When you jump from the steel-framed Hardrocks to the heat-treated 7005 aluminum frameset, you leave a lot of weight behind. The spear and butterfly gussets used on the 1997 Specialized HardRock AX come from technology developed for our high-end M2 composite frames to give you strength and stiffness that's quietly amazing.
