Madonna V3 Frame Kit - Black 

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".

Madonna V3

Coming from someone with basic mechanical skills, ordering a rolling chassis Madonna was a bit intimidating. However, the bike went together perfectly. Raaw support was amazing - Sophia would respond immediately and was sooo helpful. The bike itself is beautiful, burly, and well thought out. Lifetime customer now. And no, I’m not writing this review for the free Raaw fender.

Ive been on the fence about buying a Raaw for some time now and finally pulled the trigger. I have to say, as someone who works on bikes a lot, the Raaw has been one of the best bikes I have ever owned in 30+ years of MTB-ing. Classic suspension design, where the little things stand out. I love when all the bolts on a frame only use a few hex key sizes so you are not constantly changing tools. It’s a very quick and efficient bike to work on. I ride over 200+ days a year so things are always wearing out and breaking and having this bike has been a joy to work on. I have mine built up as a “big bike” 180mm Fork with a long stroke shock to achieve 172mm rear wheel travel. Still, this bike is fine for big pedal days. Its an extremely efficient peddling bike. You do feel the weight, but it still climbs exceptionally well. When pointed down, the bike is very stable at speed, and it really holds true to being a bike you can let go a little bit longer with. Very happy as well with the communication from Raaw. Being in the US I don’t really try for phone support, but their email communication is fantastic. Very responsive and very helpful. It’s important for me to know that if I have an issue they will respond quickly. Thank you Raaw!

Madonna V3 - actually a great climber!

I read the review on Pink Bike review by Mike Kazamier, and was sold, never having ridden or seen the bike in person, I knew this was the bike for me!

I bought the bike for my 50th birthday (May2024). I was an avid bike racer in my past life :-) I always enjoyed super technical trails and wanted to buy one bike to slay the trails and not suffer too terribly up the climbs.

The Madonna v3 fit the bill. In addition, since was 7 years since my last bike purchase, I wanted to tray new stuff, which I never did, in this case that was a coil shock and mullet setup.

As setup, i.e. mullet, coil shock, the bike rides like a dream. The coil feel together with the excellent RAAW suspension design is the best bike I've ever ridden! The thing descends like mad, but when the hills get steep it climbs like a billy goat.

Honestly, for such a long travel bike, it's not that heavy and climbs well. Great job RAAW team!

My only complaint is that I want another RAAW and my wife will be pissed! :-)

Seriously, for flow trails I would love a Jibb, while for the super steep, chunky trails, the Madonna is the absolute choice.

Cheers!
