• A heart of gold, presented in our lightweight yet durable Premium A1 Aluminum, the Rockhopper’s butted aluminum frame features hydroformed top and downtubes in order to keep weight low and strength high, all while providing increased standover clearance, slick internal cable routing and dropper-post compatibility.
• With the goal of making sure that the Rockhopper offers both the best fit and best performance for every person, no matter their measure, we’ve paired each Rockhopper frame size with the optimal wheel size. The result is a Rockhopper to fit every rider and the assurance that every Rockhopper is rolling on the best-handling wheel for its frame size.
• Bringing our Rx Tune to Rockhopper for the very first time, the SR Suntour XCM with custom Multi-Circuit damping brings size-specific travel and spring rates to the show in a performance that’s sure to impress while also ensuring consistent geometry, handling and suspension performance, regardless of frame or wheel size.
• Pair dead-reliable hubs from Formula with our 25-millimeter internal diameter, rims for a wheelset hat-trick: strong, light and durable

This bike features a Specialized A1 premium butted alloy frame with a zero-stack head tube, internal cable routing, 135x9mm forged dropouts, chainstay-mounted disc brake, replaceable alloy derailleur hanger, stealth rack mounts, and dropper post compatibility, secured by an alloy quick-release 34.9 seat binder. The suspension is handled by an SR Suntour XCE fork with 28mm stanchions, coil spring, quick release, size-specific travel of 80/90/100mm, and a 42mm offset. Stopping power comes from Tektro HD-M280 hydraulic disc brakes with 2-piston calipers front and rear. The drivetrain consists of a Shimano Altus 2-speed front derailleur, Shimano Altus 9-speed rear derailleur, Shimano Altus RapidFire Plus 9-speed shifters, a SunRace 9-speed 11-36t cassette, and a KMC X9EPT chain with anti-corrosion coating and a reusable Missing Link™, paired with a Stout 2x forged alloy crankset and square-tapered bottom bracket with internal bearings. Rolling on Specialized alloy double-wall rims with a 25mm inner width and 32h, the bike uses alloy sealed bearing hubs with 6-bolt disc mounts and quick-release axles (100x9mm front, 135x9mm rear), laced with stainless 14g spokes, and fitted with Ground Control 2BR 650B/29x2.35 T5 tires and standard Schrader valve tubes.
