The 2023 Rocky Mountain Altitude Carbon 50 is designed to tackle the steepest trails and provide a thrilling ride whether you're racing or enjoying a leisurely weekend shred. This mountain bike is built with enduro prowess in mind, pushing your limits while inviting you to climb faster and ride harder. With its sophisticated features, the Altitude ensures that both experienced riders and ambitious mountain bikers can make the most of every downhill and uphill adventure.

At the core of the Altitude is the SMOOTHWALL™ Carbon frame. This lightweight yet robust material enhances performance by efficiently transferring your energy to the trail. Combined with full sealed cartridge bearings and internal cable routing, the bike not only looks sleek but also minimizes maintenance, allowing you to focus more on your rides. The adjustable RIDE-9™ geometry system provides flexibility depending on your riding style or trail conditions, while the 160mm travel offers excellent suspension capabilities to absorb bumps and jumps you may encounter.

The Shimano Deore XT groupset ensures precision and reliability in gear shifts, letting you smoothly navigate any terrain with ease. You can count on the Shimano XT Trail 4 Piston brakes with metal pads to deliver powerful stopping power, allowing for confident descents even when things get a little wild. The combination of a 203mm front rotor and a 180mm rear rotor means you’ll experience consistent braking performance, whether you're flying downhill or climbing tough inclines.

The bike rolls on WTB ST Light i30 TCS 2.0 Tubeless wheels, which are built for performance. These tubeless-ready wheels not only reduce the risk of flats but also allow for lower tire pressures, increasing traction when you need it most. The 29-inch wheels provide stability and a smooth ride over rugged terrains, making them perfect for tackling challenging trails. The Fox 38 Float EVOL GRIP Performance Series fork with 170mm travel brings a level of responsiveness and control that will make you feel at one with the bike.

The Rocky Mountain Altitude Carbon 50 caters to mountain bikers who are eager for something capable, whether you're hitting the race circuits or exploring your local trails with friends. Its balanced features and unisex design mean it's suitable for a variety of riders looking to elevate their mountain biking experience.

Rider feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with many praising the bike’s climbing ability and stability at speed. Users appreciate how the Altitude makes technical descents feel manageable while offering the comfort needed for all-day rides. This blend of performance and comfort is exactly what you want when pushing your limits on the trails.

Combine all these aspects, and the 2023 Rocky Mountain Altitude Carbon 50 stands out as an outstanding choice for those who are serious about their mountain biking adventures. Whether it’s racing on circuits or enjoying epic weekend rides, this bike has you covered.
