Specialized Rockhopper 1998

[REKIBorter]

This is currently Mrs Rekis bike but it does fit me if needed. We have had this from new and is still totaly original. The only replacement part is the girlie fat arsed saddle. Not the fanciest bike to be featured on Retrobike but certainly one of the most honest. The Nitanium steel frame is very pingy and comfortable to ride.

I have one of those. Not in quite as good condition but its not bad. How much are these worth now? I'm looking to replace it and wondered if I could raise some extra cash selling it to an enthusiast.

These Rock Hoppers don't half look good compared to the old 88 models and this one looks really well cared for ..
