Rocky Mountain Flatline 1 Bike
Rocky Mountain Flatline 1 Bike
Rocky Mountain built the Flatline 1 Bike to withstand the biggest hits and roughest terrain. Because when you’re stepping up to a 40-foot gap, you don’t want anything less. Rocky Mountain picked every component for durability, so you’ll have to try pretty hard to break anything. Ultra-slack geometry lets you rip apart DH courses at full speed without worry of going over the bars.
- 180mm of travel to soak up huge drops and seriously rough terrain
- Low center of gravity to increase cornering performance
- Slack head angle for better stability at high speeds and over rocky sections
- LC2R suspension reduces pedal bob without compromising small-hit performance
Bottom Line: How big do you want to go?

I got the bike about a month ago it is great.The only thing I had to do is put more air in the tires and get a bigger spring other then that I love it.
Sexy Beast

Got the chance to demo this beast over the weekend and all I can say is wow. The design is so cool looking up close and the tubing of the frame is hydro formed to create this drop eating sexy beast. I threw it off a 5 ft loading dock to flat and it was like jumping off a sidewalk. Super smooth, very solid and very fun to ride. Ladies and gentleman sexy is back.
Change me.
