A bike with lower gearing will be easier to ride up steep hills, while a higher top end means it will pedal faster down hills.

Samenvatting

The Rocky Mountain Element is a versatile cross-country bike that excels in both racing and endurance riding, offering a lightweight frame, efficient suspension, and a confidence-inspiring front end. While it's praised for its speed and handling, some reviewers noted issues with the rear suspension's progressiveness and pedal clearance. The bike stands out for its ability to tackle technical terrain without sacrificing its race-ready efficiency.

Pros
  • Lightweight frame and efficient suspension for XC racing

  • Versatile for both endurance races and technical terrain

  • Confidence-inspiring front end handling

  • Well-balanced suspension for comfort on long rides

  • Proprietary carbon manufacturing techniques enhance performance

Cons
  • Rear suspension can feel too progressive and less forgiving

  • 40mm BB drop may lead to clipped pedals

  • Weak internal cable stop

Key Quotes
This could be the weirdest cross-country bike ever.
