Rocky Mountain Solo C90 Review: The Rocky Mountain Solo C90 is one of the best gravel bikes on the market. Its slack geometry makes it handle like a mountain bike in technical terrain. It’s lightweight and responsive, which allows you to focus on where you’re headed, rather than the weight below you.
Geometry: The geometry of the Rocky Mountain C90 is often optimized for off-road performance, with features like a slack headtube angle for stability on descents and a steep seat tube angle for efficient climbing.

The beauty of this frame is it has all sorts of bolt mounts for various bolt on bags and panniers. It also accepts a 50c tire, which opens the door to more adventurous terrain. I used it on a few bike packing adventures this summer and was really impressed with how it handled as an overnight machine.

The carbon frame is durable and responsive to the pedal stroke, yet vertically compliant on rough roads. You won’t feel beat up after a ride on this bike.

Rocky Mountain offers this bike with a 1x Sram groupset, but it does have a front derailleur mount if you’d like to run Shimano.
