Hi, I'm looking to buy a 2012 Mondraker Foxy R. I sold my Giant Reign for a shorter travel bike but I miss the smoothness of a longer travel bike :roll: . Has anybody demo'd the Mondraker Foxy R or own one? If so, what's your opinion? My Reign was a medium so I presume that I'd need a medium in the Foxy R too? Lastly, I've had a look online and there doesn't seem to be many places in the UK that stock Mondrakers, does anybody know of any sales on at the moment?
Thanks!

    Before anybody points it out.......I have searched on the forums but only found one related post back in 2011. I'm hoping that they've become more popular since then :D

    Not sure if this would interest you as it's frame only http://www.merlincycles.com/bike-shop/f ... -2012.html
    If you register with quidco and buy it through them you get a bit of cashback too, 3% I think. Not much but it's better in your pocket than theirs!

    Well all i can say is i own the 2010 Dune R,

    And its great a reall do it eat it all monster, so loving my draker best bike i have ever owned. i feel drakers tend to be more aggressive than there contenders but generally less xc orientated.

    Hi Thanks for all your replies - appreciate it!!! I did think about buying a frame etc but it will work out cheaper for a complete bike if I go for a 2011/12 model. I just like the look of them, plus Fabien Barel rides em so they must be good :lol:

    He signed for Canyon last week, so if that's a major consideration better think again.

    Canyon it is then! Only joking, the Foxy looks nice with or without Fabien Barel endorsing it.
