Mondraker F-Podium Unlimited Flight Attendant: the union of two references
Mondraker partners with Rockshox to include the renowned Flight Attendant technology in one of the brand's flagship models, the F-Podium. The announcement comes just weeks before the best riders in the world gather in the Brazilian town of Mairipora to compete in the first XCC and XCO World Cup race of the season. This is an extra limited edition of which only 20 units will be produced, beyond the bikes that the Primaflor-Mondraker-Genuins team will use.

The exclusive F-Podium Unlimited Flight Attendant adds this suspension system to the top-of-the-line RR SL model. In addition, the designs and graphics aim to be in the same minimalist line as the new SID Ultimate/Luxe FA, while the colors continue this idea and are also inspired by competition.
The brand's statement aims to convey the ambition with which the Primaflor-Mondraker-Genuins team faces the first assault of the World Cup. Rebecca Henderson conquered Mairipora two years ago and gave the team and the F-Podium their first victory in the competition. However, the Australian is now in full rehabilitation process after suffering an injury during the Australian National Championship.
These 20 F-Podium bikes will feature the famous Flight Attendant, the -wireless- technology with Rockshox seal that is applied to both the fork and the shock absorber and that through a mathematical algorithm chooses -automatically and almost instantly- whether the suspension should be open, locked, or at an intermediate point.
The algorithm is capable of learning from the rider's outings and fine-tunes decision-making to be 1.8% faster than manual selection. In addition, it allows adjusting the actuation sensitivity of the suspensions and acts independently on the fork and shock absorber.
In this case, the 20 F-Podiums will feature the Adaptive Ride Dynamics tool, which collects data from previous outings, calculates intensity zones, updates them, and incorporates new data.
As expected, Flight Attendant can be configured through the SRAM AXS app, where the three main usage modes can be selected: automatic, manual, and override -fixed suspension position-.
