6’5 240 and i ordered an xl. The i went into the soecialized store and they said ur an xxl. So i got the xxl. Rockhopper expert. Wonder if mine will have those seperated tubes on the top tube like urs
@@aleksmikeincolor487 yup! Just got it today i like the size . I did order a 50 mm rise deity handlebars and the specialized trail stem. To make me sit a little more upright. Preciate you
@@jayou1987 also if you have big feet like me have big feet like me, you might want to changed the stock pedels for a large size. Crankbrothers make a large size pedals called stamp 1. I've seen them on Amazon
@@aleksmikeincolor487 yep ! I got the deity deftraps which are pretty big. Was gonna get the raceface chester but theyre small. Did you put the new stem and handlebar on yet? Did you sit up more?
I would say the Rockrider is a better bike comparing to the Rockhopper both are pretty much on a budget side. The components on the Rockrider are better because you're gonna get shamano and the drive train is gonna be better with the chain ring. The Rockrider has hydraulic brakes which my in my opinion is better. My bike bike has mechanical breaks

At 6'5 you will be better off with the XXL size. I'm 6'4 and mine is XXL. The frame on my bike , the expert and the comp are the same

Very nice bike I want
Thank you for the compliment on my bike. You should get one. Thanks for watching. Much appreciated.
I want to buy and I don't know what to choose between the specialized Rockhopper 2022 and the Rockrider Explore 520
