Specialized Hardrock 2012
Specialized Say:
'The perfect way to enter the world of Mountain biking. Whether hitting the local woods for the first time or commuting, the Hardrocks versatile package can do it all. With a class leading frame, plush Suntour suspension and reliable Shimano gearing, the Specialized Hardrock might be the first and last bike your will ever need.'
We Say:
'The Specialized Hardrock comes with upgraded components over the more entry Hardrock SE.
When the going gets tough you've got 24 gears for easier hill climbing. Amazing value for a 'true' Mountain bike, and one that will last a very very long time. Come check the Specialized Hardrock out at Noahs.'
