Résumé

The Rocky Mountain Element is celebrated for its versatility as a cross-country bike, excelling in technical terrain and climbs with a balance of agility and comfort. Its suspension and lightweight design are frequently praised, though some note the headtube angle and travel limitations. The bike is often compared to models like the Yeti SB95 and Santa Cruz Tallboy for its performance.

Pros
  • Capable on seriously technical terrain

  • Lightweight frame and efficient for XC racing

  • Good suspension settings with Fox’s CTD

  • Comfortable, balanced fit

  • Relentless agility on technical climbs

Cons
  • Steepish 70.6-degree headtube angle

  • Short feeling 100mm of travel

  • 40mm BB drop leads to clipped pedals

Key Quotes
This bike tears up technical climbs with a relentless agility, and is almost as remorseless on steep descents filled with rocks, roots and sizeable drops.
BIKE Magazine logoBIKE Magazine
It’s a very laterally stiff front end that, so long as you possess the strength to control it, will hold the intended line through whatever you hit.
Bikerumor logoBikerumor
SmoothLink suspension stays supple yet supportive through a wider range of gears than conventional single pivot or other four-bar suspension configurations
