Algupära
The Altitude has been Rocky Mountain's enduro weapon since 2003, but the 2024 model marked a full rethink. The LC2R rear suspension — an idea dusted off from the 2006 Slayer — locates the shock low in the frame, changing the kinematics from the ground up: a high 3-to-1 ratio at the start of travel absorbs chatter, a linear mid-stroke feels supportive on longer compressions, and the final 25mm progressively soaks up big hits. Carbon builds carry PenaltyBox 2.0 — in-frame storage that fits a tool roll and hides an AirTag inside the door.

Tehnilised andmed
- Raam
- Carbon (SMOOTHWALL) or FORM 6061 alloy; BSA 73mm threaded BB; 12x148mm rear axle; RIDE-4 geometry chip (4 positions) + 10mm chainstay flip chip at dropout — 8 total geometry configurations
- Kahvel
- 170mm travel; Fox 36/38 or RockShox Zeb/Domain depending on build tier; 37mm offset
- Jõuülekanne
- 1x12 SRAM Eagle or Shimano Deore depending on build; range C70–Alloy 30 ($3,999–$7,799)
- Pidurid
- Hydraulic disc (brand/spec varies by build)
- Rattad
- 29" standard (SM uses 27.5"; MD/LG/XL can run full 29" or MX mullet via lower-link flip); tubeless-ready
- Vedrustus
- LC2R (Low Centre Counter-Rotating) four-bar rear suspension, 160mm travel; shock mounted low in the frame for reduced centre of gravity; high initial 3-to-1 leverage ratio then linear mid-stroke, progressive in final 25mm
- Geomeetria
- Size L neutral: head angle 63.5°, reach 480mm, stack 639mm, chainstay 450mm, seat angle 77–77.8°; RIDE-4 adjusts head angle ±0.4° and BB height

Verdikt
+Tugevused
- LC2R suspension delivers genuinely supportive mid-stroke with progressive bottom-out protection
- RIDE-4 + chainstay chip offer 8 geometry configurations for course/condition tuning
- PenaltyBox 2.0 carbon storage is clever: tool + tracker in one sealed compartment
−Nõrkused
- Complex adjustability can be overwhelming for casual riders
- Carbon builds command significant premium over alloy
- SM frame is 27.5" only — limits upgrade path for small riders who want 29"
