The Arid Carbon is Mondraker's gravel bike, and it brings the brand's mountain bike thinking to drop-bar riding. It's quick, engaging and genuinely at home on rough trails, and for 2026 it comes in fresh colours with well-chosen builds.
Its Stealth Air carbon frame is light yet durable, and a distinctive twin-spar rear end adds compliance and comfort over rough ground. The geometry borrows from the brand's mountain bikes, with a longer reach and slacker head angle for stability and confidence on technical terrain. There's clearance for tyres up to 50mm wide, and integrated down tube storage with custom-fitted pouches keeps a spare tube and tools out of the way. BikeRadar gave the Arid 4.5 stars, saying it was so capable on the trails they'd happily leave their mountain bike at home.
The Carbon RR is the top build at 8.8kg, with SRAM's new wireless Force XPLR AXS 13-speed groupset and a carbon power meter crankset, Zipp 303 XPLR S carbon wheels with 45mm Goodyear XPLR Inter tyres and an OnOff S9 carbon flared bar.
