Details

The Altitude from Rocky Mountain is here to push the trail bike envelope. The ultra-stiff frame pushes 150mm of rear travel out of a Fox DPX2 shock and features RM’s RIDE-9 interlocking chip design, allowing you to easily dial-in suspension characteristics to tackle any terrain — from technical BC loam to clapped out enduro tracks, flowy New Zealand jumps, and Moab slickrock. Aim the Fox 36 fork at the gnarliest descents and wheel-sucking ruts you can find. At 160mm, it’s built for brutality while delivering Fox’s sophisticated damping to keep you on rails through the risky line.

Rocky Mountain spec’d the Altitude to expand what is possible on any trail, no matter what price point fits your budget. The Carbon 50 benefits from the industry-leading stiffness-to-weight delivered by its highly refined Smoothwall carbon frame. It brings together a tremendous gear range, compliments of SRAM’s GX Eagle drivetrain, kept in check by the reliable power of Shimano SLX brakes. Maxxis tires and wide Sun Düroc rims provide a remarkable blend of trail sensitivity and gravity-savvy traction so you can find the ribbon of terra firma that thrills you, hit the dropper remote, and tear straight into the dream.

The RIDE-9 adjustment system allows riders to quickly fine-tune their geometry and suspension with a pair of Allen keys. Nine configurations are possible thanks to two interlocking chips. Position 1 geometry configuration shown below.
