The Rockhopper Expert demonstrates that true trail readiness does not have to come with exorbitant prices. With thirty years of experience in development, we can offer high-performance mountain bikes even for beginners. The high-quality A1 aluminum frame and modern geometry provide an efficient and powerful foundation for our best Rockhopper yet. The list of components is impressive. Featuring the RockShox Judy SoloAir suspension fork, reliable hydraulic MT200 disc brakes, and Shimano's Deore M5100 1 × 11 drivetrain, the Rockhopper Expert is ready to take off. At the heart of the bike is the durable, high-quality, and tapered A1 aluminum frame. It boasts hydroformed top and down tubes that reduce weight while enhancing stability. The low standover height provides more room when standing and getting on and off the bike. Additionally, the frame includes internal cable routing for a clean look and is compatible with dropper seat posts. The Rockhopper is designed to fit your size perfectly. Only then can you extract the optimal performance that this bike has to offer. That’s why we provide the Rockhopper in various wheel sizes and corresponding frame sizes, ensuring that it suits everyone, whether tall or short, allowing each rider to enjoy the wheel size they can best control. Shimano's hydraulic MT200 disc brakes offer solid stopping power with precise and intuitive braking, exceeding expectations for their price range. The durable Shimano Deore M5100 drivetrain features a 1 × 11 setup, providing a wide gear range and a derailleur with a clutch to minimize chain noise on your ride and ensure your chain stays on the chainring—reliable and hassle-free. Combine the reliable Formula hubs with Stout’s hookless rims with a 25 mm inner width, and your wheelset will exemplify the saying “good things come in threes”—stable, lightweight, and durable.
