The Madonna V3 is the most capable, adjustable, and durable bike we’ve ever built. It’ll take on the roughest tracks, the longest rides, all the while never shying away from a climb.
While we haven’t lost our focus on durability, we’ve added adjustability to make it even more versatile. The fourth iteration of the Madonna will have your back, no matter what.
If you want to learn more about the shock choice or the two different rocker link options, you can find all details about the Madonna V3 on this page.
The frames are regularly available with the rocker link options shown in the selection on the side. If you prefer a different rocker link, please send us an e-mail to hello@raawmtb.com and we will check the availability of the preferred configuration.

Shock Options & compatibility
You want to use a different shock? We can only guarantee full compatibility with the Fox and Öhlins models we offer and recommend. However, the Madonna frame does offer ample clearance for almost all shocks. Only if the shock body or reservoir is too big it might interfere with the downtube or lower shock mount at full travel. You can find more information on the support page under "Compatibility information".

About a year ago, I started considering purchasing an Enduro mountain bike. The basic requirements were that it needed to have an aluminum frame, external cable routing, be stable during high-speed descents, and also capable of some pedaling. It was then that the Madonna V3 caught my attention. After some consideration and watching countless review articles and videos, I made the decision to buy it. At that time, the previous batch of frames had already sold out. Through email communication with the staff, I learned that the next batch of frames was still being produced in Taiwan, and the estimated arrival time was around the end of 2024. I continued to wait.
One day, I received a notification that the frame had arrived. Without hesitation, I placed my order immediately. Coincidentally, it was around Christmas, and the logistics were affected by the holiday. By the time the frame was delivered to my doorstep, it was already January 2025.
I spent a few days assembling the Madonna V3.
Until today, I think I can finally write down some of my thoughts about the Madonna V3.
This bike, in almost every aspect, has met my needs.
The design of the Madonna is very sleek, with the frame mostly composed of straight lines;
The fully external cable routing design made it very convenient for me to assemble the bike myself.
When it comes to riding, the Madonna is exceptionally stable during descents, giving a very reassuring feeling.
Below is the configuration of my Madonna V3:
-Frame: Madonna V3
-Size: Medium Color: Raw
-Fork: Rockshox ZEB 2023
-Shock: Öhlins TTX22m.2
- Drivetrain: SRAM X01 and Hope
-Wheels: DT Swiss FR541 with Industry Nine Hydra Hub
-Brakes: Hope Tech 4 V4
-Seatpost: OneUp V3

Leider konnte ich wetterbedingt noch nicht fahren, aber der Aufbau hat super viel Spaß gemacht.

Geometry first Kinematics sec…first
A really good way to choose a bike is starting with geo and then kinematics, point being that it doesn't matter how good the anti-rise or anti-squat or whatever is if you are simply not in the right position on your bike, but with the Madonna you do not need to choose! I’ve had the Specialized Enduro, the Ibis HD6, Turbo Levo all with weird combinations of Cascade Components linkages and EXT Storias and Vorsprung Smashpot kits and stem/bar combos, and the Madonna was the first bike to just feel right out of the box, the low BB combined with the high stack and long CS length make for an excellent bike. It then also has great kinematics. This bike is the closest thing I’ve had to my favorite bike with was the Guerilla Gravity Gnarvana, although I preferred their approach to external routing slightly more, I am happy the Madonna is all external and was a major factor in buying the bike as someone that is constantly doing maintenance.

Madonna V3 - Mein Bike für alles und für immer!!! :-)
Durch einen guten Freund bekam ich die Gelegenheit eine Abfahrt im Bikepark mit seinem Madonna V2.2. zu machen.
Ich fühlte mich direkt sehr wohl, da sich das Bike sehr intuitiv fahren lies und mir Selbstvertrauen für die für mich schwierigeren Stellen der Strecke gab.
Auch wenn das folgende Bike keine Raaw wurde, habe ich das Gefühl dieser einen(!) Abfahrt nicht vergessen.
Da mir dieses andere Bike nicht im Ansatz diese Gefühl gab, war nach wenigen Monaten klar, das es für mich nur ein Bike von Raaw werden kann.
Nach meinen vielen Mails mit vielen Fragen, die mir alle immer schnell, freundlich und vollständig beantwortet wurden stand ich eines Tages mit Herzklopfen für dem Tor von Raaw.
Der Tag des Testrides verlief sehr angenehm und entspannt.
Kurz zusammen gefasst:
-Erkärung zum Ablauf des Testrides
-dazu ein koffeinhaltigen Heißgtränk
-Setup des Bikes
-Autofahrt zum empfohlenen Trail
-einige Male Uphill und Trailabfahrt
-zurück zu Raaw
-Testbike zurückgegeben
-ein weiteres koffeinhaltigen Heißgtränk
-Bike konfiguriert und bestellt :-D
Nach nun mehreren Tagen im Wald konnte ich mein "perfekt für alles" Madonna V3 genießen.
Viel Text für viel Bike! ;-)
Ich bin sehr froh ein Teil der Raaw Familie zu sein und das ist mir sehr viel wert!
Vielen Dank an des gesamte Team von Raaw für Freundlichkeit, Zuverlässigkeit und Professionalität!!!
