uh oh OMG!

P.O.S

ps... the linkage gouges the frame every time you compress it.. maybe they changed that but it always happend to the 08's

what do you mean?

gouges on the chain stays.. see that black linkage attached to the seat stay and the chain stays... when the rear shock compresses it gouges at it since theres a bit of play to it when your cornering or landing sideways. i have a bunch of friends with these gouges

^^fail.

yah are you joking kid....how does this look like a demo? (that would be the comparable bike model)

What? look at the front triangle! The swooping tubes started with the demo, then Kona, and Norco followed and now Rocky

The same happened to me!!
This one is just orgasmic!!

hahaha! true! i like this odd looking frame! when it grown on u its a good looking bike!

ya i would like to know 2 http://s1.pinkbike.com/2/i/icon_smile.gif

The final weight is "a lot". I have complete bike weight from my own scale, as well as a frame only number because I just had to strip it down to see. You'll find exactly how much soon enough in the preview article.

cool can't wait

do you like the bike.i think its a very nice looking machine. wonder how it rides

46lbs

That's ridiculous... my Banshee Scream is 47.8 lbs and it's got Mag30's 2.6" Gazzaloddi's, Shiver DC... you're telling me this frame is around the 13.5 lb mark? At least it's gonna be strong at that weight.

dude it owns all the other companys bike for that price range

cool, thanks a lot

im changing the fork to a boxxer, azonic wheels, chromag bar, straitline pedals with ti axels, ti bolt kit, sdg seat/post combo, maxxis minion 2.5F front and rear. and im talking to the rocky rep about rawing the frame w/o voiding warrenty.

i agree it looks/sounds like a lead huckwagon

omg you ride f*cking kona....dont even try to diss a rocky

regardless of what bike he rides, i have to agree that this rm looks abit tacky!
is the credit crunch biting rm designers too?

don't get me wrong the old rockies i love, the RM7/9/X's were damn cool looking machines, but this ones is all fat and curvy and bent, it's like they've moved from a good looking design to a childs design who can't keep a straigh hand. i've no doubt they've improved geometry etc as the design has evolved, and from a riding point of view it is bound to have built on the strengths of the past models, but from a looks point of view it's not nice.
and i never claimed my kona's to be the best looking bike either, i know they're not. but at least they have one or two straight lines and don't look like they've been ridden head on into a tree and bent.

the forks through off the whole design of the bike....throw some totems on that bitch

prolly a small

thanks

no problem man. i ride a small and im a bit taller then you. i love it
