Overview
About this bike
Give yourself a serious advantage on XC trails with Rocky Mountain's Vertex 970 RSL. Crafted from Rocky's C13 high-modulus carbon, the 990 absolutely devours trails with a press-fit bottom bracket that lays all your power down and a tapered head tube that corners with precision. In or out of the corners, bumps disappear under the big DT Swiss XR400 29-inch wheels aided by a 100mm RockShox SID XX fork with remote lockout. With a full SRAM XO 2x10 speed drivetrain and disc brakes, the Vertex shifts and brakes with pro-level efficiency. Plus, the Easton carbon handlebar and seatpost and Fizik saddle love all-out speed just as much as you do.
