FAQs

WHICH SHOCKS ARE COMPATIBLE WITH F-PODIUM?
You can fit any in-line type of shock such as FOX Float SL or RockShox SID Luxe that come stock on our bikes, or similar in 165x45mm metric sized Trunnion upper mount and 30x8mm bottom hardware.

WHICH IS THE MAXIMUM FORK TRAVEL I CAN USE ON F-PODIUM?
F-Podium is compatible with forks up to 120mm travel (stock forks on all F-Podium models). Mondraker does not recommend it, but it is possible to ride forks with less travel, 110mm or 100mm, taking into account that the steering angle will be steepened 0.5º every 10mm of shorter fork travel and the bottom bracket height to the ground will be reduced.

WHICH IS THE MAXIMUM TIRE WIDTH I CAN FIT ON F-PODIUM?
With a maximum recommended internal rim width of 30mm the maximum recommended tire you can fit is 29 x 2.4" which guarantees proper clearance to shed mud.

WHICH IS THE BIGGEST CHAINRING I CAN USE ON F-PODIUM?
F-Podium is only compatible with 1X drivetrains up to a 38T round-standard type ring or 36T oval ring.

HOW MANY WATER BOTTLES CAN I INSTALL ON F-PODIUM?
You can install two water bottles cages. One under the top tube with the precaution of using small screws of suitable thread length and the other one in the usual position on the down tube.
