Rock-Solid Frame with Modern Geometry
The Premium A1 Aluminum frame of the Rockhopper Expert provides a lightweight yet durable base for your adventures.

Its internal cable routing keeps the bike clean and easy to maintain, while stealth rack mounts and dropper post compatibility add extra versatility for all types of riders.
Smooth and Reliable Suspension
The RockShox Judy SoloAir fork with Turnkey damper provides up to 100mm of travel (size-specific), offering smooth, controlled handling over rough terrain. The 46mm offset fork design delivers confidence and stability, while the alloy steerer reduces weight without compromising performance, making it ideal for riders who demand efficiency without sacrificing comfort.

Effortless Shifting for Any Trail
The Shimano Deore M5100 11-speed drivetrain offers smooth and intuitive shifting, allowing you to easily tackle a wide range of terrains. Whether you're climbing hills or cruising on flat ground, this drivetrain provides plenty of gear options for efficient pedaling, so you can focus on the ride ahead.
Durable, Lightweight Wheels
The Stout 1x forged alloy wheels are paired with Formula hubs for a durable and lightweight wheelset that can handle rugged trails while maintaining fast acceleration. The 25mm internal diameter rims are tubeless-ready, providing additional reliability and performance in tough conditions.
Optimized Fit for Every Rider
The Rockhopper Expert comes in multiple frame sizes, each paired with the optimal wheel size to ensure the best performance for riders of all shapes and sizes. This design ensures that whether you're on a 27.5" or 29" wheel setup, you'll experience a bike that delivers maximum control and handling for your body and riding style.
