Detail Information
The Specialized Chisel in Gloss Dolomite Metallic redefines what's possible for alloy mountain bikes. As the lightest alloy full suspension cross-country bike in the world, the Chisel is engineered to deliver elite-level speed, efficiency and capability without the premium price of carbon. Inspired directly by the World Cup-winning Epic 8, it brings race-proven technology to riders chasing podiums, personal bests and unforgettable trail adventures.
SPEED METAL
At the heart of the Chisel is Specialized's revolutionary D'Aluisio Smartweld hydroformed alloy frame, delivering a frameset that's 18.4% lighter than its closest competitor. Advanced hydroformed tubing with continuously varied wall thicknesses places stiffness exactly where it's needed for explosive acceleration while maintaining compliance for comfort and control over rough terrain.
World Cup-Inspired Suspension
Borrowing its geometry and suspension kinematics directly from the Specialized Epic 8, the Chisel features 110mm of Ride Dynamics-tuned rear suspension, delivering remarkable traction, control and pedalling efficiency. A RockShox Recon 120mm suspension fork with Motion Control damping complements the rear suspension, providing confident handling across technical climbs, descents and fast XC race courses.
Maximum Pedalling Efficiency
Every aspect of the Chisel has been designed to maximise speed. A steep seat tube angle positions the rider for optimal power transfer, while carefully tuned anti-squat characteristics minimise pedal bob, ensuring every watt drives the bike forward efficiently. Whether climbing steep singletrack or sprinting out of corners, the Chisel rewards every pedal stroke.
Advanced Flex Stay Design
The Chisel incorporates an advanced flex stay rear suspension design, eliminating the additional pivots found on many traditional suspension systems. This innovative construction reduces weight, lowers maintenance requirements and improves suspension sensitivity while maintaining exceptional frame stiffness and durability.
Premium Trail Components
The bike is equipped with a RockShox Recon 120mm fork, a Ride Dynamics-tuned X-Fusion rear shock, a reliable SRAM S200 12-speed drivetrain, and a TranzX dropper seatpost, giving riders the confidence to tackle everything from XC race tracks to technical trail networks.
Finished in an elegant Gloss Dolomite Metallic colourway, the Specialized Chisel combines race-winning technology with premium styling for riders who demand maximum performance from every ride.
