Altitude Powerplay 2026

The Altitude Powerplay is Rocky Mountain's full-power enduro eMTB, built around the in-house Dyname S4 Pro motor. The headline figures are 110Nm of torque and up to 1000W peak from a 720Wh removable battery, with an optional 314Wh Overtimepack 2.0 range extender that bolts to the downtube. Travel sits at 170mm front and 160mm rear on the LC2R virtual-pivot platform, putting it squarely in big-hit enduro territory.

Geometry is aggressive: a 63.1 degree head angle and 505mm reach on the XL in the neutral RIDE-4 POS.3 position, with the rotating RIDE-4 chip offering four geometry and suspension-rate settings from Slack to Steep. Chainstays are size-specific (448mm on M and L, 458mm on XL), and the FSA Orbit NO.85 reach-adjust headset adds further tuning via 0 and +/-5mm cups. Size SM runs 27.5in wheels front and rear (with a slacker 63.5 degree head angle), M to XL run 29in, and MX (27.5 rear) is available on sizes MD to XL via the MX link.

Three builds make up the range. The carbon-framed Carbon 70 is the flagship, with a Fox 38 Factory fork, Float X2 Factory shock, SRAM Maven brakes and an Eagle 90 Transmission drivetrain. Below it sit two alloy bikes: the Alloy 50 swaps to a RockShox Zeb Select RC and Fox Float X Performance while keeping the Eagle 90 transmission, and the Alloy 30 brings the entry price down with a RockShox Domain Gold, Marzocchi Bomber Air shock and a Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain. All three share the same frame platform, motor and 720Wh battery, so the spend buys suspension and drivetrain rather than power.
