Mountain Biking Pure and Simple

Singlespeed mountain biking is trail riding distilled to its purest elements: you, the trail, one gear, no excuses. Our new Rocker SS embodies that pure simplicity and elevates it with a lightweight yet burly full-carbon frame, a red-hot belt drive and other innovations that make this the fastest and most technologically advanced singlespeed MTB on the market.
 
Weighing in as low as 2.8 pounds, the Rocker’s frame, upgraded from our previous steel version, is nimble, strong, and versatile, with derailleur-ready dropouts should you decide to gear up down the road. The Gates Carbon Drive belt never stretches, never rusts, withstands chain-snapping torque loads and is a proven race winner.
We spec a dropper post on the wide-diameter seat post for aggressive descending, and the Rocker has ample clearance for wide tires that enhance ride feel and control. Our patented Kobe 3 Slider Dropouts make rear flat fixes a cinch—just pop the wheel back in without having to adjust the belt tension or fiddle around.
Spot was a pioneer in the resurgence of singlespeed mountain biking with our steel Rockers. Now we have raised the bar again by creating the ultimate no-nonsense grab-and-go bike for after-work fitness rides or weekend races. Rediscover your passion for fast and light trail riding in its simplest form. It’s just you and the mountain, now go.
#rockerlife

Belt Drive

We designed the Gates Carbon Drive CenterTrack system. For singlespeeders who want to go fast, it is a proven race winner. With its incredibly strong carbon tensile cords embedded within a no-rust and grease-free polyurethane body, the Gates Carbon Drive system, developed right here in Colorado, is highest performing, lowest maintenance, longest lasting and lightest SS drivetrain available.

Kobe Slider 3 Dropouts

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. Tire fixes are easy. Drop the rear wheel as you would with any thru-axle dropout, then pop it back into position with no adjustments, and resume riding. Singlespeed belt or geared chain.

Force-response frame

We designed the Rocker frame 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 (or belt stays) handle huge power loads and prevent flex, keeping the belt straight and true. 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.

Modern Geometry

The Rocker is a modern hardtail that is light enough to race yet burly enough to air out and descend with trail bikes due to its dropper post, long reach, steep seattube angle and relaxed headtube angle. It’s a confidence inspiring bike on challenging downhills.

Plus or 29

We offer the Rocker as a 29er with clearance for up to 2.4 tires, or as a 27.5-plus with clearance for tires up to 2.8. Because we believe in options. The 29 is faster, lighter and offers lower rolling resistance and tighter steering response. The Plus offers more grip, more comfort and better balance on rough trails at low speeds.

Groovy Guides

Hose lines on a beautifully shaped bike frame are kind of like those overhead power lines that ruin your view of the sky: they are butt ugly and could easily be hidden with some effort. Our Groovy Guides integrate the rear brake line into the tube, providing a clean look while also offering easier access than internal cable routing. Our 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. One more example of how we sweat the small details to enhance your ride performance.

Lifetime warranty

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.

High Class Suffer Machine

I'm coming from an early 90's 26" SS with rim brakes, so the Spot Rocker, with its wagon wheels, dropper post and disk brakes seems like a completely luxurious experience. That is, except for the suffering. That's still there.

I'm extremely happy with the bike, it's met and exceeded all of my expectations and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to suffer in style.

It rocks!!

Got a sc blur tr, and wanted to try hardtails. So i got this wonderful Rocker and setted it up as SS 29er, with xt brakes. Lightweight, climbs well, feels confident on decents. It pedals efficiently, cant really feel the flex when i stand and crank hard, and yet on descents and drops it felt very compliant. It is definitely a fast and fun bike. Once set up properly, the ss belt setup is a take-and-go ride bike, without the need to lube, and it provides a different riding experience from having gears. Would probably set it up geared someday to try it out too.

Great bike!

Prepare to be social on this bike - that red belt gets a lot of attention!

Maybe it just happens to fit me really well, but this bike is just so well balanced and responsive. I have both wheelsets - the 27.5+ wheels are so much fun, but the XC 29ers are very quick. I've experimented with different gearing, too, but it turns out Spot know what they're doing with the standard setup :)

I didn't like the stock brakes, but that's entirely a personal preference, and the external tucked-away brake line routing made swapping them a quick job.

Very happy with this thing - would sell other kidney and buy again.

Spot Rocker (11 speed with 27.5/2.8 tires)

Built this frame up with the components from my Santa Cruz Chameleon. My first impressions are very positive. The bike is very light and slightly stiffer compared to my ALUX Chameleon. The bike also feels smaller than the same size chameleon. Very nimble and responsive. The only grip is how the rear brake caliper bolt is a little tricky to get to - but not enough to be a deal-breaker.
