Overview
About this bike
Trust your Instinct. Stable and aggressive, the Instinct is Rocky Mountain's most versatile trail bike. Sporting 140mm of rear travel, this aluminum trail machine features Rocky Mountain's Ride-9 system to tailor the suspension and geometry to suit the day's adventure, giving you the ability to rip through miles of buff singletrack and charge down sketchy lines with confidence. Aiding your capabilities are Fox's 34 Float Performance fork, Float DPS EVOL Performance shock, and Maxxis Minion DHR II tires to keep you chasing deftly in fun's track. The always reliable SRAM GX drivetrain puts slick shifting at the ready. Powerful SRAM Level T hydraulic discs keep you solidly in control, a Race Face dropper post puts you in the ideal position on the the way down, and an outstanding mix of WTB and Rocky Mountain components finish the cockpit for strength and durability, day in and day out.
