Introducing the Rocky Mountain Sherpa

We're excited to announce the new Sherpa overland bike. Bikepacking has been around for a long time, but the Sherpa puts a Rocky Mountain twist on the concept. We wanted a bike that could tackle more challenging terrain and would let us get a little rowdy—even loaded down for multi day self-supported adventures. The Sherpa will carry you and your gear to the ends of the earth, far from the nearest Strava segment and through whatever ambitious backcountry route you didn’t know you were planning.

Why the fuck would you discontinue the sherpa 30 ? BIG MISTAKE !!

I rode that bike last night at a demo in the Pittsfield State Forest and it was a blast! I was only slightly slower on the climbs than on my Giant Anthem Advanced SX race bike and was slightly faster downhill, but felt so much safer bombing down. And ... it was really fun to ride. Like 2x setup. I hate 1x. I wouldn't market this as a trekking bike only. It's a great every day mountain bike. Only things I'd change would be the tires to something with a rounded profile and add a dropper post. Great bike! Great job Rocky Mountain! Anyone want to buy either of my Giant Anthems? :-)

Ticky Takcy, but I'm pretty sure 'Prescott area' does not have many saguaro cactii. I'm guessing south quite a bit and a long ride south. The bike looks cool however and thanks for the video

Full suspension bikepacking bike... I'm not convinced

Very cool bike. I love the concept. But in outer Kazakhstan, if I have a failure, isn't it much more likely to be a simple tire failure before it is a hub failure? Now what are my chances to find a 27" (let alone or 27+") tire in those regions ;-) Just admit you took the 142 standard because there was no 148 when you designed that bike :-p

i just went to your website and i cringed when i saw the stupid names you guys are giving to your bikes...rocky mountain sounds cool but then you ruin it by adding names like sherpa, maiden, growler, rc, slayer. please get some good names because i was interested in your bikes but now i will look elsewhere because i`m embarrassed by this
