Mondraker E-Vantage RR+ 27.5" on test
Mondraker has its roots in downhill, and you can see that in the Spanish company's e-hardtail. The forward geometry with a short stem and long top tube ensures excellent directional stability.

In combination with the fat Maxxis tyres in Plus size and long 140 mm fork, high speeds are possible downhill. Tight bends, on the other hand, feel a little choppy. The equipment is very high quality and the remote seat post is particularly useful on this bike. The only thing that doesn't quite fit in with the overall concept is the small 400-cell battery. Presumably due to the wide tyres, the E-Vantage only reached 1110 metres in altitude, so you have to take this into account when choosing a tour or choose a larger battery.


ConclusionA bike for individualists who want an eye-catching hardtail with a classy touch and like to go faster downhill.
