Designed to shred big mountain descents while still maintaining the ability to climb back up and do it all over again, Rocky Mountain is back with a new high-flying version of their beloved Altitude. The new Altitude sports a new LC2R suspension system with a low-slung pivot and a counter-rotating link design to provide a lower center of gravity and increased traction on heavy-hitting terrain.

The Altitude is topped off with Rocky Mountain's new Penalty Box 2. 0 internal frame storage, allowing us to store a spare tube, snacks, and valuables inside the bike's downtube.

The Alloy 30 Shimano build of the Altitude is a great value, entry-level build for performance out on the trails. Rocky Mountain's FORM alloy frame starts the build, boasting an impressively durable and stout aluminum frame to take on the rowdiest of riding. Shifting performance is handled by the reliable Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain, giving us a wide-range, 12-speed drivetrain for budget-o...
