Expirience with the Rocky Mountain Element C90 Shimano

Rocky Mountain Element C90 Shimano Review Do you want to ride your bike tours on lower mountains? So does the Rocky Mountain Element C90. No matter how rowdy the ride gets: when shredding the Element C90, the 65 degree head tube angle and the long wheelbase ensure a pretty chilled handling. Anyone who has no special preferences for the seating position can´t go wrong with the Rocky Mountain Fully. Because the saddle takes the balanced approach. On the downhill, however, the Element C90 is left in the dust by its competitors. One should not forget: the geometry is the heart of a mountain bike. For 10500 Euro, Rocky Mountain provides more than the competitors in the same price range. With 5 years warranty, you can not go wrong.
