The blue and orange colourway is instantly recognisable, having adorned McLaren's Formula One car in a tribute livery at the 2021 Monaco Grand Prix and numerous celebrations before it. However, the duo of colours was made famous by Ford's GT40 and Mirage race cars that won the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1968, 1969 and 1975. The colours are now synonymous with racing and speed, and are perhaps one of the prettiest liveries to grace the race track.

With its NEAT, Mondraker's first lightweight e-mountain bike launched in July of 2023, the brand has created a tribute, hand painting the iconic colours to the bike on top of a host of nods to Gulf. Owners of the NEAT Ultimate Edition will receive a certificate of authenticity, colour-matched touch-up pens, a poster and a special booklet.

The bike is powered by TQ's HPR-50 motor with a 360Wh integrated and removable battery. A 160Wh range extender can be bought additionally.
As for geometry, nothing changes as the bike gets the same 495mm reach on a large, 64.5-degree head tube angle, 76.5-degree effective seat tube angle and 450mm chainstay as seen on the standard NEAT.
The price is as premium as expected with Mondraker asking £11,900.
