With the Rockhopper Expert, we've redefined the value-performance relationship. Premium A1 Aluminum frame, modern geometry, and top-notch components make it our best yet. Read more.
We are proud to present the Rockhopper Expert, the result of a long history of development. Designed to deliver true trail-mastering ability without scaring you away with its price tag, it embodies the result of 30 years of constant reassessment of the relationship between value and performance.
Start with a thoughtfully designed Premium A1 Aluminum frame, add modern geometry that keeps one eye on efficiency and the other on confidence capability, and you have the solid foundation of our best Rockhopper yet.
Pair that with a components list that leaves no room for respite (can we applaud RockShox's Judy SoloAir fork and Shimano's ever-charging MT-200 hydraulic disc brakes?), and you've got a tubeless-ready Rockhopper , equipped with a Shimano Deore M5100 1x11, absolutely ready to take off.
A heart of gold, presented in our lightweight yet durable Premium A1 aluminum, the Rockhopper's stepped aluminum frame features hydroformed top and down tubes to keep weight low and strength high, while providing increased standover height, routing smooth internal cables and dropper post compatibility.
To ensure the Rockhopper gives every person the best fit and performance, regardless of their measurement, we've matched each Rockhopper frame size to the optimal wheel size. The result is a Rockhopper for every rider and the assurance that each Rockhopper rides on the wheel best suited to their frame size.
Beautifully beastly, the Tektro hydraulic disc brakes offer impressive bite but deliver their power with a refined, intuitive feel, for a package that far exceeds its price point.
Simplify things with a sturdy Shimano 1x drivetrain with a wide gear range and a clutch-equipped rear derailleur that keeps your ride quiet - and your chain in place.
Pair Formula's ultra-reliable hubs with our 25-millimeter internal diameter, hookless Stout rims for a strong, lightweight and durable wheelset.
