2001 was a notable year for Rocky Mountain Bicycles. In October of that year, the Canadian brand’s team rider and prophetic pioneer of freeride, Wade Simmons, smashed, crashed and hucked his way to victory at the inaugural Red Bull Rampage in Virgin, Utah. That same year also saw the release of Rocky Mountain’s Slayer — a “trail” bike before the term had entered our vernacular.

The latest Rocky Mountain Slayer eats trails for tea and cleanses its palate with boulders and rubble.
The shape is perfect for what is ultimately a downhill bike that can be pedalled back up. There’s space for a water bottle!
Tall head tube could be a turn-off for some people who want it low on the front. Spec’d grips were on the narrow side.

On the flip side of that equation, the Slayer felt like a big bike when speeds were slow or when climbing.
