![]() ![]() Rocky Mountain rely on robust components for uncompromised trail performance. Ready, shreddy, go! The performance-oriented spec of the Rocky Mountain Altitude Powerplay Carbon 70 Power is nothing without control – only experienced riders will be able to fully exploit the 108 Nm torque. Although a mini thru-axle holds the battery in place, it rattles loudly inside the frame. The long 720 Wh battery is integrated into the slim down tube right in front of the motor and slides out from the bottom of the down tube. However, the motor system can’t be connected to a smartphone. The big monochrome display integrated into the top tube can be used to fine-tune the motor characteristics. This allows Rocky Mountain to use a high pivot suspension design. The motor is integrated into the frame triangle just above the bottom bracket and transfers its power directly to the chain via a small jockey wheel. Particularly striking is the Dyname 4.0 motor developed in-house by Rocky Mountain, which churns out a whopping 108 Nm torque and is the most powerful motor in the entire test field. Subtract this from the 120 kg maximum permissible weight, and a fully geared-up rider weighing more than 95 kg is already too heavy for the Altitude. The elegant carbon frame is combined with an alloy swingarm. The Altitude Powerplay C70 lacks neither motor power nor character! Rocky Mountain’s powerhouse retails at € 8,800, rolls on 29” wheels and generates 170/160 mm travel at the front and rear, respectively.
