Mondraker Arid Carbon RR Carbon Gravel Bike 2027 in Super Black

The Mondraker Arid Carbon RR combines advanced carbon engineering with gravel-specific design to deliver an exceptional balance of speed, comfort and versatility. Built around Mondraker's lightweight Stealth Air Carbon frame, the Arid RR features carefully considered geometry that provides responsive handling while maintaining stability and control across challenging terrain. The matching Stealth Air Carbon fork offers improved vertical compliance to help absorb vibrations from uneven surfaces, while internal cable routing creates a clean, streamlined appearance. With clearance for tyres up to 50mm wide, the Arid RR is equally suited to competitive gravel racing and ambitious off-road adventures.

Equipped with a SRAM Force AXS wireless shifting system paired with an X0 Eagle AXS T-Type rear derailleur, the Arid Carbon RR combines precise electronic gear changes with an expansive 10-52T cassette. This mullet drivetrain configuration delivers the gearing needed to conquer steep climbs while maintaining efficiency on faster sections. The SRAM Force XPLR carbon chainset features an integrated power meter, allowing riders to track their efforts and optimise performance during training and racing. A 40T narrow-wide chainring provides reliable chain retention over rough terrain, while SRAM Force hydraulic disc brakes offer powerful, controlled stopping performance in changing conditions.

The Arid Carbon RR is completed with premium Zipp 303 XPLR S carbon wheels, featuring 54mm deep aerodynamic rims and a 32mm internal width designed specifically for gravel riding. Goodyear XPLR Inter 700x45 tyres provide dependable traction across mixed surfaces, while the Onoff S9 GR carbon handlebars offer additional control through their 16° flare. An improved integrated frame storage compartment provides convenient space for tools and riding essentials, while the Fizik Vento Argo X5 saddle and carbon seatpost enhance comfort over longer distances. Weighing just 8.1kg, the Arid Carbon RR delivers a lightweight, capable and versatile platform for riders who want to push their limits on every gravel adventure.
