-Type wireless shifting and Code Bronze brakes. The flagship XR (11,999 GBP) gets a 180mm Ohlins RXF 38 fork with a coil TTX22 shock, SRAM X0 AXS T-Type, Code Ultimate brakes, e*thirteen carbon wheels and a RockShox Reverb AXS post.Geometry is aggressive for the class, with a 64-degree head angle on the 170mm R and RR builds slackening to 63.5 degrees on the 180mm XR, a steep 77 to 77.5-degree effective seat angle and 445mm chainstays across all four sizes. The 400Wh battery is integrated and non-removable, but the Dune accepts Bosch's 250Wh PowerMore range extender for longer days. It was discontinued and replaced by a later Dune for the following model year.

Geometry read

What the numbers mean on the trail

Computed from this bike's geometry, spec and build kit — reach, wheelbase, chainstay, head and seat angles, travel, motor, weight and the fork/tyre/brake spec — and worked out per size, because a fixed chainstay can make an S and an XL feel very different.

Size

Setting

Descending

Slack 63.5° head angle, 165mm travel and a long 1290mm wheelbase — composed in the chunk, confident when it gets steep, and stable through fast corners.

Playfulness

A fair bit of pop, but happiest on flowing trail rather than trials moves.

Size balance

Front-long in L: 845mm front centre on 445mm stays (FC:RC 1.90). Planted and composed; rewards a forward, attacking stance.

Technical climbing

A workmanlike climber — expect to put in more rider effort on the steep stuff. 600W of peak power and 60Nm of torque.

Best suited toFast, steep, rough tracks — and riders who want maximum composure.

Rewards commitment; it should feel calmer as the speed rises.

Watch out forL runs front-long (FC:RC 1.90).

A 845mm front centre on 445mm stays means taller riders must actively weight the front to keep it gripping. The chainstay stays 445mm on every size, so L feels more front-long than the smaller sizes.
