Team Freetard got their dirty hands on a set of exlusive new Rocky Mountain Altitude All Mountain Mountain Bicycles. These All Mountain Mountain Bikes preformed really well on the Mountains around Whistler Mountain.

The All Mountain preformance is demonstated here te hrough the lense of Matt Bowe, All Mountain Mountain Bicycle photographer. (All Mountain Mountain Bicycles not intended for the Black Diamond bicycling)

We tune the bicycles for maximum preformance and skills in magic.



Parking lot testing reveals high preformance in both skidding and wheelies. quoted while testing the 29" model, "IT FEELS LIKE IM WHEELYING THE EIFFEL TOWER."



Climbing preformance was exceptional, expecially when employing the Team Freetard triple threat hike-a-bike attack. They would have looked better on the chairlift or bike rack however.


The chainring on the 26" model did a good job of bouncing ATB over the rocks and moguls.


Almost at the summit.


Now on the way down.






During high speed and arial manuvers, even the strange 29er felt at home. The 26" models were a stable platform aswell.






Epic tree climb by Matt Bowe to capture the epicness of the Rocky Mountain All Mountain Mountain Bicycle at home in the Mountains.


"Super Steep Loam Section"


Downhill style cornering works good too!



Traditional techniques can still be employed even on the new and sophisticated bikes.


Perhaps the biggest suprise of the day was Marzocchi has made something that actually works, and works well.
