Product Details
The Mondraker Arid Carbon Frameset is a premium gravel platform engineered to capture the freedom, challenge, and versatility that define modern gravel riding. Whether tackling rocky singletrack, smooth fire roads, long-distance endurance events, or spontaneous weekend exploration, this frameset adapts to any rider's definition of adventure through cutting-edge carbon engineering and signature Mondraker design philosophy.
Built with Mondraker's elite-level Stealth Air Carbon construction, the Arid frameset uses precision layup techniques that optimize each tube and joint for specific performance roles. This advanced manufacturing process balances vertical compliance for comfort with lateral stiffness for efficient power transfer, creating a frame that exceeds gravel standards while meeting ISO mountain bike standards for strength and durability. The rear triangle design provides controlled flex for improved traction and shock absorption over rough terrain, while the main frame's torsional stiffness ensures powerful acceleration on hardpack surfaces.
Developed and tested in one of Europe's most arid and rugged regions, the Arid is built to perform where terrain is harsh and grip is scarce. Mondraker's Forward Geometry ensures confidence, control, and stability, particularly at high speeds or on loose surfaces, maintaining consistent handling characteristics across all five frame sizes from S through XL, including the versatile M/L option for riders between standard sizes.
The innovative Carry-On downtube storage system introduces internal frame storage to Mondraker gravel bikes, featuring a watertight, dustproof cover accessing three removable, Velcro-secured pouches for tubes, tools, and essentials. Six total mounting points across the frame and fork, including under downtube positions and up to three mounts per fork leg, allow for complete customization for any ride style or distance. Fully internal HHG cable routing maintains clean aesthetics while protecting components, and generous tire clearance accommodates up to 50mm width for expanded terrain capability.
Perfect for riders building their ultimate gravel machine, the Arid Carbon Frameset combines authentic versatility with engineering precision, delivering a platform that's fast on smooth gravel yet capable on rugged, technical trails, a true celebration of gravel riding freedom.
