Proton Death Project


Electric Dreams

What if...

I always ask..."what if...".  No matter what.  What if that bike had more travel?  What if THAT bike HAD travel?  What if I could go down that set of stairs...on a touring bike?  What if...


So as I get older and stiffer and much sorer than last year, and the year before, and...I think about e-MTBs and 'what if'.  And yes, I HATE e-Bikes!   But.  What if?  My theory is "when I can't ride any longer, I'll need to think of something...what if..."


So when I saw the new Husqvarna Mountain Cross...yeah, THEY make bikes...I had to look into it.  Then rumblings started of COTIC coming out with an e-bike!  WOOOO!  But that's years away.  Then I met a guy who works for Ducati, yeah, they sell ebikes...he wasn't will to help out so I did some digging into my vendor basket...


Out of the blue came Mondraker...I didn't really consider them as they never have bikes, so when I reached out to my rep?  Within a few days the bike was on it's way!  


So I present to you: PROTON DEATH PROJECT Mondraker Crafty T-RR!


I had to do a complete, ugh, but of course we'll strip off all the crappy parts and put some nice stuff on it: Ohlin's, TRP, e*thirteen and so on...but we'll mess around and see how it goes!  Stay tuned!

A page dedicated to the upgrades and how to's for this bike.  It's a bit tricky...so enjoy and hope it helps!

Using something I haven't used in a LONG time...SRAM!  So far really nice!!  My typical GO TO is TRP/e*13 on the drivetrains, but wanted to clear up some space around the motor and battery...so going wireless!  Why not!  E-Bike and all!?

This stuff is not only amazing, but super easy to install!  So cleaning up the cables just works on an ebike...more electronics to match the Project!
