Forget all the bravado - with the Rockhopper Expert we have really outdone ourselves. This mountain bike proves that true trail performance doesn't have to come with a sky-high price tag. After more than 30 years of innovation, the Rockhopper Expert is the perfect balance between performance, quality and value.

The foundation is a carefully designed Premium A1 aluminum frame with modern geometry. On one hand, it ensures efficient power transfer, while on the other hand, providing the confidence and control you need on challenging trails. The result is the most capable Rockhopper we've ever built.

The high-quality assembly completes the picture. Consider a RockShox Judy SoloAir fork, powerful SRAM DB4 hydraulic disc brakes, and an SRAM NX 1x12 drivetrain. Together they form a tubeless-ready mountain bike that is ready to take on any adventure.

The Premium A1 aluminum frame combines low weight with exceptional durability. Thanks to the double-butted tubes, the weight is limited without sacrificing strength. Additionally, the frame features extra standover clearance, internal cable routing, and the option to mount a dropper post.

To provide every rider with the best fit and riding experience, each frame size is paired with the optimal wheel size. This way, every Rockhopper benefits from the best handling and maximum control, regardless of frame size.

The powerful hydraulic disc brakes deliver impressive stopping power with refined and well-metered control, a feature typically only found in higher price ranges.

The durable SRAM 1x12 drivetrain offers a wide gear range and is equipped with a clutch rear derailleur, keeping the chain quiet and securely in place, even on rough terrain.

Finally, the reliable hubs and rims with a 25mm internal width create a wheelset that excels in three key attributes: strength, lightweight performance, and durability.
