Yesterday I got to take a look at the 2008 Rocky Mountain brochure and the new gamma looks awesome. One thing I noticed right away: NO MORE SWITCH (and no more RMX)! It’s gone and no tears of mine is gonna get it back. If you can get your hands on a 2007 Switch… get it, cherish it and never let it go! But take a look at the Flatline… and the Slayer SS…!
Flatline
You must have seen posts on this blog about the new downhill-prototype and slopestyle slayer and they’re responsible for the Switch and RMX now being out of work. The Flatline is the name of the downhillrig and it has 4 presets (if I’m remembering it all correctly). Depending on what kind of fork you install, you can fix the rear travel and geometry (steering angle up to 62,8°) to compliment the fork and balance your ride. These settings go from ± 6″ to ± 9″ travel.
Slayer SXC
The Slayer is available in two version, the SXC, much like the current SXC.
The SS: the Slayer Slopestyle.

Someone will get a Flow, I am sure! 😉
The new DH doesn’t really appeal to me (visually), but those Slayers have my mouth watering!
I’ve heard it looks awesome irl. But the Flow does appeal, hugely! And the slopestyle too 😉
That Slopestyle is veeeeery cool.
ill get a flow for sure!!!
