Specialized Hardrock Sport

The Specialized Hardrock Sport is a mid-model in Specialized's line of extremely affordable entry-level hardtail mountain bikes. It is built using a fully butted A1 Premium Aluminum frame with double ORE down tube for durability and light weight, and features a 80mm smooth-travel fork with preload adjustment and size-specific spring rates. The SRAM X4 rear derailleur and 8-speed trigger shifters give smooth shifting and the XC crankset uses Octalink-splined BB interface for reliable pedaling power transfer. It features Specialized Fast Trak LK Sport tires with a reduced knob height for lower rolling resistance and uses alloy linear pull pad V brakes. The Specialized Hardrock Sport comes in Black/White or Red.
