A light, capable, and reliable bike makes cruising open fire roads, attacking stretches of flowing singletrack, or just kicking around town that much more fun. The Rockhopper has done this—and more—for years with quality and performance at a good value.

WHAT:

Fully formed and butted, lightweight M4 alloy frame with balanced XC Trail geometry in dedicated 26” and 29” models.

WHY:

Delivers faster acceleration and climbing, remains stable on descents, and offers increased comfort and durability. The combination of forming and butting produces the lightest frame possible, without sacrificing strength.

HOW:

Fully formed tubes are individually shaped for their unique purpose, allowing our engineers to optimize tube sets for specific performance characteristics. The butting process shaves excess material—and weight—in low-stress areas of each tube.
