Also on the Rocky Mountain team. Rebecca Baraona was fourth in the women’s category, competing for Yeti. Nadeau Lanthier was eighth. Another Rocky Mountain rider.

Rocky Mountain Altitude is Purpose-Built and Race-Proven

It’s no surprise that the Rocky Mountain Altitude was the winning bike for EWS 2022. As the brand says, it’s the ultimate enduro weapon for fast sessions and demolishing steep trails. The same is the frame as the Rocky Mountain Instinct. Just with a different upper shock mount and a different shock size. It boasts a 170mm fork and 160mm rear travel. You’re positioned directly over the front end for unmatched control.

Geometry specs are adjustable with the RIDE-9 system and two-position rear axle. Other features are a Shimano XT cassette and Shimano XT Trail 4 Piston breaks. Along with a Race Face Turbine R seatpost and Race Face AR 30 rims. The bike comes in seven builds and four frame sizes with 27.5″ or 29″ wheels. Color options are Grey/Pink and Green.

Yeti SB150 is a Race Bred Superbike for Fast Descents

For the SB150, it has won more races stages it has started than any other EWS race bike. Earning nine first-place wins over the last four years. This is an aggressive enduro trail bike that promises the most thrilling rides. The Switch Infinity suspension provides the most efficient pedaling platform for trekking up and down hills. You get 170mm front travel and 150mm travel in the rear with obstacle-crushing 29″ wheels.

A low stack height and steep seat tube angle keep you in a very comfortable climbing position. While the geometry gives you a stable ride around corners. The SRAM code RSC brakes are incredibly responsive for the best stopping power. Cables are also routed through the frame, so there’s no rattling as you’re demolishing the trails. There are five builds plus frame-only in three bold colors. Including Yeti Turquoise.
