Rocky Mountain Solo

Yes, it is designed for exactly that. The frame features multiple integrated mounting points for racks, fenders, and extra gear, making it a capable platform for multi-day trips or long-distance touring.

The frame accommodates up to 700x40c tires or 650bx2.2 tires. This clearance gives you enough flexibility to choose between faster-rolling tires for pavement or wider, knobbier options for loose gravel and dirt.

The carbon fork is a significant upgrade over an alloy equivalent because it actively dampens road vibration. This helps reduce fatigue in your hands and arms when you are riding over rough gravel or washboard surfaces for extended periods.

Yes, the bike comes with WTB ST i23 TCS rims, which are tubeless-ready. Running a tubeless setup is highly recommended for this bike to reduce the risk of flats and allow you to run lower tire pressures for better traction on loose terrain.

The 1x11 Sram Rival drivetrain simplifies your shifting by removing the front derailleur, which reduces mechanical complexity and the chance of dropped chains. It provides a wide enough gear range for most gravel riding while keeping the cockpit clean and intuitive.

While alloy is stiffer than steel or carbon, the Rocky Mountain Solo uses a butted 6061 SL Series Alloy frame designed to balance durability with comfort. When paired with the carbon fork and the ability to run higher-volume tubeless tires, the ride quality remains compliant and comfortable for long days in the saddle.
