Nothing works without 27.5-inch wheels when it comes to new developments - and the 2014 Mondrake Dune is no exception. The bike offers 160 millimeters of travel at the front and rear and uses a VPP system. Mondraker is also innovative in several ways: the direct mount clamp can be removed to mount an 11-speed drivetrain without a front derailleur - which benefits a simple look, but still leaves the option of riding with a double or triple crankset. The "Forward Geometry" concept now also includes stems with a length of 30 millimetres; only the top model still comes with the uncompromisingly short stem, while the three other versions are more moderate - and probably also more suitable for the masses - with a 30 mm stem.
