The BottleRocket was designed as an answer to a new progression in trail building and freeriding. Trails are starting to look more like big mountain slopestyle parks with big gap doubles, wall rides and berms that emphasize style and flow. The mid travel of 5.5" is just enough for the big stuff without slowing you down and the frame is extremely tough to handle the abuse of bike parks like Whistler. The geometry is designed with a low bottom bracket, short chain stays and super sloped top tube to make this bike extremely agile and easy to throw around for tricks. The BottleRocket also features a one-piece CNC'd rocker that makes the rear end incredibly laterally stiff for cornering and pedaling hard. If you need a bike that can truly ride it all, the BottleRocket is the answer.

Mountain Bike Action reviews the DirtBag
 "We were very happy with its agile geometry, suspension performance and durable build. This bike is not for everyone but should be at the top of your list if you're an aggressive all-mountain rider with a dirt jumping or street riding background looking for a mountain bike to accentuate your bike handling skills."

Ride Central reviews the BottleRocket
 "It's bloody versatile that's for sure. I've seen this bike hurled off of drops, floated through the trails and now I was being taught how it could pin the singletrack and DH."
