Thanks for the comments lads, size wise the bike is a Rocky Large 18' they are on the smaller size geometry so would suit any one around the 5'10' or 178cm mark. OCD'R yeah Mel and I ride for the same shop iRide bikes, we are very very lucky Ross is a god bloke and doesn't upset too many people so we get looked after very well by distributors. Art Vanderly, if your ever around come say G'day, more than happy to let good folk to take her for a spin.

Another Rocky!

Another Rocky to add to the others that have been posted, its similar to the Elements in design, linkage etc, but has the same adjustable suspension as the Altitude. Anyways its a RM Instinct 970, its really adjustable and coming from a RM Slayer I reckon its awesome.

Bit more trail friendly then the Element its bordering on AM with 140mm of travel I guess but yeah love the adjustable BB, HA and Suspension rates on it!

Has remote CTD Lever on the bars for the rear shock which is really handy I find, mostly XT and Raceface turbine spec.

That's a really nice 29er Quiggs. I love the Rockies mate, and they have their handling very well sorted. I wouldn't bother with the HT on a 24 hour. The slight advantage in zippiness will be offset by the accumulated fatique. And your dually has a lockout!

Cammas, yeah mate stealth dropper post (reverb), it certainly gets people comming in for a closer look as they arent really sure what it is.

Jathannas, your spot on about the geo! The Instinct in its semi slacker setting feels just as capable as what my Slayer did on decents, coming from tubed 26 to tubless 29er is such a big change! I dont know how anyone would pay them out once riding a 29er, so much more grip too!

Good choice Softek.

I've loved mine for the last year, a really awesome machine. Plenty of flex in the rear and a very nice fork. I am happy with the XO brakes however, as long as they get serviced.

Enjoy!
