STEALTH<br />
SIDE ALLOY STRUCTURE<br />
TECHNOLOGY<br />
Stealth is the most advanced industrial design<br />
and structure optimisation technology used in<br />
the Mondraker range. Stealth encompasses all<br />
processes in the creation of the frame, from the<br />
inspiration and conception of the industrial design<br />
to the calculation of the most precise details that<br />
optimise each part for a specific function.<br />
The new Dune has an oversized frame with<br />
a top tube that is split into two to provide<br />
two points of attachment to the down<br />
tube, leaving a window inside giving a<br />
very characteristic look. This tube provides<br />
greater rigidity to the front wheel assembly<br />
while it has a marked sloping towards<br />
the seat tube following the design line<br />
set by the rear stays, providing more free<br />
space for greater mobility and optimum<br />
handling in the top area.<br />
Stealth offers an innovative design characterised<br />
by flat faces and sharp edges,<br />
as opposed to the traditional curved or<br />
rounded shapes, which come together to<br />
form a complete whole. Each tube and<br />
part is designed to carry out a specific<br />
function with the lowest possible weight.<br />
Careful design has gone into its processes,<br />
materials and tapering while a range of alloys<br />
have been used that deliver strength<br />
and rigidity where needed.<br />
Frame development has drawn on the latest<br />
market trends such as a one-piece upper<br />
crown, integrated Tapered 1.5 head angle,<br />
12 x 142 mm rear thru-axle for the R, RR<br />
and XR models, direct 160 mm Post Mount<br />
rear brake adapter and a new Direct Mount<br />
derailleur holder that is fully removable for<br />
clean installation of a 1 x 11 S transmission.<br />
