Specialized Chisel HT Cross Country Mountain Bike
The Specialized Chisel HT is built to tackle modern cross-country trails with exceptional speed and efficiency. Sharing many of the same cutting-edge features as its Epic Hardtail sibling, the Chisel offers pro-level performance at a more accessible price point, making it one of the most capable and efficient alloy hardtails available today.
Key Benefits for Riders
Efficient and Responsive Design
The Chisel is designed with Progressive XC Geometry that features a 68-degree headtube angle and a longer reach, ensuring quick handling and stability at higher speeds. Whether you’re racing or riding for fun, this geometry maximizes efficiency and control on cross-country courses, allowing for confident cornering and quick reactions to any terrain.
Lightweight Performance with Durable Construction
Thanks to D'Aluisio Smartweld Technology, the Chisel’s frame is not only one of the lightest alloy hardtail frames at 1,350g, but it also features high-strength welds that improve overall durability. The hydroformed alloy tubes are designed to provide size-tuned stiffness, making the bike more efficient and responsive to rider input while maintaining comfort and control on varied trails.
Advanced Suspension for Smooth Handling
The Chisel is equipped with a RockShox Judy Silver fork that offers 100mm of travel (80mm for XS) and a TurnKey damper for smooth, responsive suspension performance. This fork allows riders to maintain control over rough terrain, enhancing the overall stability of the ride while keeping weight low and performance high.
Precision Shifting and Reliable Braking
With the SRAM SX Eagle 1x12-speed drivetrain, riders will experience precise and efficient shifting across a wide range of gears, perfect for tackling both steep climbs and fast descents. Paired with SRAM Level T hydraulic disc brakes, the Chisel ensures reliable stopping power, giving you confidence in any riding conditions, from technical descents to tight corners.
Enhanced Comfort and Versatility
The Chisel’s compatibility with a 30.9mm dropper post and its internal cable routing system provide a clean, sleek look while offering more options for customization. The alloy XC minirise handlebars ensure a comfortable and responsive grip, allowing riders to maintain control over extended rides and technical sections.
Why Choose the Specialized Chisel HT?
The Chisel HT is perfect for riders who want the performance of a pro-level XC bike but at a more budget-friendly price. Whether you’re an avid racer or a weekend trail enthusiast, the Chisel’s lightweight, efficient design, advanced suspension, and responsive drivetrain make it a great choice for riders seeking speed and control on the toughest trails.
