Product Description

Some people reflect on the hardtail like some relic from years past. Little do they know itAAAs still alive, and kicking the crap out of all but the most razor-sharp full-suspension XC bikes. Want proof? Check out Rocky MountainAAAs Vertex RSL 50 XC. With a superlight carbon frame, the Vertex RSL 50 XC achieves elevation gains with the ease of a fighter jet and soaks up washboard descents at any speed. Of course, thereAAAs always a catchAAA in this case, getting stuck behind plump full-suspension left-lane-losers with their turn signals obliviously blinking. Sure some will argue that they can AAAslayAAA the downhill with their killer four inches of travel, but really, these are flowy cross-country trails. In the right hands, a hardtail is untouchable. Just check the lineup at the next pro XC race for reassurance, and start practicing AAAon your right!AAA to avoid any undue stress to your vocal cords.
