Rocky Mountain Instinct C50 2024 Bike (Brown/Yellow)

All-mountain bikes are great at many things. From steep climbs to fast and fun descents, these bikes are capable of conquering a wide variety of trail obstacles with ease. The Rocky Mountain Instinct C50 Shimano Bike is what many would call a "quiver killer" and is designed to thrive on technical trails. The SMOOTHWALL Carbon Frame uses 140mm of travel on the rear and 150mm of travel on the front. Smoothlink suspension aims to provide maximum traction and comfort in all situations and features a tuned blend of anti-squat and rate curves that is efficient yet supple. The PenaltyBox 2.0 downtube storage is capable of holding a water bottle with an installed cage and can hold many of your essentials. The frame also features RIDE-4 adjustable geometry, a two-position axle, a size-specific tune, internal cable routing, and integrated frame protection.

 

The C50 version of the Rocky Mountain Instinct comes with a Shimano XT 12-speed drivetrain. With a 32T chainring up front and a 10-51T cassette on the rear, you'll have no issues climbing steep hills or pedaling through difficult terrain. Shimano MT6120 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes provide excellent stopping power so you can descend with confidence. WTB ST Light i30 TCS 2.0 tubeless rims are paired with Maxxis Dissector tires that can be set up tubeless for a smoother ride, better traction, and fewer flats. With the X-Fusion Manic Alloy Dropper Post, you'll be able to quickly lift and lower your saddle with the press of a lever so you can climb efficiently or descend with a lower center of gravity.
