For This Bike
Jul 2019 · Richard Cunningham
Just-right geometry, great pedaling performance and a needs-nothing components pick for under $3,000 USD.
Efficient feel under power
Spot-on trail handling
Needs-nothing component spec
Won't flourish at the bike park
Ride 9 chip could be a negative in the wrong hands
Feb 2019 · Tom Marvin
Because the weight of the motor and battery is located centrally and low down, the bike is fairly stable and confident at speed, despite being a little short by modern standards.

A little bit of help makes for fast and fun rides on the trails

The Altitude might be longer, lower and slacker, but it continues to be a nimble and playful ride.

Rocky Mountain slot the radically overhauled 2018 Altitude into the category of an ‘aggressive trail’ bike. Sporting longer travel, a new frame and redesigned linkage the Altitude is longer, slacker and feeling the benefits. Review - Vitus Sommet VR Review - Canyon Spectral CF 8.0 The Light Stuff The frame of the Altitude has been updated across the range for 2018 and that includes the Alloy 30 model that we have in for test. The redesigned frame uses Rocky Mountain’s Form alloy with each tube optimised for strength, weight and ride quality.
