FEATURES
TECHNOLOGIES
The Rockhopper
A heart of gold, presented in Specialized's lightweight yet durable Premium A1 Aluminum, the Rockhopper features butted aluminum tubes 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, Specialized has 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.
Superior Shifting
Settle in for any climb with the Shimano Altus 9-speed drivetrain, with two chainrings and a wide-range cassette for the perfect gear on any terrain. Ergonomic Rapidfire Plus™ trigger shifters offer precise gear changes without changing your grip compromising control. A durable Formula freehub and SunRace 9-speed cassette keeps you rolling smoothly without putting up a fuss.
Task-Orientated
Specialized chose the front and rear tyres to optimise around the Rochkopper wheel’s purpose. The front and rear Ground Control Sport tyre provide aggressive side knobs that offer grippy cornering bite in varied conditions. With Rx Tune on Rockhopper, the SR Suntour XCM 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 size
