Rocky Mountain Element 70RSL Carbon 650b

She is finally complete!

Two years of saving and waiting for the right components I finally build the perfect all day singletrack warrior for South African conditions - 10.9kg, dropper post, 120/100mm travel, 650b, carbon beauty!

 

Almost too low BB height in the 26" version of this bike, makes this puppy a cracker when converted to 650b! Running 120mm travel front and 100mm rear changes the head angle enough. Combined with a wheelbase of only 1062mm makes this bike extremely nimble, and ready to attack most singletracks in South Africa. And you have to get custom rim and fork decals... :clap:
