Rocky Mountain bikes are built by people who love to ride, for people who love to ride. Because they're passionate about riding each frame is hand built to ensure every step in the building process meets their standard of quality. Frame tubes are mitered individually to the most exacting tolerances. Each tube set is set in a size and platform specific custom jig and welded carefully by hand for the toughest, most perfectly aligned frame you can buy. They design and CNC their own frame components. They even hand buff, powder coat and mask frames individually by hand. All done in their factory in Vancouver to ensure the quality, durability, and performance. Yes, it takes more time and effort to build a bike this way. But if you love your bike, it's worth it.

For 2004 the new RMX with updated suspension system results in a long travel suspension bike that won't "sponge out" as you pedal. You get a plush ride that's nimble on the small bumps, yet still soaks up th big hits.
The all new Switch line features a completely new triangulated 4-bar linkage which offers 6" of rear travel with a lower leverage ratio for the most verstile bike park, drag & drop, ride up freeride experience there is.

100% pure all mountain. The beauty of the Slayer's long travel ride lies in the performance of its re-designed 3D Link system. With the Slayer's suspension, a new slightly higher pivot placement results in a slight amount of chain growth which optimises pedal stroke and keeps the rear wheel on the ground to eliminate suspension bob. Combine this with an Easton Custom OVAL RAD tube front end to support longer-travel forks, and you get all the front end strength of a freeride bike with Cross-Country performance. The ultimate go anywhere, do anything ride just got better!

The performance of ETSX is unique. The Travel of All-Mountain combined with the performance of a race bike. ETSX stands for Energy Transfer System, and it's been designed to be the most efficient XC suspension system. The main pivot location of the ETSX linkage is such that pedaling forces cause the rear wheel to dig into the ground for better traction. You get a faster ride over rougher terrain. ETSX suspension has 3 adjustments: Race 3.5", Epic 4.0" and All-Mountain 4.5".

The 3D Link is simplicity in design at its best. A complete redesign for 2004 to utilise bearings while increasing travel to 100mm. 3D Link frames are light and incredibly stiff for serious XC racing or the hard XC rider. The key to its design is that it doesn't rely on the shock as a structural component of the suspension. These cross country race bikes also benefit from their engineered pivot placement which optimises pedal stroke and eliminates suspension "bob". This results in less wasted rider energy and more power to the rear wheel. Whether it's an afternoon of ripping singletrack or hammering out a 24-hour relay, these bikes take you to the front. Enjoy.

The need for speed is satisfied on these bikes. Ridden in numerous World Cup, Norba and Canada Cup races, these bikes have cross-country racer written all over them. Our ST3 sloping top tube frame geometry increases standover height and provides for better maneuverability. Short stays and light frame materials help you to ascend like a billy goat, while the optimal cock-pit size gives you a comfortable position on all terrain. If you are ready to race, so are these bikes.
