Trail bikes are best described as a bike that can do it all. They are perfect for climbing steep hills and descending technical terrain with ease. The Rocky Mountain Instinct has a FORM Alloy frame that uses 160mm of travel on the front and 145mm of travel on the rear. The frame features RIDE-4 adjustable geometry so you can dial in your ride for the terrain you ride on. The frame also comes with 2-bolt ISCG-05 tabs, internal cable routing, and integrated frame protection.
The A30 version of the Rocky Mountain Instinct comes with a Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain. This includes a cassette that has a hill-crushing 10-51T gear range that makes climbing and pedaling through difficult terrain much easier. Tektro HD-M535 4-Piston hydraulic disc brakes provide reliable stopping power so you can descend under control. Rocky Mountain TR30 Tubeless rims are paired with Maxxis Minion tires. The rims can be set up tubeless with the proper tires for a smoother ride, better traction, and fewer flats.
