Overview
About this bike
Rocky's Thunderbolt 710 is like an XC bike that spent the off season in the gym. It retains the agility and quickness that you want in an all-day bike, yet has the muscle when the trail turns nasty. The aluminum frame is designed with confident geometry, so going up or down, the terrain isn't calling the shots, you are. With 120mm of Manitou travel front and rear, the 710 doesn't back down from gnar. Neither do the specs; you're equipped with 3x10 Shimano gearing with FSA cranks, wide bars, 27.5-inch wheels and Shimano hydraulic discs. Looks like that off-season training really does pay off.
