The Rockhopper Sport embodies performance, turning traditional approaches upside down when it comes to scoring points on the board while keeping an eye on the budget. Ready for any game, equipped with Tektro M275 hydraulic disc brakes, Shimano CUES shifting, and an SR SunTour XCM fork designed for action, the Rockhopper can clinch victories every Sunday – and throughout the rest of the week. Constructed with a heart of gold, presented in our lightweight yet durable Premium A1 aluminum, the Rockhopper features a butted aluminum frame with hydroformed top and down tubes to maintain low weight and high strength. It also provides increased standover height, sleek internal cable routing, and compatibility with dropper posts. To ensure that the Rockhopper offers the best fit and performance for everyone, we have paired each Rockhopper frame size with the optimal wheel size. This results in a Rockhopper that suits every rider and guarantees that each one is equipped with the best handling wheels for its frame size. For the first time featuring our Rx Tune technology, the lockout-capable SR Suntour XCM comes with custom multi-circuit damping for specific travel and spring rates based on size, delivering impressive performance while ensuring consistent geometry, handling, and suspension performance regardless of frame or wheel size. Beautiful and powerful, Tektro hydraulic disc brakes offer strong stopping power while delivering a refined, intuitive feel, elevating the package well beyond its price range. Keep it simple with a durable 1x Shimano drivetrain system offering plenty of range, along with a chain shifting mechanism equipped with a chain guide that reduces noise and secures your chain. Rely on the incredibly reliable hubs from Formula and our 25mm inner diameter, hookless Specialized rims for a robust, lightweight, and durable wheelset.
