It's made up of premium workhorse level components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFox Performance Elite suspension, Shimano XT drivetrain and aggressive Maxxis tyres. This is a serious machine for riders who demand precision and durability on demanding trails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is the Altitude Carbon 70 for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Altitude is an Enduro mountain bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs such it's for riders who are comfortable going fast over steep, raw and technical trails. And those who are building up to or confident with big features such as jumps and drop-offs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps you're currently riding an older shorter travel bike (like a Trail bike) and you're pushing it to the limit. The suspension is working harder, brakes overheat and the bike feels creaky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOr:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou might be spending most of your time on gentler trails with trips to the high country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour preference is an efficient Enduro bike that can handle your regular trails but is also capable of riding steeper trails when it's time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePremium Smoothwall™ Carbon Frame\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRocky Mountain’s Smoothwall™ carbon is one of the best in the industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's called Smoothwall because it has no imperfections on the inside of the frame such as excess resin or bubbles. It's completely smooth on the inside walls of the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone can produce a carbon frame that looks nice on the outside. But few can do the same for the inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRocky's carbon is designed for high stiffness, impact strength and responsive handling.\u003cbr\u003eEach pivot location uses fully sealed bearings. More importantly the bearing sizes are a common size and easy to source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Enduro Max bearings ensure long-term durability. While tube-in-tube internal cable routing makes maintenance at home so much easier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRide-9 Adjustable Geometry\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adjustable RIDE-9™ geometry system allows riders to fine-tune handling characteristics.\u003cbr\u003eRide-9 lets you choose between a more playful setup or a stable, aggressive descending position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's 9 different positions for the frame. Each position gives you a certain feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor example:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePosition 1 transforms the Altitude C70 into full downhill mode. In this position, the Altitude is in its lowest and longest position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis makes the Altitude extremely stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePosition 9 is at the other end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt lifts the bike higher and rotates it forward. This makes all the angles 'steeper'. And steeper angles (such as the head tube\/steering angle) makes the Altitude more responsive at a low speeds (like climbing).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePosition 5 is Neutral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's the mid-point between being super stable and responsive. And it's the position the C70 comes in when you buy it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFox Performance Elite\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-block-id=\"ba5d3657-6d0d-42f2-840e-f72d1e8eeaa4\" data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003ePremium Fox suspension keeps the Altitude C70 composed over rough trails..\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-block-id=\"5c1cd5da-b5b3-49c0-b368-eebb13d3fb32\"\u003eThe Fox 38 Performance Elite fork delivers 170mm of travel.
