Hello there,
I'm planning on buying a new full suspension MTB and am between two options: the Mondraker F-Podium or the Canyon Lux Trail CF6. I ride about two or three times a week for pleasure and don't intend to compete. Actually, I own a Canyon Exceed from 2017 that brings me everywhere.

On one hand, Mondraker seems to have one of the best suspension systems, but the components are entry-level (SID Base with Rush damper and SID shock). On the other hand, Canyon has a really good price tag, better components (FOX Performance 34 fork and Performance Elite shock), and a dedicated storage hole for tools. The suspension system is simpler and not as good as the Mondraker's.
Both bikes have similar geometry.
What are your thoughts?
Thank you.
