Description LC2R

The Low Centre Counter Rotating - LC2R - patented suspension is a laterally stiff design that offers a highly predictable ride in all conditions. Its low sprung weight and concentrated suspension mass allow the LC2R suspension to respond faster to ground forces, such as stutter bumps, and keep the rear wheel glued to the ground during
acceleration.

LC2R suspension is a single pivot design, with the main pivot located just above and behind the bottom bracket. Both chain and brake
forces are concentric to this pivot through-out the suspension travel, which eliminates pedal "bob" and brake jack. A thrust/ tug link engages the top link to create a rising rate suspension and the much-sought-after "infinite travel" feel. We tune LC2R to create an optimal suspension rate for different types of riding - from super cross country to Freeride and to downhill.

SLAYER SS

• LC2R suspension rate is tuned to Slopestyle and bike park riding • Low centre of gravity makes the bike stable and quick handling • Counter rotating top link creates a predictable ride in extreme conditions. • Compact LC2R suspension design eases the ride through bumpy and rough terrain. • Single pivot design creates predictable suspension ride and feel.

FORM Technology

The heart of a bike is its frame. The geometry, the material, the feel, and the way it reacts under the rider are the very essence of the ride. That's why we've introduced FORMTM - the design and manufacturing process of our high-performance frame tubing. Our philosophy behind FORMTM tubing is to push the limits of tube and frame design to create the frame's unique riding feel.

Engineered Ride Quality : FORMTM tubing is a line of high-performance tubes designed to elevate the superior ride quality for which Rocky Mountain Bicycles are known. Innovative design: With 25 years of innovation, we continue to push the boundaries of bicycle design. FORMTM tubing is the exciting new frontier of our creativity.

Attention to detail: Every detail in a FORMTM tube set is carefully engineered and has a
purpose: from the slightest variations in shape, to wall thickness, tapers, flares and bends.

Uncompromised quality: FORMTM tube sets are manufactured with premium materials and delivered by the best suppliers in the industry to meet Rocky Mountain's strict requirements.
