Rocky Mountain Element Alloy 50 Bike 2023You Get The Best of Both WorldsWhen it comes to climbing, sprinting on the flats, and handling technical terrain with ease, nothing quite beats a trail bike. Trail bikes have longer travel than cross-country bikes but are not as aggressive as enduro bikes. The Rocky Mountain Element Alloy 50 Bike is purpose-built to hit the precise sweet spot between lightweight cross-country climbing and technical precision. It features a FORM Alloy frame that uses 120mm of travel on the rear and 130mm of travel on the front. The frame features RIDE-4 Adjustable Geometry so you can dial in your ride perfectly. The Element also has internal cable routing, integrated frame protection, and spots for water bottle cages. The 50 version of the Rocky Mountain Element Alloy comes with a Shimano SLX/XT 12-speed drivetrain. This includes a cassette that has a hill-crushing 10-51T gear range that makes climbing and getting through those more difficult parts of the ride much easier. Shimano SLX hydraulic disc brakes provide excellent stopping power so you can descend with confidence. WTB ST Light i27 TCS 2. 0 tubeless-ready rims are paired with Maxxis Rekon tires that can be set up tubeless for a smoother ride, better traction, and fewer flats. With the Rocky Mountain Toonie Dropper Post, you'll be able to quickly lift and lower your saddle with the press of a lever.
