Résumé
The Rocky Mountain Slayer is a robust enduro bike designed for gnarly descents, offering a mix of high-speed stability and comfortable climbing. Its adjustable geometry and suspension cater to a wide range of riding styles, though some reviews note inconsistencies in suspension performance and spec choices. The bike excels in steep, technical terrain but may require tuning for optimal performance.
Strong, slack geometry for descents
Adjustable geometry and suspension
Good traction and stability
In-frame storage and size-specific tuning
Capable of running mixed wheel sizes
Inconsistent suspension performance
Some spec flaws and noise issues
Requires tuning for optimal performance
Higher price point compared to competitors
It is strong, slack, and has plenty of travel for thrashing gnarly descents, yet the new Slayer can still comfortably climb for its downhill reward.
BikerumorThe new Slayer failed to live up to our high expectations, which is rather unusual for a fine bike brand like Rocky Mountain.
Enduro Mountainbike MagazineThe Slayer is a bike that loves to eat, and if you can’t feed it a steady diet of turbo-gnar, it’s not the right dinner companion.

It was designed to be versatile and ready to tackle the most intense of trails and with the biggest jumps known to humankind.

The Slayer's handling slots into what I'd call the 'classic freeride' category... it feels most at home on steeper, natural trails.
Geometry works well in steep terrain
Good range of effective geometry adjustments
Plenty of room for tool and snack storage in the frame
Swapping shock springs is a time-consuming process
More plush than precise - can get bogged down on chunkier trails
Mixed-wheel setup requires purchasing a different shock link on larger sizes

This summer, I had the pleasure of testing the Rocky Mountain Slayer Carbon 50, a beast of a bike designed for tackling especially challenging terrain. Despite riding a few new trails in dry and loose conditions, the Slayer felt like the perfect bike to push limits and gave me the courage to hit features I might have previously shied away from. The Slayer C50 features Rocky Mountain Bicycles' RIDE-4 geometry adjustment system, which allows riders to adjust the bike's geometry in slacker and steeper settings to suit the terrain they are slaying. I've been enjoying the front-end control and climbing comfort of slightly steeper bikes in recent months, so I set the geometry in the number-four position—the steepest setting—during my test rides. While throwing around a generous 180 millimeters of suspension travel in the front and rear, the Slayer surprised me with its remarkable climbing prowess. The medium size tested came equipped with a mixed-wheel setup. Featuring a 29-inch wheel in the front and a 27.5-inch wheel out back, the bike delivered excellent power transfer and traction. Even with the rear tire sporting a Double Down casing and Cush Core tire insert, it retained an efficient feeling. The steep seat tube angle of nearly 78 degrees ensures an efficient pedaling position, pushing the rider’s weight forward to keep weight distribution centered while cranking up steep climbs. The active Fox DHX2 Performance Elite rear coil is a welcome addition too as it generated extra grip over roots and rocks.

Rocky Mountain pulls no punches with the meanest Slayer yet.
Full carbon frameset trims weight
Adjustable geometry via Ride-4 chip and adjustable chainstay length
In-frame storage (PenaltyBox) with magnetic latch
Excellent tire spec: Assegai MaxxGrip DD front, Minion DHR II MaxxTerra DD rear across models
CushCore XC inserts pre-installed on Carbon models
SLX brakes provide excellent power and modulation
Stable and capable geometry for charging steep terrain
Stock suspension (Fox Performance) undergunned for aggressive riding
DHX2 shock undersprung and underdamped for heavier/aggressive riders (e.g., 190 lb rider needed 550 lb spring and rebound adjuster fully closed)
Stock rebound tune on shock too fast even with heavier spring
Fox 38 GRIP damper lacks composure compared to GRIP2
Slayer is heavy (just under 38 lbs for size large Carbon 50)
Not suitable for tight/twisty trails; prefers fast, rough terrain

Dubbed the ultimate big-mountain bike, the latest iteration of the Rocky Mountain Slayer is an ultra-capable long-travel trail tamer—as long as that trail is sufficiently steep and technical.
déc. 2019 · Hurricanejoel
Agile, playful yet very capable, the latest generation Slayer makes a strong case for the single-bike quiver.
