Today we are going to highlight the Specialized Hardrock Sport Disc 29:
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

The bike has a MSRP of $700.00 and is a very capable mountain bike. I would not consider it entry level because there are models with lower pricing and component levels but if you are looking for a bike that can handle local trails without breaking the bank this is a great way to go. If I were contemplating a 100 mile race or some hard core riding I would look to a higher level of bike and components but if you are wanting to ride Sprage Brook, Hunters Creek, or other local trails this bike will do the trick for you.
