Mountain Bike Monday - SPECIALIZED HARDROCK SPORTDISC 29

Today we are highlighting the Specialized Hardrock SportDisc 29'er.  This is an entry level 29" mountain bike that would serve you well for trail riding around Western New York and other areas quite well!

Let's see what Specialized has to say about their Hardrock SportDisc 29'er:

With a smooth SR Suntour 29er fork with lockout, powerful Tektro Hydraulic disc brakes, and double-walled 29" alloy wheels, the Hardrock Disc 29er is prepared for mountain trails and urban jungles.

• Fully butted A1 Premium Aluminum 29er frame with ORE down tube for a lighter, more compliant and durable bike
• 80mm-travel SR Suntour fork with preload adjustment, lockout and size-specific spring rates means the suspension is dialed for rider size
• Light and durable double-walled 29" alloy rims are tough enough to handle the rough stuff
• Specialized 29" Fast Trak Sport 29x2.0" tires use Adaptive Tread Technology for lower rolling resistance, but have plenty of grip for confidence on the trail
• SR Suntour XCT 8-speed crankset offers a wide range of gear selections and reliable shifting
• Tektro hydraulic disc brakes/levers with Light Wave rotors create increased control and superior stopping power for more confident braking
• Sunrace 8-speed, 11-34 cassette offers a broad range of gearing options for getting up to speed on the trail
• Specialized Body Geometry Hardrock saddle has ample padding for comfort, and front/rear bumpers for on and off-road durability
