Better performance. Better value. Better Rockhopper. By tapping the fit and handling advantages of pairing each rider with their ideal wheel size and suspension that works its hardest for everyone thanks to our size-specific Rx Tune, we've baked in added performance to the Rockhopper without dialing up the price.
The reliable and crisp Shimano drivetrain provides a robust 2x9 drivetrain that can handle everything you're throw down while confident braking from Shimano hydraulic disc brakes seals the deal of the century.
