Does anyone know what's going on with the 2020 RM lineup?

Bike Changes?

Finally a new Slayer?

They updated the website today. Personally, I'm liking the look of that new Instinct.

New design coming... Probably some announcement coming. I have a 2018 Slayer and not a fan of the new design.

Just bought my "NC" edition C70 2 weeks ago, still gotta add my RideWrap but those new 2020 colors on bikes.com look pretty sick.

Was hoping for an updated version of the Instinct BC Edition.

I was told when l bought my C70 Instinct 2 weeks ago that the Maiden is discontinued so expect the Slayer to get longer travel and a possible BC edition.

Trailer was released today for the Slayer. It should be out in August.

I Demo'd an Instinct BC and it was an absolute beast. What's there to update?

I own one and love it. I'd love it even more if it had a reach of ~475mm in large. Personal preference I guess.

Talked to a rep at a demo, the 2020 Instinct is going to come with a Fox 36 and will have a HT angle that is 0.1 degree steeper than the BC edition (66 vs 65.9 I believe)

Yep, 2020 stuff is live on their website except the slayer and maybe the growler, haven't checked the growler.


To be clear I don't think the instinct needs and update, I just thought it funny that a previous commenter thought that a bike that was less than 2 years old should be next in the company's update lineup

New Slayers will come in both 27.5 and 29 versions. From what I understand, Wade's Pipedream from a couple of years ago was basically the prototype for the new design. The promo video made it sound like Halloween for the release but with Crankworx coming up, I would think that an opportune time.
