Key Benefits for Riders
Durable and Lightweight Frame
Crafted from Premium A1 Aluminum, the Rockhopper Sport 27.5 features a butted alloy frame that ensures both strength and reduced weight. The hydroformed top and downtubes provide added stiffness for improved handling while maintaining a lightweight build. Internal cable routing keeps your bike clean and efficient, and the frame design includes increased standover clearance for easy handling. This bike is dropper post compatible, allowing you to easily upgrade for more trail versatility.
Effortless Stopping Power
Equipped with SRAM Level hydraulic disc brakes, the Rockhopper Sport delivers reliable stopping power in all conditions. Whether you’re riding through muddy trails or making tight turns on dry paths, these brakes offer smooth, intuitive stopping that enhances safety and control.
Suspension Built for Performance
The SR Suntour XCM fork on the Rockhopper Sport is specifically tuned with Rx Tune to provide size-specific travel and spring rates. With a lockout-equipped, 80-100mm travel fork, this bike offers a smooth, controlled ride across various terrain types. The custom Multi-Circuit damping system ensures your suspension performs consistently, regardless of the frame size or wheel size, so you can confidently handle whatever the trail throws your way.
Simplified, Reliable Drivetrain
With the MicroSHIFT 1x9 drivetrain, the Rockhopper Sport keeps things simple while still offering plenty of gear range to tackle steep climbs and fast descents. The clutch-equipped rear derailleur ensures your chain stays put and runs quietly, so you can focus on the trail ahead without worrying about dropped chains or noisy shifting.
Strong, Durable Wheels
The combination of Formula hubs and Stout rims with a 25mm internal diameter provides the perfect balance of strength, weight, and durability. Whether you're flying over rough terrain or cruising on smoother paths, these wheels are built to handle it all, providing excellent grip and traction at all times.
