2010 Rockhopper SL
Built primarily for enthusiast riders in search of adventure and fitness, the light and efficient Rockhopper SL hardtails are just the right amount of bike to feed a new obsession for tree-lined trails, open fire roads or wherever the pavement ends.
For XC hardtail riders looking to upgrade their trail adventures or maybe even nab their first real deal mountain bike, the Rockhopper® is impossible to beat. A lightweight and responsive M4 chassis, capable MTB components and straight-out-of-the-box performance make this bike feel like a much more expensive ride.
