I see the carbon fiber bikes from Rocky Mountain bikes use MSL in their branding (up until 2016, at least). What for the letters stand for?

  • Nice find - do you know what these phrases mean? If so, do please edit that extra info into the question. – Criggie♦ Jul 4 at 7:18
  • Is there a reference available for this too? – Swifty Jul 4 at 13:46
  • It is mentioned in this pinkbike article: pinkbike.com/news/… So good enough for me. Thanks! – JeffV Jul 7 at 17:00

Found some info on this page

Named after its instinctive ability to tame a variety of terrain, the Instinct MSL is the perfect platform for epic exploration and now features SMOOTHWALL™ carbon construction (designated as “MSL”)

Seems that MSL is some name that doesn't really stand for anything, but means that it has SMOOTHWALL Carbon construction.

  • Good find, but I suspect it has some other meaning. A bit of googling suggests that RSL models also have the SMOOTHWALL carbon construction – Andy P Jul 8 '19 at 11:17
