Specialized Rockhopper Base 29" gloss sage green/olive green MTB-Hardtail

Better performance. Better value. Better Rockhopper. We leveraged the fit and handling benefits of combining the ideal wheel size for every rider with suspension that works optimally for every rider thanks to our size-specific Rx Tune. This is how we gave the Rockhopper extra performance without increasing the price.

The reliable and crisp Shimano drivetrain offers a robust 2x9 drivetrain that can handle anything you throw at it. The reliable braking performance of Shimano hydraulic disc brakes completes the century-old offering.

The Rockhopper's double-butted aluminum frame has a heart of gold, presented in our lightweight yet durable Premium A1 Aluminum. It features hydroformed top and down tubes for light weight and high strength. At the same time, it offers a higher standover height, sleek internal cable routing, and dropper post compatibility.

To ensure the Rockhopper offers the best fit and performance for every rider, regardless of their size, we paired each Rockhopper frame size with the optimal wheel size. The result is a Rockhopper for every rider and the confidence that every Rockhopper rides on the best-handling wheel for their frame size.

The SR Suntour XCM with individual multi-circuit damping brings our Rx Tune to the Rockhopper for the first time, offering size-specific travel and spring rates for impressive performance. At the same time, it ensures consistent geometry, handling, and suspension performance regardless of frame or wheel size.

Combine Formula's rock-solid hubs with our 25mm inner diameter rims for a wheelset hat trick: tough, lightweight, and durable.
