Cheers for the top marks mate! Yeah the rockhopper is a solid bike with some quality components. Would have prefered the black & white colour scheme but the comp only comes in red! Those white dmr's look aswell!

just bought one of these myself, still aint turned up though. you might want to check the cable routing for your front disk m8 it looks like is gonna be rubbing on the front tyre.
ive already got some panaracer fires in red but not sure if i should fit them? red overkill? needs longer fork 2!!

Cheers for the advice mate!

recently put some air forks on my 09 rockhopper. If your looking to go for longer forks you need to be careful - too long and you can ruin the geometry. Just having better better fork response is a plus and you ll be amazed at the change. Do your homework before splashing the cash!

Mate your Rockhopper is looking sweet with those tires on! The red really looks good against the red frame. The 23" frame looks really long compared to my 19" frame. Let me know if you find any bargains out there on 140mm+ forks cause I am still looking!

Hey dude, mines here now and the clabe is the same as yours was lol. nice bike tho hey, shame mine so ugly its the 23" version snd its not pretty. I was thinking 140 fork 2 probly air sprung.
As for the pedals ive got spds on but the panaracer fires xc pro are tyres (awesome tyres at that) with red walls. google em m8 there the nuts. i put em on today to see and put a picture on here!
PhAntoMAMD replied... on 17 August 2011
Oh yeah also about the pedals I reckon red might be a bit overkill, so maybe something like a set of DMR V8's in white??
PhAntoMAMD replied... on 17 August 2011
Yeah cheers for the comments mate. the cable has been sorted out now and is far away from the wheel. Totally agree on the forks though hey! Definatley need atleast 140mm to make it look more serious!

Nice bike, a bit to xc for me but my mate just got a similar bike but it's White? I think it may be a model down or something from yours though. Yours looks a bit nicer.
PhAntoMAMD replied... on 26 July 2011
Yeah I can tell by your collection of bikes that my rockhopper is way to XC for you! Nice collection of bikes you have there though. Always been a fan of the kona stinky!

Cheers for the top marks! Liking your Orange ride, and the bomber forks look sick! How much did those set you back, cause I would be looking to upgrade the forks in the near future.
