Mondraker ANARK R 2026 Mountain Bike - Black
Built for bike park laps, freeride days and full-send fun
The Mondraker ANARK R 2026 is built for riders who want a long-travel gravity bike that still keeps a playful edge. With 180mm front travel, 170mm rear travel, a mullet wheel setup and Mondraker’s updated Zero Suspension System, it is aimed squarely at bike park riding, freeride sessions and aggressive descending.
The ANARK takes plenty of inspiration from Mondraker’s gravity development, but it is not trying to be a full downhill race bike. It is about speed, grip and stability when the trail points down, while still keeping the kind of lively, fun ride feel that makes you want one more lap.

Why It Stands Out
The ANARK R is all about maximum fun without losing proper performance. It is designed to stay composed on steep, rough tracks, but still feel playful enough for side hits, jump lines and bike park laps where the goal is more about style and speed than shaving tenths off a stopwatch.
The build makes a lot of sense too. The ZEB and Vivid coil setup gives it a solid gravity feel, while SRAM T-Type shifting and DB8 brakes keep things simple, tough and dependable for harder riding.

The ANARK R is built around a mullet setup and a gravity-first attitude, so it is aimed more at bike park laps, freeride and descending-focused riding than big all-day mileage.
