Overview
The geometry and Reynolds 520 Cr-Mo tubes of the Altitude 00 and 10 frame combine to prove that the desirable ride feel of a quality steel frame doesn’t always come at a high cost. One of ‘What Mountain Bike’ magazine’s 12 best bikes of 2009, the Altitude 10 is part of a range that shows that even in 2010, it’s hard to beat the feel of a great steel frame.
The Altitude 10 uses design details like cowled dropouts and solder-sealed down tube reinforcement taken from the Altitude 853. An upgraded Recon 351 U-turn fork gives you the travel adaptability that made this an MBUK ‘best in test’ in 2009. The benefits of Rockshox Motion Control damping and the full Shimano transmission and braking finish of a benchmark £1000 trail bike that we’ve found it very difficult to improve upon.
