TECHNOLOGIES
FPS Kinematic
The unique suspension system with floating shock pivot with optimized characteristics for maximum sensitive function without a negative impact on efficient energy transfer
FSS DH Suspension
Suspension system with floating shock pivot modified especially for long travel and use in gravity disciplines.
Tapered HT
Tapered head tube with oversize lower headset bearings provides high rigidity of the frame for precise control and durability.
Hydroforming
Hydroforming technology is unique for its ability to distribute pressure applied to each frame tube irregularly, which enables our designers to shape every single tube of the frame exactly according to the desired material dimensioning.
Bi-Axial Tubing
Variable cross-section of down tube optimally distributes the load in the critically stressed areas and contributes to high strength and durability of the frame.
BSS Brakeless Seatstays
TAD Thru Axle Dropouts
Common placing the brakes onto seat-stays requires reinforcement, which adds weight. We place the brakes onto the chain-stays. The result is smoother and faster ride enabled by flattened seat-stays and saved weight.
Smart Link
Massive bottom bracket and chain-stays with down tube are designed for efficient transfer of energy from pedalling as well as precise and intuitive bike handling.
Sharkspine Tubing
Superlight carbon fibre fork provides great comfort by significant reduction of bumps from the road. The profile of its legs is shaped into a “drop” which minimizes the aerodynamic resistance of the bike at the same time.
142x12 thru axle is 35% stiffer than the classic open dropout. The result is super effective transfer of energy from pedals onto movement forward and precise steering.
The power from the yoke is transferred onto the shock through the Smart Link - the movement of the yoke and shock is more fluent and prevents undesired “locking” of shock in the last third of the travel.
The specific shape of the top tube of Rock Machine hardtails increases torsional stiffness while maintaining a high ability of vibration absorption.
DynaStay
S-shaped bending of seat stays provides vertical flexibility which absorbs vibration and radically improves riding comfort.
PTP Power Transfer Point
SL Road Carbon Fork
IPM Integrated PostMount
Brake caliper placed inside the rear triangle reduces the braking resonance and protects the brake from getting damaged by stones.
EXPAND YOUR LIMITS Narrow paths, rocky stretches, steep ascents and descents this is where Rock Machine bikes feel at home. The new Floating Pivot System combines the best desired frame properties: 1. T he rear-stays are connected to the main frame via two links that keep variable/floating position of the virtual center of rotation of the BB. The position keeps changing when the suspension is active, so that it is constantly in the optimum position. This makes the Floating Pivot Suspension sensitive to any changes in terrain, whilst overcoming ‘bobbing’, the unwanted shock travel when pedalling hard. Superstiff rear stays Floating pivot system enables the rear stays to form one single compact unit, delivering extremely high stiffness. This gives the bike impressive lateral stiffness and precise confident steering. TAD 142x12 (Thru Axle Dropout) 142x12 thru axle is 35% stiffer than the classic open dropout. The result is super effective transfer of energy from pedals onto movement forward and precise steering.
2. E xtremely stiff rear stays and no ‚bob‘ when accelerating makes the bike agile. 3. L inear link connection of yoke and extended shock guarantees that the suspension stays linear and sensitive. The setup of the suspension of the Rock Machine bikes will give you confidence even on the most challenging terrain. Rock Machine has everything you need for any all-mountain or enduro adventure. Smart Link The power from the yoke is transferred onto the shock through the Smart Link - the movement of the yoke and shock is more fluent and prevents undesired “locking” of the shock in the last third of the travel. Shock function is more effective and allows you to make the most of suspension exactly when you need it. Low leverage ratio Our kinematics uses an extended piston rod, which decreases the ratio between the rear wheel travel and the length of the piston rod. This enables you to ride with lower shock pressure, increasing the sensitivity of the rear suspension. Now your bike absorbs even small terrain bumps nicely. You can fully rely on your Rock Machine bike even when riding hard on downhills. Floating position of the main pivot The floating position of the main pivot guarantees that the suspension is totally disconnected from the effects of pedalling and braking forces. Our FPS system with virtual pivot makes riding steady and effective – high anti-squat parameter prevents the bike from “swinging” when pedalling hard and guarantees minimum pedal kickback. The result: fast acceleration and controlled swift riding even when going through rugged terrain.

29 VS. 27.5
THE ESSENCE OF TRAIL RIDING Big wheels in 29” and 27,5” (650B) diameter are the leitmotiv of the Rock Machine 2014 collection. Both sizes deliver the benefits of the big wheels - easier riding over rugged terrain, stable tracking, improved stability and increased inertia of wheels. A comfortable, smooth and confident ride is exactly what you get when riding a bike with 29” wheels. The perfect choice for anyone who loves to ride fast and with full control over your bike – uphill, on the flat and downhill too. Yet, many all-mountain and enduro riders love to hammer through sharp corners and twisting singletrack. To experience the ultimate flow they need a bike that is extremely playful, easy to handle and that responds immediately… Exactly the qualities that the Rock Machine 27.5” bikes offer. Our 27.5” models have all the advantages of big wheels, but with a bit more added spice on the tightest, twisting trails.
LIVE YOUR ADVENTURE Stiff, comfortable and durable. Rock Machine frames are designed with these attributes to achieve one simple goal: To maximize your adventures. No matter where you ride, our carbon frames provide great stiffness, comfort and excellent durability. With smart designed Dynastay seat-stays and big wheels, the frame significantly reduces the bumps. It is robust enough to withstand shocks from riding even through the
most rugged terrain, yet at the same time delivers super-fast acceleration. The oversized joint of down tube and bottom bracket ensures excellent power transfer and stable steering. Clever shaping of tubes, with variable thickness of tube walls enabled by carbon fibre technology, makes riding our bikes a real excitement.
Oversized headtube Shape of head tube is designed to maximize the connecting area of the down tube and makes the front part of frame distinctly stiff. Result? Confident and precise steering. You will have your bike under absolute control for every single second of your riding adventure. Biaxial down tube technology Dynamically shaped down tube respects load distribution, which makes the frame highly rigid in lateral direction adding to its overall strength and durability. The bike thus easily withstands and tolerates even huge shocks from the terrain. Power transfer point (PTP) Connection of bottom bracket with down tube and chain-stays is crucial for achieving of the utmost rigidity. This strong frame element provides the bike with efficient transfer of energy from pedalling and makes handling precise and intuitive. Dynastay seat-stays “S�-shaped seat-stays improve vertical flexibility and provide the bike with outstanding comfort. Good reasons for you to lengthen your ride and enjoy even more challenges.

XC PERFORMANCE SERIES
MEET THE SHARKSPINE Hydroforming technology is unique in its ability to distribute the pressure applied to each frame tube irregularly. This enables our designers to shape every single tube of the frame to the exact required dimensions. Frames produced using hydroforming are not only great looking, but deliver amazing performance too. Advanced technologies in the production process guarantee Rock Machine frames‘ lightness, stiffness and durability. Our duralumin series delivers all these qualities at a great price. A perfect balance of performance and value for money. All our MTB hardtails feature a special design formed by the top tube and seat-stays – the two elements connected into one single uniquely Shark spine shaped unit.
As well as having unique visual impact, this feature also vastly influences the ride qualities of both carbon and aluminium frames. The tubes’ shape increases the torsional stiffness of the bike, so that it accelerates amazingly and is also easy to handle. At the same time, the bending allows for higher flexion in the horizontal direction, which enhances the frame’s ability to absorb high-frequency vibrations, greatly improving ride comfort. Sounds simple? Well, the simplest solutions are quite often the most effective.

WOMAN SERIES
COMFORT & BEAUTY At Rock Machine we build the bikes so that they can exactly meet all of the specific requirements of every distinct user group. A good example of this is our ladies MTB series. Women have different body proportions and ergonomic demands, so their bikes need to be different compared to the typical models for men. This can‘t be just a change to the colour of the frame paint or stickers. We know just what is needed, so we pay close attention to the development of our MTB lady series. Safety, comfort, easy handling and, last but not the least, suitable geometry are the main criteria around which we build our women‘s collection.
1. Low Step Tubing Women have different proportions and needs compared to men. Top tube is lowered to minimize the stand over height, which makes riding much safer. Any time you need to jump off your bike (even when totally unexpected) you need not to worry about hitting the top tube. 2. Fast Tires Specially designed tires with low rolling resistance help to save energy and let you ride in comfort for longer. 3. Comfy saddle Special saddles are designed with respect to the specific requirements of women’s anatomy. 4. Ergonomic handlebars Ergonomic raised handlebars with optimized grips and reduced brake levers reach (to fit smaller palms) make riding more comfortable. 5. Sensitive suspension Sensitive air fork is perfect for lighter riders and comfortable suspension makes the riding less tiring and more fun.

The fast ride. Road bikes are irresistible to all who love to ride smooth and fast. Minimal aerodynamic resistance. Maximum transfer of power. Race-ready geometry. All these qualities make Rock Machine road bikes real racing machines. All you need to do is decide - Carbon or duraluminium? Ride fast! ...with style.
BBPF 30 Oversize press fit PF30 carbon bottom bracket with significantly wider diameter compared standard bottom brackets offers improved axial stiffness. Press fit PF30 BB transfers your power onto movement forward without any extra losses of energy. Inner cable routing Cleaner look, cleaner cables, longer life and less weight. Inner cable routing protects the cables from dirt, increases their lifetime. The result is easy long life of shifting with very little maintenance demands as well as improved look of the bike. Carbon Fork Carbon fork makes the bike lighter. The abilities of carbon material to absorb high-frequency shocks further result in much smoother and more comfortable rides compared to ordinary alloy forks; it also makes the steering more precise. Compact crankset Compact crankset offers wider range of gears. The best equipment for rides through hilly terrain with long and demanding climbs. Direct-mount front derailleur is mounted directly onto the frame. Direct-mount front derailleur provides easy mounting and adjustment. It impresses with accurate and easy shifting as well as lightweight.

ROAD SERIES
RIDING WITH STYLE Rock Machine road bikes are developed with two main goals - uncompromising performance and great comfort. They are based on stiff, lightweight frames with minimum aerodynamic resistance to make you feel confident whenever you set out for a ride. At the same time we have paid close attention to your riding comfort. Elements like flattened top tube or seat stays help to absorb vibration from uneven, rough surfaces and Brakeless seatstays The common mounting of brakes onto seat-stays requires frame reinforcement, which adds weight. We mount the brakes onto the chain-stays, resulting in smoother and faster ride enabled by flattened seat-stays and saved weight. Power transfer point Oversized bottom bracket, chain-stays and down tube junction forms a single robust, super stiff connecting point. The Power Transfer Point engineering solution is designed for efficient transfer of energy whilst keeping the low weight of the frame. Hidden rear brake Brake placed on the down side of the chain stays is hidden from the windflow and reduce the aerodynamic resistance.
contribute to a more comfortable ride. Rock Machine road bikes are built to be lightweight, but without any compromises when it comes to the most important qualities of the frame: durability, power transfer, comfort. We are proud to have developed and produced Rock Machine carbon frames with all these qualities at a price that makes them available to a wide range of cyclists.
Tapered headtube Tapered head tube with oversize lower headset bearings provides high rigidity of the frame for precise control and durability. Carbon fork Carbon fibre fork provides great comfort significantly reducing road vibration. The teardrop profile of its legs minimizes aerodynamic resistance at the same time.

TEENS & KIDS
TEENS & KIDS
You can‘t deny, it‘s in the genes! The Teens & Kids bikes in the Rock Machine family are just as wild, playful as their grown-up siblings. All our models for younger riders have been carefully developed with the focus on durability and high-quality. We focused on light weight and packing in loads of safety features ; both are absolutely critical for the Teens & Kids category of bikes. For every stooge, pixie and babe in Toyland!
Low weight We keep the weight of the complete bike low to make riding easier and safer for children.

ROCK MACHINE RACING
RIDERS WE SUPPORT At Rock Machine we are proud to support young riders who dare to take riding hard & wild, which is exactly what our bikes love. For the 2013 we started cooperation with BM riders - a Slovakian team of three elite riders Luboš Staňo, Sára Štepitová and Matej Vítko - plus a young Swedish DHi talent Adam Stålnäbb. All of them riders who focus on bikepark, downhill and enduro riding.
