Specialized ROCKHOPPER SPORT KH - XL, Satin Metallic Obsidian / Shadow Silver, 2027

All action and no downtime, the Rockhopper Sport throws the playbook out the window when it comes to racking up performance points while giving your wallet a serious break.

Ready for action with Shimano’s BR-MT200 hydraulic disc brakes, microSHIFT Advent shifting, and an SR SunTour XCM fork built for speed, the Rockhopper Sport can rack up the wins any given Sunday—and the rest of the week, too, for that matter.

With a heart of gold, crafted from our lightweight yet durable Premium A1 Aluminum, the Rockhopper’s butted aluminum frame features hydroformed top and downtubes to keep weight low and strength high, all while providing increased standover clearance, clean internal cable routing, and dropper-post compatibility. To ensure that the Rockhopper offers both the best fit and best performance for every rider, regardless of their size, we’ve paired each Rockhopper frame size with the optimal wheel size. The result is a Rockhopper that fits every rider and the assurance that every Rockhopper is rolling on the best-handling wheel for its frame size. Introducing our Rx Tune to the Rockhopper for the very first time, the lockout-equipped SR Suntour XCM with custom Multi-Circuit damping delivers size-specific travel and spring rates, delivering performance that’s sure to impress while ensuring consistent geometry, handling, and suspension performance—regardless of frame or wheel size. Beautifully beastly, Shimano hydraulic disc brakes pack a mean bite but deliver their power with a refined, intuitive feel, creating a package that punches way above its pay grade. Keep things simple with a durable 1x microSHIFT drivetrain that offers plenty of range and features a clutch-equipped rear derailleur to keep your ride quiet—and your chain in place. Pair dead-reliable hubs from Formula with our 25-millimeter internal diameter, hookless Specialized rims for a strong, light, and durable wheelset hat trick.
