Overview

About this bike

How about an XC bike that doesn't back down when you drop into some gnar? Rocky's Thunderbolt 750 delivers XC lightness with a hydroformed aluminum frame, then, things get interesting. Add a relatively slack head angle, 27.5-inch wheels, and 120mm of travel front and rear courtesy of Fox, and technical sections just got a lot easier. Go ahead, charge it — you're fully equipped to take the hard line with Shimano SLX/XT 2x10 gearing and brakes. Race Face is British Columbia-born and bred the same as Rocky Mountain, so of course the cranks, post and wide Evolve bars are exceptionally capable. Forget about backing down, get on with it.
