Mondraker F-Play 26 Mint Core
The Mondraker F-Play 26 Mint Core is a proper full-suspension kids electric mountain bike for older young riders who are ready to take on bigger trails. With 26 inch wheels, 140mm front suspension, 130mm rear travel, MAHLE X30 electric assistance, a 250Wh internal battery and Mondraker's Zero Suspension System, it gives junior riders the confidence, grip and control to ride further, climb easier and progress on real mountain bike terrain.
Key Highlights
The F-Play 26 is built for young riders who already love mountain biking and need a bike that can keep up with their growing confidence. It offers more travel, more control and a more capable ride than a standard kids e-bike, making it ideal for trail centres, forest loops, family MTB days and junior riders pushing their skills further.
Full Suspension Trail Control
With 140mm front travel and 130mm rear travel, the F-Play 26 gives young riders extra grip, comfort and confidence on rougher trails.
MAHLE X30 Assistance
The MAHLE X30 hub-drive system gives smooth electric support for climbs and longer rides, while keeping the bike feeling light, agile and natural.
250Wh Internal Battery
The integrated 250Wh battery keeps the frame clean and balanced, giving extra help for longer routes without making the bike feel bulky.
Zero Suspension System
Mondraker's Zero Suspension System is designed to improve sensitivity, traction and pedalling response, helping young riders stay in control.
Proper Trail Components
Shimano Deore 12-speed gearing, Shimano 4-piston brakes, Maxxis Minion tyres and a dropper post make this a genuine junior trail e-MTB.
Mint Core Finish
The Mint Core colour gives the F-Play 26 a fresh, premium look that stands out on the trail and matches Mondraker's sharp adult-bike styling.
Full Product Description
The Mondraker F-Play 26 Mint Core is designed for older young riders who are ready for a bigger, more capable electric mountain bike. It takes the feel and confidence of a proper full-suspension trail bike and scales it into a junior-friendly package with 26 inch wheels, modern geometry and smooth electric assistance.
At the heart of the bike is the MAHLE X30 electric drive unit. This system gives subtle, helpful support when the trail points uphill or the ride starts to get longer. It is not designed to overpower the rider. Instead, it helps young riders keep momentum, enjoy climbs more and stay involved on family mountain bike rides.
The MAHLE iX250Wh internal battery is built neatly into the frame, helping the bike keep a clean look and a balanced ride feel. That matters on a junior e-MTB, because a bike that feels natural and controlled gives young riders more confidence when the trail gets rough or technical.
The big advantage of the F-Play 26 is its full-suspension frame. Mondraker's Zero Suspension System gives 130mm of rear travel, paired with a 140mm X-Fusion Slant RC air fork up front. This gives the bike more comfort, traction and control over roots, rocks, braking bumps and trail centre features.
The component package is properly trail-ready. Shimano MT520 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes give powerful stopping control, while the Shimano Deore M6100 12-speed drivetrain and wide 11-51T cassette provide the gear range needed for climbs and mixed terrain. The Maxxis Minion DHF and DHR II tyres add proper grip for young riders learning to ride with more speed and confidence.
This is a brilliant option for junior riders who are progressing quickly and want a bike that will not hold them back. Whether it is for trail centres, natural singletrack, family riding or keeping up with adults, the Mondraker F-Play 26 Mint Core gives young riders a proper full-suspension e-MTB experience.
Because it gives older young riders the confidence of full suspension, the extra help of smooth MAHLE electric assistance and the feel of a proper Mondraker trail bike. It is made for kids and early teenagers who want to ride further, climb easier and progress their mountain biking skills on real trails.
