Description: The ultimate cross-country race bike, the completely redesigned 2007 Element is the result of ten years of continuous innovation and improvement. The new Element's exceptional cross-country geometry guarantees a great fit, while the unique design of Rocky Mountain FORMTM tubing and carbon fiber seatstay provides race winning performance.
Since the design does not rely on the shock as a structural member of the frame, it is incredibly stiff laterally, creating a bike that tracks straight and looses nothing to flex.
The 3DLink rear suspension design, coupled with a custom-engineered Fox shock, results in a rising rate, fully active suspension system that directs all of the rider's energy into the drivetrain, and not back into the suspension.
Wider pivots and larger sized bearings increase the bike's lateral stiffness, while the engineered pivot placement optimizes pedaling efficiency and eliminates suspension bob for more power and traction to the rear wheel.
