Rocky Mountain Element Carbon 50
Details
From stage wins and multi-day rides to the top step of the BC Bike Race, Element is the result of over two decades at the front of the pack. The Element features efficient suspension performance, refined geometry, RIDE-9 adjustability, and room for two bottles inside the front triangle. The smallest details were examined in the search of weight savings, point-n-shoot rigidity, and unrivaled speed. Be in your Element.
- SMOOTHWALL Carbon 100mm travel frame
- Fox 34 Step Cast Float Performance 120mm fork
- Shimano XT/SLX 12-speed drivetrain
- Shimano SLX 2-Piston brakes
- Race Face Aeffect R Dropper seatpost
A dropper seatpost allows you to quickly lower and raise your seat to give you an ideal riding position. Dropping your seat creates a lower center of gravity for better control and maneuverability on steep descents, while raising it puts you at normal riding height for efficient pedaling.
Construction can include either hydraulic- or cable-actuated systems and the post’s travel can either be infinitely adjustable or stopped at set intervals, depending on the model.
Dropper seatposts come in standard lengths and diameters and vary by the amount of travel.
