Overview

Intended use: Cross country

Rear travel: 130

Description

Purpose-built to hit the precise sweet spot between lightweight cross country climbing prowess and technical precision, the Element is the best of both worlds and more. New-levels of climbing efficiency guarantees that oh-so-sweet feeling of riding someone off your wheel. Added levels of stability on fast descents and a pseudo-aggressive seat tube angle provides surprising levels of confidence on tight single track and hairy descents. Light. Stiff. Fast. Smooth. Precise. You’re now in your Element—always.

Solid, Stable and Fun

I'm almost 57, 6'5", 205lbs. The XL size feels great with a swap to 40mm rise handlebars and a seat with more padding for my aging backside. I wanted a bike that climbed well, handled well, and decended trails with stability and confidence. Moving on from a 6 year old trail bike with 27.5 wheels and I'm happy to be back on 29r's. I don't do drops or crazy stuff so the suspension travel is just fine for me. This bike climbs better/easier yet it handles really well on speedy descents - don't feel like I had to make any compromize. Nice job Rocky Mountain

Problem

I love this bike. It’s really beautiful. But I keep having the same problem. Whether the rear derailleur is engaged or not, the chain keeps hitting the rear frame… I’m frustrated by it. Otherwise, riding this bike is great.
