2012 SLAYER The Holy Grail of mountain bikes might just be a 165mm travel all mountain bike that climbs like a cross country bike. If it is, then look no further than Slayer. Never has a bike with this much travel pedaled so well and never has such an efficient climbing bike descended so well. With Rocky Mountain pioneered StraightUp™ geometry featuring its 75 degree seat angle, the rider is always in the perfect pedaling position for maximum power on the climbs. With its 66.5 degree head tube angle and bottomless SmoothLink™ Suspension, nothing gets in Slayer’s way when things get gnarly. STRAIGHT-UP GEOMETRY Never has an all-mountain bike climbed this well thanks to Slayer’s 75 degree seat tube angle. SMOOTHLINK™ SUSPENSION Our proven and patented SmoothLink™ suspension system sets the standard for pedaling efficiency.

SHIMANO E-THRU 142 X 12MM REAR AXLE Shimano’s new rear axle system addresses the shortcomings of traditional through axle systems. Hub end caps self-align into machined grooves in the dropouts. No more struggling to align the hub perfectly in the frame to insert the axle. E-Thru does it for you. E-TYPE FRONT DERAILLEUR By using an E-Type front derailleur mounted on the chainstay, we were able to produce the lightest and stiffest chainstay possible. By reducing the size of the envelope the chain moves in, the E-type system provides more accurate shifting performance. Mounted on the front derailleur is a custom anti chain-drop plate which makes a jammed chain a thing of the past. ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT SEATPOST CABLE ROUTING

Because riding full seat height on gnarly terrain can be a scary proposition, we included cable guides for adjustable height seatposts.
