Features and technologies

Dyname 4.0

Dyname™ 4.0

Dyname™ 4.0, only available on Powerplay, is incredibly powerful and is truly a leader among e-bike motors. We designed the power curve within the software to deliver the 108Nm smoothly, allowing you as the rider to soft pedal around tight switchbacks or drop the hammer through a chunky, punchy, portion of trail.

FORM™ Alloy

FORM™ tubesets utilize premium materials to meet our strict requirements. Each FORM™ tube that we create is engineered for its specific purpose within the frame, ensuring optimized strength, weight, and ride quality.

Size Specific Tune

Size Specific Tune ensures that riders of all sizes get the right balance of small-bump compliance, mid-stroke support, and end-stroke progressiveness. Our design team does custom shock tunes based on real world field testing, and adjusts each tune for specific frame sizes.

Two-position axle

The two-position axle allows the rider to choose a short or long rear-center length that suits their personal preferences.

RIDE-4™ adjustment system

The RIDE-4 adjustment system allows riders to quickly fine-tune their geometry with a single Allen key. Four configurations are possible thanks to one rotating chip.

2024 Altitude A70

Negatives:

At first I was super excited to get this bike. All the hype from YouTube vids that this bikes motor is so much better than the competitions which is not true. Any bike with a Bosch motor will beat this bike. First couple of rides I got overheating codes and other codes while my buddies where flying past me on there 85nm Bosch motor bikes. Same thing as everyone else is saying. Apparently I needed to up my cadence between 80-120 which is ridiculously over exerting yourself on a 5km climb.

Why would they put a deore cassette and chain on a full XT setup?? The cassette and chain were fully worn out before 500kms. I’ve since upgraded to XT chain and cassette on my brand new bike. Super frustrating I had to spend another $300 on a 10K bike. When I changed the chain. I had the bike laying on its side with the chain cover off. I stood the bike up and the retainer for the motor gear fell off. Not even attached with one thread. Fell off!! My first Rocky Mountain experience was amazing with the vertex back in the 90’s. Different bikes since then. My second experience isn’t great so far.

Positves:

The slacked out geometry and handling is awesome!

New XT cassette and chain shift really well. Hopefully will last way longer. (Buy a chain checker) otherwise expect to change your chain after 200kms on the deore setup.

Comes with cushcore.

Jumbotron and controls are easy and work great.

The OT battery with the 720wh battery will outlast any other e-bike.

Suspension once…

Altitudine powerplay

J buy this bike in Bassano Moretti Italy .in novembre 2023 . J find this probem :

1 too noise

2 to much rates (80_90) to reach maximum Power 108 nm .

3 j think that you have to change this parameter to give everyone the possibility of riding with this e-bike also old people like me 70 yo , j like Mountain but j Need like others ,to do less efforts when driving in hard thail

Great Bike! Motor can be finicky at times

Had it for nearly a year now. Upgraded to factory fork and coil dhx2 on rear, atlas pedals, and various others. Also just swapped the 29” rear wheel using MX mount and trying out the mullet setup. Getting some faster splits on the mullet but not feeling too different other than a bit lower to the ground by like 5mm. All in all a great bike and I woulda given it 5 stars if the motor just wasn’t a touch finicky at times. Every time it just needed turned off and then turned back on but enough to give you a bit of a ‘gulp’ out on the trail. Tech help via the web is outstanding.

FANTASTIC BIKE!!!

I arrive from the Powerplay Altitude 2020, and I must say that I liked it so much that I decided to purchase the 2022 model. Improved in many things, a great bike, it really performs!

I made some upgrades, such as the ZEB ULTIMATE fork, OHLINS shock absorber, and two-tone tires.

If you're looking for an aggressive and agile enduro bike, this is for you!
