Better performance. Better value. Better Rockhopper. By leveraging the fit and handling advantages of every rider with their ideal wheel size and suspension that works the hardest for everyone thanks to our size-specific Rx Tune, we've added extra performance to the Rockhopper without increasing the price.

The reliable and crisp Shimano drivetrain provides a robust 2x9 drivetrain that can handle anything you throw at it, while the assured braking of Shimano hydraulic disc brakes seals the deal.

  • A heart of gold, presented in our light yet robust Premium A1 Aluminum. The Rockhopper's variable thickness aluminum frame features hydroformed top and down tubes to maintain low weight and high strength, while also providing improved clearance, elegant internal cable routing, and dropper post compatibility.

  • With the goal of ensuring the Rockhopper offers both the best fit and performance for every person, regardless of size, we've matched each Rockhopper frame size with the optimal wheel size. The result: a Rockhopper suitable for every rider and the certainty that every Rockhopper rides with the wheel offering the best handling for its frame size.

  • We bring our Rx Tune to the Rockhopper for the very first time. The SR Suntour XCM with custom Multi-Circuit damping offers size-specific travel and spring rates, for impressive performance while ensuring consistent geometry, handling, and suspension, regardless of frame or wheel size.

  • Pair Formula's ultra-reliable hubs with our 25mm internal width rims for a winning trio: strong, light, and durable.
