This new version of the Rocker welcomes revisions that continue the model’s legacy as the most versatile advanced carbon hardtail on the planet. The addition of SRAM T-Type compatibility modernizes the timeless legend, while unchanged geometry numbers ensure the same spirited on-trail personality that Rocker fans appreciate.
Rocker’s all-carbon frame has one of the best strength-to-weight ratios in the industry. We carefully engineered tube shapes and layup patterns to create a super playful ride, offer a low standover height, and accommodate full-length dropper posts for unencumbered maneuverability. The bike takes advantage of longer, slacker geometry, without sacrificing the nimbleness that makes hardtails such sensational handlers.
Short seatstays place the rider’s weight squarely over the rear wheel for uphill traction, with clearance for big tires. And with moderate, intentionally un-endurofied geometry, the Rocker is a beacon for modern hardtail lovers looking for a capable trail machine that perfectly blends the speed and snappiness of a race rocket with a healthy appetite for adventure.
Spot’s patented Kobe 3 Slider Dropouts offer modularity that enable the bike to be swapped between geared and belt-driven single-speed setups in a stiffer, quieter, lighter, more compact and secure design than anything else on the market. With three separately available kits, Rocker V2 can be run with SRAM Transmission, a traditional derailleur, or in full-on masochistic single-speed mode.
The Rocker frame was designed based on detailed analysis and testing, both in the lab and on the trail. The frame shape is driven by a Force-Response design philosophy that maximizes strength and durability, and focuses material in areas where it is most needed. Beefy chainstays handle huge power loads and prevent flex, keeping the belt straight and true when run as a singlespeed. Svelte seatstays provide comfort in the saddle. The large box section downtube streamlines power transfer between the handlebars and pedals, while the trim top tube saves weight, lowers the center of mass, and provides easy stand-over clearance.
The Rocker is a modern hardtail that is light enough to race and burly enough for hard-charging descenders. The roomy reach, relaxed headtube angle and short chainstays create balance and instill the confidence to get after it.
Our patented Kobe Slider Dropouts are the lightest, most compact, and easiest to adjust chain-or belt-drive-optimized sliding dropouts on the market. They offer 15mm of slider throw, an inboard brake mount for better protection, and precise adjustments capabilities for optimal tension.
With clearance for a 29x 2.4" rear tire, the Rocker can be tailored to any terrain and rider preference.
Our Groovy Guides integrate the rear brake line into the tube, providing a clean look while also offering easier access than internal cable routing. Groovy Guides make it easy to service what may be the most important cable on your bike, while also keeping it out of the way and eliminating snags.
We design and test our frames to the highest standards so you can be confident in your investment. Should you have an issue with your Spot frame, we will warranty it against manufacturing defects for the lifetime of the frame. Of course there's some fine print (read here), but if you buy a bike and ride it as it is intended to be ridden, we've got your back. And if you do get into a fender-bender, we have a fantastic crash replacement program as well.
I've owned a lot of bikes in my life and this is by far my favorite. It climbs incredible fast and handles extremely well on the down hills.
The "winter" pricing was hard to resist, but I had a spare I9 wheelset from my FS bike, so I decided to build a custom with the (M) frameset. The significant differences over stock were:
* 90mm stem (short legs, long torso for 5'8")
* XT brakes
* 780mm bars (more leverage for climbing/downhills)
* X01 crank
* Nobby Nics (2.4", better traction for NE trails)
* 39/30 gearing (38 vs. 48 stock gear inches, emphasis on easier climbing for OUR terrain)
After a half dozen rides, this has been my favorite MTB (since 1987). Hard not to repeat the positive comments from everyone else, but I can climb better on this bike than anything else I've tried, AND I'm outclimbing my friends on their FS geared bikes (and, like someone else said, I'm not missing my FS bike). SS hardtail definitely turns you into a "better" rider, always looking for the smoothest lines, anticipating the steeper climbs, timing the sprint bursts during descents, etc.. Handling is crisp and solid, and the geometry is well balanced for both seated and standing climbing. Build weight was 20.0lbs before pedals and sealant, so that definitely contributes to its climbing ability. I'm not going to win any downhill races on this thing, especially with its low gearing, but it does everything else so well (and I love the belt drive), and that's what makes me happy!
Been riding SS for ~20 years.
What a great bike. Pedal efficiency, great look, smooth cornering. Couldn't be happier. It is a very noticable improvement to my former SS bike. So happy I pulled the trigger and purchased the SPOT. I am a new happy customer. Just starred the next phase of life in retirement with a new friend.
Lastly, thank you Spot team for expediting my build to bring the bike to our summer home in Northern Michigan. The bikes eats this place up. Wonderful trails.
I have three Spots… love all of them! Singlespeeds rock!
It's fun running everything over and blowing by people on this rally truck of a SS. It climbs great to, but it's a beast on the downhills.
