All new from Mondraker, the ARID! Limitless potential the new Mondraker ARID is the perfect ride whatever your idea of gravel. We’ve created something that moves, something truly authentic.  Riding a bike in an ARID environment, regardless of terrain, can be seriously demanding. Bike and rider alike may be pushed to their very limits.

At Mondraker they thrive on that sensation. They live and work in one of Europe’s most arid regions, surrounded by dry, rocky, loose terrain where grip is often non-existent. Those feelings, that experience, led them to create in perhaps the most appropriate place possible their best gravel bike imaginable: the new Mondraker ARID.

Stealth Air Carbon is the elite-level carbon fibre construction process. The carbon fibre which makes up an ARID frame is designed, cut and assembled in such a manner that they've managed to create the most comfortable, the most vertically compliant fully rigid frame to ever come out of their workshops. And to top it all off, regardless of its gravel bike label, ARID meets and exceeds the same strict ISO standards as all of Mondraker's full-on mountain bikes. You see, lateral stiffness and power transfer don’t have to be incompatible with small-bump compliance and comfort.

ARID comes in 5 sizes, including the new M/L for riders who found other Mondraker's to be a little small in size M and a little large in size L.  Mondraker want their pioneering Forward Geometry to work for you, and to make that happen you need to be on a frame that’s the right size. That’s no longer going to be a problem with 5 frame sizes to choose from: S, M, ML, L and XL. 

Four builds make up the ARID range. ARID CARBON, ARID CARBON R, ARID CARBON RR, and ARID CARBON RR SL as the top-of-the-range build.  Mondraker want you to find your own personal ARID, based on the same Stealth Air Carbon frame and fork combo. You can go for Shimano on the ARID CARBON, or wireless SRAM on the other 3 builds. Mavic supplies wheels with 45mm Maxxis Reaver tyres throughout the range, except for the range-topping RR SL which boasts the spectacular Zipp 303 XPLR wheels and 45mm Goodyear tyres.
