From Backcountry
The Element Carbon 70 is Rocky Mountain's redesigned cross-country mountain bike, built around a lighter, pivotless rear end. Smoothlink SL replaces the previous generation's rear pivot with a flexstay design, cutting 350 grams from the frame while adding stiffness through the rear triangle. Fewer moving parts also cut down on maintenance points, and the frame doesn't sacrifice stiffness to get there. What Our GearheadĀ® Experts Are Saying:"I've pointed the Element into rock gardens where a race bike usually gets nervous, and it just tracks through instead of skipping off the top of the hits.
