The 2026 Specialized Rockhopper Sport Hardtail Mountain Bike is the second bike in the Rockhopper range. It comes with a couple of key upgrades to give beginner mountain bikers a more trail ready bike for longer off-road adventures.

The heart of the Rockhopper is a lightweight yet durable Premium A1 Aluminium frame. It uses hydroformed top and downtubes in order to keep weight low and strength high, all while providing increased standover clearance, slick internal cable routing and dropper-post compatibility. The smaller sizes of the Rockhopper use 27.5" wheels while the larger bikes have 29" wheels. 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.

The Rockhopper Sport comes with a reliable Shimano CUES 1x9 drivetrain and Shimano's bomb-proof BR-MT200 hydraulic disc brakes. The SR Suntour XCM suspension fork comes with custom Multi-Circuit damping and size-specific travel and spring rates.

This bike is perfect for

Beginner mountain bikers who want to spend most of their time exploring off-road. With upgraded brakes, gears and forks the Rockhopper Sport gives a better off-road experience.

Key Features

Who are Specialized?

Specialized is one of the best-known quality bike brands in the world. Started by a group of riders in 1974. A fact which has guided their decision making ever since.

" Made for riders, by riders."

They strove to make the best quality tires when quality tyres weren't around. When people wanted to ride cruisers in the dirt, they made the first production mountain bike. When roadies wanted to go faster, Specialized doubled down on carbon and built their own wind tunnel.

Bikes like the Allez, Rockhopper and Stumpjumper have developed followings and reputations of their own. Specialized has a reputation for making high-end, high-quality bikes. Specialized bikes always look great with high-quality paint and sensible sizing hel0s you get the right bike each time. If you buy a Specialized bike you can be guaranteed it will do what it is supposed to and will last.
