Product Details

FOR OVER TWO DECADES the Rockhopper has been the best hardtail for any rider looking for thrills and adventure over a wide variety of terrain. The Rockhopper's M4 alloy frame and premium specs deliver category-leading efficiency, value and dependable handling.

The Rockhopper Pro Disc’s M4 manipulated alloy frame is fully butted for lightweight strength, with forged dropouts and a replaceable derailleur hanger.
The RockShox Recon Race SLite features 100mm of coil-sprung travel and an easy-to-use Turn Key damper, which easily shifts from “open” to “locked out.”
The oversized-diameter Specialized handlebar gives precise steering and features a comfort-increasing 8-degree upsweep and 8-degree backsweep.
Front and rear hydraulic disc brakes offer a smooth, fluid feel. Paired with the 6-inch G2 Clean Sweep rotors, you get powerful braking, right at your fingertips.
The medium cage rear derailleur gives reliable, precise gear changes.
The Shimano Deore crankset uses a two-piece design, the outboard bearings on the BB make for a solid, smooth-spinning platform.
The Fast Track Control 29x2.0-inch tires feature a dual compound tread for superior traction and durability, whether you opt to go 2Bliss or not.
The Indie XC saddle uses our patented Body Geometry design to protect your soft parts.
