Key differences

Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.

  1. Frame geometry

    2022 Rocky Mountain Altitude Alloy 70 Coil has 9 mm more reach than 2024 Rocky Mountain Altitude Alloy 70 Coil in the selected sizes.

    More reach puts the head-tube reference farther forward, not necessarily the hands.

  2. Handling

    2024 Rocky Mountain Altitude Alloy 70 Coil has a 2.4° slacker head-tube angle than 2022 Rocky Mountain Altitude Alloy 70 Coil in the selected sizes.

    Fork offset, tire size and wheelbase also affect steering; head angle alone is not a handling verdict.

  3. Data limitation

    Published weights cannot be compared because the measurement conditions are missing or differ.

Geometry overlay

Frames share one scale and a bottom-bracket alignment. Size labels differ by brand; schematic drawing aids are identified below.

Gearing comparison

Lower gears help on climbs. Higher gears suit higher speeds.

RPM

RPM = pedal turns per minute.

Speed unavailable: wheel or tire size is missing or unclear.

How it works

Ratio = front teeth ÷ rear teeth. Hub gears also include the hub’s internal ratio. A 400% range means the highest ratio is four times the lowest.

Speeds are estimates from tire size and pedal cadence. Actual speeds vary.
