Just a few weeks ago we saw for the first time what will be RockRider's new flagship in full suspension, the RockRider 940s. A completely renewed mountain bike that could be one of the models of the year when it is presented. At the moment we have been able to see up close with which is racing one of the revelations of 2022, Savilia Blunk.

This RockRider 940s is a real highlight for Decathlon. It debuts a completely new frame that meets all the current trends of the most advanced XC/XCM.

Savilia Blunk's RockRider 940s in detail

At 23 years old, Savilia Blunk was one of the surprises of last season in the XC World Cup. The American made her debut in the elite category, won the U.S. national championship and placed in the top 10 in several World Cup races. In 2023, she has signed with the RockRider Racing Team and is one of the team's protagonists. This is the new RockRider 940s she is racing this season.
