Mondraker Introduces the ANARK Freeride Bike 1

Modern geometry, kinematics and performance for the wilder side of riding.

The all-new ANARK enters the Mondraker gravity line-up for 2026, designed with a fun-first approach it slides straight into the bike park and freeride category. ANARK brings modern geometry, kinematics and performance to the wilder side of riding. It’s about the most fun you can have on a mountain bike. We’re talking face aching grins; sock marks on dusty shins and that urge for one last party train. ANARK is all about getting in that bike park shred state. Slappin’ turns and spraying dirt.

Bike parks and trails designed for maximum fun are on the up, and the new ANARK is the bike to find your shred state on. It builds on the success of the Foxy platform and pulls from the MFR race development program to offer our most exciting long travel gravity rig to date. Say hello to your new favorite freeride machine (no need to wear speed suits).

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Inspired by Summum, the new ANARK takes suspension capabilities and handling precision and combines them with the durability and rounded performance needed outside of the race tape. The result is a bike that you can still pedal uphill anywhere, anytime, but that really shines when the trail is pointing down.

Although ANARK can mix it up with race bikes, it really comes to life on uplift days or slamming in party laps in the bike park. Because it is not always about the sharpest lines to find milliseconds. Sometimes it is about turning the trail into a playground. About going the long way round to hit that natural kicker on the edge of the trail. About jumping higher and going sideways. About speed for the thrill, rather than for the prize.

Full aluminum frame construction; the latest ZERO suspension kinematics and a mullet wheel size layout are designed for all-out hammering - yet ANARK still maintains a precise and playful ride that echoes back to its roots. Find your flow in the rough; massage contours for speed; carve up those lips. And then do it all again. Get into your Shred State with ANARK.

STEALTH ALLOY EVO - STURDY YET SVELTE

Built for durability and tuned with smart geo adjust, ANARK is ready to stand out at any bike park, delivering pure downhill-focused performance. Designed for bike park fanatics and freeride souls, delivering downhill strength and resilience with the agility to adapt to any challenge, trick or descent, thanks to refined geometry.

SHUTTLE READY

An integrated downtube pick-up pad protects the frame from damage and makes shuttle run load ups easier and faster.

UNIFIED BEARING SIZE

Single bearing size on all pivot points, plus additional inner and out sealing, same setup as seen on SUMMUM and ZENDIT.

KEY FRAME FEATURES

  • Stealth Alloy EVO construction - 6061 series aluminium for optimum strength to weight ratio
  • Variable thickness hydro-formed tubing optimizes weight and stiffness
  • Compact, reinforced swingarm - designed to take on everything the trail throws at it
  • Internal cable routing
  • Rubber chainstay silencers

ZERO SUSPENSION SYSTEM

The suspension kinematics inherited from SUMMUM combined with the responsiveness of ZENDIT - but in a lighter platform - give ANARK an unbeatable feel for bike park sessions and all-out riding days on the trails. Next-level kinematic performance delivers a more sensitive initial stroke for maximum grip and a stable, planted feel built to handle aggressive riding at speed. ANARK is more than just a mini SUMMUM - it’s a perfect vessel for tackling all aggressive terrain, where fun is the priority.

KINEMATICS IN NUMBERS

Leverage ratio shows a 25% progression rate with a 205x65mm rear shock, ideal for the application with coil spring rear shocks. Anti-squat at sag is around 98%, ideal number for its longer travel, capable, plush and efficient rear suspension. Anti-rise at sag is around 99.7%, close to 100% for the most ideal and the most independent action of the rear brake with rear suspension performance.

GEOMETRY

As with all the latest Mondraker bikes, ANARK is available in 5 sizes from S to XL - but with the focus being on the most aggressive and playful ride possible, the back end is 445mm across the board and has a 1mm length adjust when altering the Flip Chip, which also affects the reach in a 4mm reduction. Pivot points have been slightly adjusted throughout the sizes to deliver the same leverage ratio and kinematics on all model sizes.

Geometry changes are easy with a single bolt flip chip design.
