Getting closer! Bit stuck at the moment, as the stem that came with was the 31.8 bar, rather than the 35 that I was expecting. Patience is not my strong point
Awesome build, is the frame orange and black? Some pictures make it look more red.
Currently deliberating between a foxy and a dune.
Yeah, it's orange - crappy cameraphone in crappy light. I have one photo where it looks pink
I was also looking at the Dune (and other 160mm enduro frames) but decided it would be too much bike for me 90% of the time. I've plonked 160mm forks on it which I'll probably lower a bit, then bring them back up for alpine trips etc. I have it on good authority that the geometry is such that you'll still feel confident on gnarly terrain.
Hit up Rob @ bikeactive for a quote. He did me an immense frame & fork deal. Top bloke too.
Hope so - struggling to find a dedicated mondraker/foxy page
I have a 2015 foxy r and need a new headset, but i cannot find for love nor money and specifications of the head tube; internal/external diameter for top/bottom.
I actually take a ruler to the bike and gone to look on FSA's headset finder but does nothing to help me. Mondrakers site has no detailed specs and i haven't heard anything back from Mondraker after emailing them a few days ago.

anyway; hope someone responds.
A google of the bike spec shows the fsa 57. Which should basically be a zs56 lower and a zs46 upper.

Cheers for responding! The thing thats confusing the hell out of me is that the FSA No. 57 keeps coming up to fit a 1 1/8 steerer, but the frame and fork i have are both tapered.
You don't need to buy an fsa headset though. Dozens of companies make zs56 and zs46 parts.
sorry to sound like a numpty, but i can't find zs46 bits... plenty of zs44 and zs49... no zs46's :S
EDIT: Think i've cracked it.
I think this is the current headset: http://fsa-4207.kxcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/NO.57E.pdf so i've just simply tracked down the bearings : FSA TH-873 (top) and FSA TH073 (bottom) and ordered them. Saves me having to try and replace the entire headset
