Expirience with the Specialized Rockhopper Sport 27.5

Ludwig Döhl In terms of riding on long tours, the Specialized Rockhopper Sport 27.5 is an absolute banger. short chainstays and a moderate reach make the handling pleasantly playful. When it comes to the seating position, Specialized chooses the middle ground between sporty and comfortable. A shout out to Specialized – we take our hats off, because a first-class price / performance ratio make the Racebike von Specialized for on long tours a benchmark in the price range under 600 Euro. With 25 years the warranty is another neat feature.
