The ultimate enduro weapon for demolishing the trails.

The Rocky Mountain Altitude is back again for 2023. It's a highly capable machine for enduro riding whether you're dominating the mountains and trails with your friends, or you're taking part in a local or national race.

The Altitude offers many innovative, high-tech features. Size-specific tuning ensures every rider gets the same handling and performance, no matter their height. Use the RIDE-9 adjustment system and 2-position rear axle to adjust your geometry on the go for total control.

You can have an alloy or carbon build with a small, medium, or large frame, and 27.5" or 29" wheels. The 2023 Rocky Mountain Race Face Enduro team will be riding this bike for the 2023 Enduro World Series. So you should own it, too!
