The Specialized Chisel Mountain Bike is the lightest, fastest alloy full suspension bike in the World.
At 18.4% lighter than its nearest competitor and sharing the geometry and kinematics of the Specialized World Cup-ready Epic 8 mountain bike, the all-new Specialized Chisel Full Suspension Mountain Bike offers unparalleled performance. Whether you're racing on a track or enjoying solo rides on local trails, the Chisel delivers a ride you can feel.
SPEED METAL: Thanks to D’Aluisio Smartweld technology, the Chisel features the lightest aluminium XC frameset in its class. Each frame tube is meticulously shaped and varies in wall thickness to provide stiffness where needed for efficiency and compliance for comfort and control.
UNMATCHED CAPABILITY: The Chisel's 110mm of Ride Dynamics tuned suspension is directly inspired by the Epic 8, the World Cup race machine. Incorporating advanced suspension kinematics and progressive geometry from the Epic 8, the Chisel is designed to handle varied terrain with confidence and speed.
INCREDIBLE EFFICIENCY: The Chisel boasts exceptional pedaling efficiency, utilising the same geometry and kinematics as the Specialized World Cup racing Epic 8 platform. The steep seat tube angle places the rider in an optimal pedaling position, while honed anti-squat features reduce pedal-bob, ensuring every watt of power is translated into forward motion.
SMOOTHER IS FASTER: The Chisel's flex stay rear end offers class-leading suspension performance without the additional weight and maintenance of traditional pivot designs. Extensive testing has proven that the Chisel achieves the efficiency, control, and lightweight benefits of a flex stay design, traditionally seen on carbon bikes, in an advanced alloy frame.
HYDROFORMED ALLOY: The Chisel reduces weight with a one-piece hydroformed seat tube that integrates the seat tube pivot, main pivot, and bottom bracket shell. Unlike traditional designs where these components are welded on separately, the Chisel's streamlined construction enhances its performance and durability.
