2012 World Cup Finals From Hafjell With Trek World Racing

As the sole competitor racing for Trek World Racing at the World Cup finals here in Hafjell, Norway, Neko Mulally showed great pace in both qualifying and the final race to demonstrate he’s fully recovered from the injuries suffered earlier in the season. Unfortunately a hand injury sustained in practice forced Aaron Gwin out of the event. It was the same hand and injury location as that suffered in Val d’Isere at Round 6, but this time the bone was heavily bruised. Team mate Justin Leov was unable to attend the finals due to the unexpected loss of his best friend James Dodds, a pioneer in New Zealand mountain biking who was being remembered by many of the Kiwi riders here this weekend.

Mondraker Forward Geometry With Fabien Barel

Mondraker, lanza un revolucionario concepto dentro de la geometría del mountain bike ideado entre otros por Fabien Barel. Quien mejor que él para explicárnoslo en primera persona.

Mondraker, define así su nuevo concepto Forward Geometry:

La mejor manera de entender los cambios en la geometría es compararla directamente con una convencional. Foxy XR será el buque insignia del nuevo concepto Forward Geometry y es el mejor modelo para comparar longitudes y ángulos entre ambas geometrías, la línea Foxy representa nuestros productos más vendidos debido a la versatilidad de estos modelos All Mountain.

• La nueva Foxy FG tiene un tubo superior 60mm más largo, como consecuencia de un front-center 60mm más largo ya que el ángulo de dirección se mantiene igual.

• Tubo superior 60mm más largo + potencia de 10mm de la nueva Foxy FG = la misma longitud que con la potencia de 70mm de la Foxy con geometría tradicional.

• Foxy FG y Foxy estándar tienen las mismas distancias entre pedalier, sillín y manillar, esto significa la misma perfecta posición de pedaleo en ambas Foxy.

• La geometría general se mantiene en ambas Foxy si usamos la misma horquilla de 140mm de recorrido.
Estos cambios en la geometría muestran un triángulo delantero más largo que sitúa el eje de la rueda delantera hacia adelante, pero mantiene el manillar en la misma posición gracias a una potencia más corta. Esta es la clave del nuevo concepto Forward Geometry.

2013 Mondraker Summum

The new Summum frame has had an upgrade to offer an even better suspension performance thanks to the new kinematics and the use of bearings in the eyelets of the shock. This together with a new design of the the rear triangle allows us to shave off 200 grams with which the Pro Team version slips underneath the 15kg.

Mondraker launches an evolution geometry concept focused on our core bike range. The new Forward Geometry presents clear advantages for any categories compared with a traditional geometry, all this benefits are focused to improve the control, handling and riding confidence.

All our improves took our MS Mondraker Team rider Brook MacDonald to win one of the most exciting World Cup races at Val d´Isère.
