For over 40 years, Rocky Mountain has been utilising their love for mountain biking to design and produce top-of-the-line bikes in the North Shore Vancouver mountains.
Rocky Mountain was started by Grayson Bain, Jacob Heilbron, and Sam Mak. They made the first fat tyre bike in Canada, called the Sherpa. Alison Sydor won Canada's first World Cup on a Rocky Mountain bicycle, adding to the brand's list of achievements.
If you want a bike for off-road trails and steep climbs, a mountain bike is the best choice. It is perfect for adventure, exercise, or sport.
With a mountain bike, there are two choices to choose from – hardtail
and full sus. A Hardtail bike has suspension only at the front, making
it easier for the rider to climb and pedal efficiently.
The full
suspension bike has suspension in the front and back. This helps riders
go faster. It also helps them feel more confident on rough terrain.
These bicycles offer speed and efficiency, with two
different options to choose from: the Element and the Thunderbolt. The
element excels at short track racing, providing the rider with high
speed. On the other hand, for those who would like a trail bike in the
XC range, the thunderbolt would be more suitable. This bicycle travels
up technical climbs with ease; empowering you to tackle the trails
you’ve always wanted to.

If you’re searching for a versatile bicycle to tackle the
difficult climbs on technical trails, the Trail range has a wide
selection of all terrain bicycles to choose from.
If versatility
is your primary goal, the Instinct variant provides a stable yet
aggressive ride on off-road trails. The next-generation features
included in this model noticeably increase pedalling efficiency. With
larger tyres and stiffer wheels, this bike is ready to tackle mountain
trails.
If you want an electric mountain bike, the Altitude
Powerplay could be the perfect option for you. The bike has great
handling, as expected from a top manufacturer like Rocky Mountain. It
feels like a proper mountain bike, with toque, low centre of gravity,
and a fully optimised suspension; however, the electric assistance
provides a powerful drive to your biking experience. Ideal for people
who need a helping hand on the trail, but still want to enjoy the
mountain biking experience.
Fat bikes are ideal for off-season biking. The fat tyre bicycle offers outstanding grip on snow and various other terrains. This renders them perfect for winter mountain biking in challenging conditions. The Suzi Q model provides the user with two choices of fat wheels, 27.5 Fat and 29+. This makes the bicycle ideal for users who want to race fat bikes, or riders who want to enjoy local single-track loops.
The Suzi Q is a Rocky Mountain bike, so you can expect high quality from
this expert mountain bike manufacturer. The Suzi Q fat bike is better
than traditional bikes. It offers a more comfortable ride. This is due
to its compact chain stay and extended reach for the rider.
Numerous professional bikers choose to ride rocky mountain bikes. One such individual is the self-proclaimed big mountain rider, Thomas Vanderham. For over 10 years he has been a mainstay in freeride mountain biking; placing in the top ten every Red Bull Rampage every held!
