Better performance. Best value for money. Best Rockhopper. By leveraging the fit and handling benefits of an ideal wheel size for every rider and suspension optimized for all through our size-specific Rx Tune system, we have integrated enhanced performance into the Rockhopper without increasing its price.

The reliable and precise Shimano drivetrain offers a robust 2x9 transmission capable of handling all demands, while the dependable braking of Shimano hydraulic disc brakes seals the century-long experience.

A heart of gold, presented in our lightweight and durable A1 Premium aluminum, the reinforced aluminum Rockhopper frame features hydroformed top and down tubes for reduced weight and high strength, while providing increased standover clearance, smooth internal cable routing, and compatibility with a dropper post.

To ensure the Rockhopper offers the best fit and performance for everyone, regardless of size, we matched each Rockhopper frame size with the optimal wheel size. The result: a Rockhopper tailored to every rider and the guarantee that each Rockhopper rides on the most maneuverable wheel for its frame size.

Introducing for the first time our Rx Tune technology on the Rockhopper, the SR Suntour XCM with custom multi-circuit damping offers travel and spring stiffness specific to each size, delivering impressive performance while ensuring consistent geometry, handling, and suspension performance regardless of frame or wheel size.

Pair ultra-reliable Formula hubs with our 25mm internal diameter rims for an exceptional wheelset: strong, lightweight, and durable.
