The 2021 Specialized Rockhopper Expert 27.5 Hardtail Mountain Bike is the culmination of 30 years of redefining the relationship between value and performance and proves that true trail-taming capability doesn't have to come at an intimidating price.

Start with a painstakingly engineered Premium A1 Aluminum frame, add in modern geometry that keeps one eye on efficiency and the other on confident capability and you have the rock-solid foundation of Specialized's best Rockhopper yet. Pair that with a parts list that includes a RockShox Judy SoloAir fork, Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes, tubeless-ready wheels, and a SRAM Eagle 1x12 drivetrain and you have a Rockhopper that ready to fly.

The Premium A1 Aluminum frame features butted aluminum tubes in order to keep weight low and strength high, all the while providing increased standover clearance, slick internal cable routing and dropper-post compatibility. And to make sure that the Rockhopper offers both the best fit and best performance for every person, no matter their measure, Specialized have paired each Rockhopper frame size with the optimal wheel size. The result is a Rockhopper to fit every rider and the assurance that every Rockhopper is rolling on the best-handling wheel for its frame size.
