Expirience with the Rocky Mountain Altitude Carbon 90 Rally Edition

Ludwig Döhl When riding it as a on moderate runs, the Altitude Carbon 90 Rally Edition really comes into its own. With 14,8 kg weight for the complete bike, the Enduro of Rocky Mountain joins the lighter bikes that you can buy for under above 8000 Euro. Most bikes in its class are heavier. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The upright seating position gives the Rocky Mountain Altitude Carbon 90 Rally Edition a comfortable character. On climbs, the Enduro of Rocky Mountain lets you sweat. Other bikes 11500 Euro climb better. Trail lovers should nevertheless be convinced by this argument: in the downhill, the coherent geometry ensures you´ll have a wide smile in your face. With 5 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship. Pay attention when selecting your size: the Enduro of Rocky Mountain sizing runs small.
