The Rockhopper Expert demonstrates that true trail capability doesn’t have to come with an exorbitant price tag. With thirty years of experience in bike development, we are able to offer high-performance mountain bikes for beginners. The high-quality A1 Aluminum frame and modern geometry provide a highly efficient and powerful foundation for our best Rockhopper yet. The list of components is impressive. Equipped with the RockShox Judy SoloAir suspension fork, reliable MT200 hydraulic disc brakes, and the Shimano Deore M5100 drivetrain featuring 1 × 11 gears, the Rockhopper Expert is ready for action. The durable and high-quality conical A1 Aluminum frame is the heart of the bike. It features hydroformed top and down tubes that reduce weight while increasing stability. The low standover height provides more clearance when standing and mounting or dismounting. Additionally, the frame includes internal cable routing for a clean look and is compatible with dropper seat posts. The Rockhopper is designed to perfectly fit your size. Only then can you maximize the performance hidden within this bike. That’s why we offer the Rockhopper in various wheel sizes and corresponding frame sizes, ensuring it fits everyone, whether tall or short, and allowing each rider to enjoy the wheel size they can control best. Shimano’s hydraulic MT200 disc brakes have significant stopping power, delivering precise and intuitive braking. Their performance surpasses what is expected in this price range. The durable Shimano Deore M5100 drivetrain with 1 × 11 gears offers a wide range of gear ratios and a derailleur with a clutch to keep annoying chain noise at bay while ensuring your chain stays on the chainring—dependably and effortlessly. Combine the reliable hubs from Formula with Stout’s hookless rims with a 25mm internal width, and your wheelset embodies the saying: good things come in threes – stable, lightweight, and long-lasting.
