At the heart of the bike is Mondraker’s Stealth Air Carbon frame, balancing lateral stiffness for efficient power transfer with vertical compliance to smooth rough surfaces and reduce rider fatigue. The Forward Geometry platform, featuring a 70° headtube angle and 425mm chainstays, delivers stable yet agile handling, while five available sizes, including the new M/L, ensure an optimal fit for a wide range of riders. This careful balance of geometry and frame design provides control, responsiveness, and confidence across diverse gravel conditions.

Equipped with the SRAM Force XPLR AXS 13-speed drivetrain, the Arid Carbon RR provides crisp electronic shifting and a wide gear range optimized for varied terrain. The Zipp 303 XPLR carbon wheels paired with Goodyear XPLR Inter 700x45 tires offer speed, traction, and reliability over loose or rough surfaces. Integrated Carry-On downtube storage allows secure, accessible storage for tools or nutrition, protected by a watertight cover, while multiple frame and fork mounts, including six bottle cage options, enable a fully configurable adventure setup. Generous tire clearance up to 50mm ensures grip, comfort, and stability on the roughest rides.
