Mondraker Kaoz 2027

Dirt jump mountain bike Mondraker Kaoz 2027

The Mondraker Kaoz 2027 is the new dirt jump bike in Mondraker gravity range, alongside the Summum DH competition bike and the new Anark bike park bike. With its instantly recognizable aesthetics, it's aimed at riders looking for a precise, robust bike designed for creative riding.

Designed for carving in concrete bowls, pumping on hard-packed dirt rollers, or launching off perfectly shaped jumps, the Kaoz is a bike developed to express your style. Its single-speed design, Stealth Alloy EVO frame, and dirt jump-oriented components make it a simple, solid machine focused directly on riding.

The Mondraker Kaoz features a dirt jump-specific geometry, with adjustable chainstay length for better performance on dirt jumps or at speed. It's available in two sizes, M and L, with a 25mm difference in reach to maintain agile and fun handling regardless of rider height.

Frame

Stealth Alloy EVO frame

The Mondraker Kaoz uses a Kaoz 6061-T6 Stealth Alloy EVO frame with hydroformed tubes, 26-inch wheels, and Forward Geometry. True to Mondraker DNA, this dirt jump frame is engineered with precision and features specifically designed for the sport.

6061-T6 aluminum construction

The frame is made of 6061-T6 aluminum with hydroformed tubes of varying thickness. This construction aims to offer a good balance between stiffness, strength, and precise handling.

Reinforcement behind the head tube

The opening behind the head tube is not just for design. It acts as a stiffening reinforcement designed to limit unwanted flex, in order to maintain precise and responsive handling.

Split-forged bottom bracket

The Kaoz features a unique two-piece, split-forged bottom bracket. On a frame designed to withstand high compression, this area is essential for stiffness and strength.

Bottom bracket rigidity

The most significant stresses converge at the bottom bracket. The two-piece forged design allows for a continuity of shape towards the rear stays, eliminating abrupt welds and stress concentration points.

Resistance to committed receptions

This construction helps to provide high lateral rigidity and better resistance to fatigue, an important element for withstanding the most demanding landings in dirt jumps.

Silent Core Internal Passage

The frame incorporates internal Silent Core cable routing with a clean cable entry at the head tube. This design reduces cable noise and allows for quieter landings.

Ready for the tailwhips

The Kaoz is equipped with an extended rear brake hose, ready for barspins and tailwhips.

Synchronized sliding legs

The frame is complemented by sliding dropouts with integrated tensioner and caliper bracket. This system allows for simultaneous adjustment of chain tension and brake caliper alignment.

Chain tension adjustment

The sliding tabs allow chain tension adjustment without the need to recalibrate the caliper. An oversized adjustment knob allows for precise adjustments.

Single speed transmission

With a focus on durability and simplicity, the Kaoz is designed around a single speed drivetrain.

Dirt jump geometry

The Kaoz adopts a specific dirt jump geometry, with an adjustment of the rear chainstay length to better adapt to dirt or speed.

Two sizes available

The bike is available in two sizes: M (415 mm) and L (440 mm). A 25 mm difference in reach separates the two sizes to ensure an agile and fun ride for different body types.

RockShox Pike DJ fork

The Mondraker Kaoz is equipped with a RockShox PIKE DJ 26-inch fork with 100 mm of travel, Charger cartridge, tapered steerer, 15x100 mm axle and 40 mm offset.

Onoff headset

The headset is an Onoff custom ZS56/ZS56, compatible with a 1-1/8” steerer tube and a 1.2” head tube.
