Specialized Rockhopper Comp '12

Specialized Rockhopper Comp

‘Good brakes let you ride faster.’ Avid.

The Rockhopper Comp proves the old Avid slogan, good brakes let you ride faster. Avid Elixir brake’s TaperBore master cylinder delivers a more linear lever action. A light touch on the lever scrubs speed. When you need more power, simply pull the lever further. The tapered bore also helps eliminate wear and tear on the seals and helps guarantee longer service life.
