The Rockhopper Expert proves that true trail capability doesn't have to come with immense prices. Thirty years of experience in development allow us to offer high-performance mountain bikes for beginners as well. The high-quality A1 aluminum frame and the modern geometry, which is efficient and powerful, form the rock-solid foundation for our best Rockhopper yet. And the list of components is impressive. With the RockShox Judy SoloAir suspension fork, the hydraulic and always reliable MT200 disc brakes, and the Deore M5100 drivetrain with 1 × 11 gears from Shimano, the Rockhopper Expert is ready to take off. The durable, high-quality, and tapered A1 aluminum frame of the Rockhopper is the heart of the bike. It features hydroformed top and down tubes that reduce weight and increase stability. The low standover height creates more space when standing and getting on and off. Additionally, the frame has 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 get the most out of the performance that lies within this bike. That’s why we offer the Rockhopper with different wheel sizes and corresponding frame sizes. This ensures that the Rockhopper fits everyone, whether tall or short, and that everyone can enjoy a wheel size they can control best. The hydraulic MT200 disc brakes from Shimano have a solid bite and deliver their braking power precisely and intuitively. With this braking performance, they go far beyond their price range. The durable Deore M5100 drivetrain from Shimano with 1 × 11 gears, a wide gear range, and a derailleur with cage damping (Clutch) ensures that annoying chain noises won't disturb you on your ride and that your chain stays on the chainring – reliably and effortlessly. Combine the reliable hubs from Formula with the hookless rims from Stout with a 25 mm internal width, and your wheelset will embody the saying: all good things come in threes – stable, lightweight, and durable.
