2022 Rocky Mountain Altitude

Win Every Race on the Altitude

The Rocky Mountain Altitude is purpose-built and race-proven. It's an enduro machine for demolishing the trails and riding as fast as possible. Just ask Jesse Melamed. He won the 2022 Enduro World Series on this bike, so you know it's a top competitor. The 2022 Altitude is available in alloy or carbon builds in three sizes, with 27.5" or 29" wheels.

It has the same frame as the Instinct, but with a different upper shock mount and a different size shock. Enjoy 170mm front and 160mm rear travel. You’re positioned directly over the front end for unyielding control. And, you can adjust the geometry to your liking with the RIDE-9 system and 2-position rear axle. What more do you need in a trail companion?
