Rocky Element A30 Shimano Grey/Black, MD-29

New levels of climbing efficiency guarantee that oh-so-sweet feeling of riding someone off your wheel. Added levels of stability on fast descents and a pseudo-aggressive seat tube angle provide surprising levels of confidence on tight single track and hairy descents.

Light. Stiff. Fast. Smooth. Precise.
You’re now in your Element—always.
