The 2019 Rocky Mountain Solo 70 has seen a few updates, including new drivetrain specs, a dropper post, and high volume 650B tires. Here's our full review..
Modern features like thru-axles, big tire clearance, and various mounts.
Fast and stable on gravel, dirt, and pavement.
Lower price point than some carbon and steel options.
Versatile build kit that will make any type of road very fun.
Aluminum frame isn’t the most comfortable, and is best suited for long day rides and lightweight overnighters.
A few component swaps may be in order, including the alloy bars, tape, dropper post lever position, and tires.
Some of the threaded bosses could be tweaked to be more effective, fingers crossed for 2020.
Stock WTB Byway tires showing damage / signs of wear after a few months of riding.
Stock SRAM rear hub may not have greatest track record when it comes to reliability.
