For the days we still want to cover some distance but need a little more travel for side hits and technical descents, the Rocky Mountain Element puts us in our element.

Rocky Mountain slapped the Element with size-specific tunes for optimal performance across all sizes, and revised suspension kinematics with a more linear progression. Rocky Mountain’s Ride-4 adjustment system gives us four different settings that allow us to adjust our frame geometry to our riding style and the terrain for more capability.
