Specialized Hardrock 650b (2017)

Specialized takes entry level to the next level with the Hardrock 650b. Crafted from their A1 Premium aluminum, the frame is light, durable and nimble, while the SR Suntour fork serves up 75mm of bump-busting travel. Its tough 650b aluminum rims are ready for years of commuting and singletrack riding, and the Shimano 21-speed drivetrain makes hills doable. Plus, the Hardrock comes with powerful linear-pull brakes and a suite of low-maintenance Specialized components, including a supportive Body Geometry saddle.
