Rocky Mountain Introduces the Limited Edition Instinct Carbon 99

Introducing the Instinct Carbon 99, a custom trail bike built up with the highest-end components available. With build highlights like a complete SRAM AXS drivetrain and RockShox suspension and AXS seat post, Race Face’s Next R31 carbon wheels, and our own RIDE-9 adjustment system, this bike is truly special. There are only 20 Instinct Carbon 99’s in existence meaning no matter where you ride, this bike will be the talk of the trail.

This bike is all about standing out from the crowd. By only making a limited number of Instinct Carbon 99's, the custom paint job will always be unique and celebrated by Rocky Mountain fans.

Over the years, we've reserved the "99" naming scheme for our highest end builds. The Instinct Carbon 99 is an absolute dream build and we're excited to bring it to reality.

It was decided that a unique C99 build was order for the Instinct platform. We consider the Instinct to be the most versatile platform in our lineup, making it the perfect candidate for a C99 build. 29", 150mm of travel up front and 140mm in the rear the Instinct C99 was built to ride anything from the wet and gloomy North Shore to the Utah desert and everything in between.

SRAM Eagle AXS

We went with electronic shifting because it’s proven to perform flawlessly in all conditions and temperatures. The new XX1 Eagle AXS from SRAM requires very little maintenance, is simple to install, and provides incredible performance from a wireless shifting system.

RockShox Ultimate Suspension and AXS Reverb

It's right there in the name - Ultimate. RockShox Pike and Debonair Super Deluxe Ultimate RCT were the suspension of choice for the Instinct C99. For the dropper post we went with the matching Reverb AXS to keep the cockpit tidy and uncluttered.

Race Face Next R Wheelset and Cockpit

Starting under the same roof back in 1993, Race Face components were birthed out of the necessity for burlier components. That mandate still exist today and that's why the Next R wheelset and components were chosen. They're race proven by the Rocky Mountain Race Face Enduro Team.
