Amazing Bike

So I got into mountain biking in 2021 and thought I'd I bought the most expensive Walmart bike that I would be ok. Well it left something to be desired. I purchased this 2017 Rockhopper 29 used off Facebook and took it to my local bike shop for a refreshing. And so far its amazing compared to what I was riding now I can actually take it on actual mountain bike trails and feel like I have more bike underneath me where with the other bike it felt like the thing could break in half on me at any given time. Its given me a lot more confidence in my bike. And look forward to riding some more trails that I didn't dare try and ride the Walmart bike on.

Would Recommend?: Yes!

A rock solid mountain bike

I have been using this for the last 3 years in my hometown - Bangalore. This is an excellent bike that has held up well over the potholed roads in my city and the trails and off-beat paths that only have gravel and no paving. I bike about 300-400 kms each month and the brakes, the shocks and the frame have been rock-solid despite the terrain that it has gone through, not to mention the monsoon madness that I have put it through. I wanted to get the same bike in a women's design for my wife but sadly could not find one in the local stores here.

Yes definitely would recommend it to anyone

Great handling bike, would take on anything I trow at it, smooth gear shifting, tires absorb really well. Really good quality bike for the money.
