Excuse the brag, but we’ve really outdone ourselves here. Proving that true trail-taming
capability doesn’t have to come at an intimidating price, the Rockhopper Expert is the
culmination of 30 years of redefining the relationship between value and performance. Start
with a painstakingly engineered Premium A1 Aluminum frame, add in modern geometry that
keeps one eye on efficiency and the other on confident capability and you have the rock-solid
foundation of our best Rockhopper yet. Pair that with a parts list that just doesn’t quit (...can
we get a shoutout for RockShox’s Judy SoloAir fork and SRAM’s always-in-charge Level
hydraulic disc brakes?) and you have a tubeless-ready, SRAM Eagle 1x12-equipped
Rockhopper that’s absolutely prepared to fly.

• A heart of gold, presented in our lightweight yet durable Premium A1 Aluminum, the
Rockhopper’s butted aluminum frame features hydroformed top and downtubes 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, we’ve 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.

• A breath of fresh air at this price point—and plenty north of it, RockShox’s Judy SoloAir
brings air-sprung sensitivity and performance to the masses with a killer value
proposition: more bang, less buck. The TurnKey damper deftly dishes out travel letting
you focus on what’s ahead.

• Soar up climbs and dive down descents with SRAM's ultra-wide-range SX Eagle 1x12
drivetrain.

• Tubeless-ready rims and tires keep your options open and traction on-call.
