    It’s “quite nice looking” but the price is just pathetic headline grabbing.

    Yep – bit ugly.

    But also like a “machine from outer space”… brave designers these Mondraker folks!

    Crazy machine. Maybe a great bike. But pretty sure: will never see one in real life.

    Why do manufacturers keep trying to give us TT integrated stems. It wouldn’t look so bad if not for that. What’s the point…aero on a mtb??

    Genuine question- do people a actually buy these bikes? I sporadically see “superbikes” and 10k plus bikes on the web or featured in magazines etc and am wondering if they are made to actually sell or is it just for the publicity? A bit like a concept car at a car show or something?

    I’ve a friend with one Cannondale FS and one HT of similar eye watering price superbike tag. Both bought half price at the end of the season.

    It’s the same for mtb (inc DH!) as the road one 😂

    9KG is very light for a full sus bike and that weight may make a worthwhile difference if you are at the top of Elite level I suppose.
    Do you care what your bike looks like when you are XC world champ ?

    Yes, there are a lot of very rich people out there where £10k on a bike is just something to spend some money on that month.

    But no riding in any wooded areas with those wheels or stick-face-ground might cost you a few days off work so even more money

    I can’t find the rules for mountain bikes but the rules that contain the min’ weight of 6.8kg (?) or whatever it is don’t apply to mountain bikes

    I thought downhill was just “Powered by pedals”

    No idea if there are really “a lot”.
    But I’am surprised to see these 6 k to 10 k sleds.

    And yes – seems like they don’t care about the 10 k… after a year they have a new Dubai sled.
    Fine for them. Hope they have fun.

    All depends what you call a lot I suppose. Certainly a hundred thousand in this country alone. Only need a few that are into MTB or road cycling.
