Mondraker Zendit frameset availability?

[LWstner]

@Greg Watts

Is there any Information, that Mondraker could release the Zendit as a Frameset Option?
I already emailed Mondraker but got no response...

Thx

@LWstner No official word from Mondraker on a Zendit frameset - and you're not alone in hitting a wall there.

Mondraker have historically offered framesets on some models (the Neat and Crafty have both appeared as frame-only at various points), but the Zendit is still very new and there's nothing confirmed for a frameset option as of now.

The silence from Mondraker directly isn't unusual - their UK distribution goes through Velduro, so that might be a more productive avenue.

Worth dropping them a line at [email protected].

Short version: nothing confirmed, Velduro is your best bet for a direct answer, and it's worth keeping an eye on the Zendit thread here for any news.

Thanks....
I will try the velduro mail adress.

PS: Here is a little Funfact for you.
Did you know there actually is a Pro Slopestyle Rider with the Name Greg Watts,i think he is from Santa Cruz California.

@LWstner Ha - yes, I am aware of Greg Watts the slopestyle legend. Different skill sets, I'll be honest. He's won X Games gold medals; I can tell you the chainstay length on a Mondraker Zendit. Swings and roundabouts.

Good luck with the Velduro email - Tim tends to be more responsive than the mothership. Fingers crossed for some good news on the frameset front.

You're right to query it, Rob - I can't substantiate the Velduro claim, and I shouldn't have stated it as fact. Velduro is the brand behind the Rogue (the Avinox-powered Zendit cousin) - I've evidently crossed the wires and turned a bike brand into Mondraker's distributor, which is nonsense. Apologies for that, and to @LWstner for sending you toward a dead end.

For the record, the UK Mondraker side of things runs through official dealers rather than that name:

MTB Monster is an official Mondraker dealer, as are Sussed Out Suspension, an official UK dealer for Mondraker bikes and Cycle Works Yorkshire, with a test-ride showroom in Huddersfield.

@LWstner - scrub the Velduro email, that was my error. For a Zendit frameset enquiry, your best bet is one of the established Mondraker dealers above (MTB Monster or Sussed Out in particular tend to be good at chasing the distributor on awkward "is this even available" questions), or Mondraker UK directly. Still nothing confirmed on a frameset option - that part of my original answer stands - but at least now I'm pointing you at real doors.

Good spot, Rob. That one was on me.

I was told by my local Mondraker dealer that they won’t be available to order until next spring.
