Specialized Chisel Hardtail

The Chisel Comp is designed specifically for cross-country (XC) riding and racing. Its geometry and lightweight alloy frame make it highly efficient on climbs and fast, flowing singletrack, though it is not intended for aggressive downhill or enduro-style terrain.

Yes, the frame is fully compatible with 30.9mm dropper posts. It also features internal cable routing, which allows for a clean installation if you choose to upgrade.

Yes, the rims are tubeless-ready. While the bike may ship with tubes installed, you can easily convert the setup to tubeless to run lower tire pressures for better traction and puncture protection.

Smartweld technology allows Specialized to move the frame's weld joints away from high-stress areas. This results in a lighter, stiffer frame that offers better power transfer during pedaling while maintaining enough compliance to dampen trail chatter.

The SRAM NX Eagle 1x12 drivetrain features an 11-50t cassette paired with a 32t chainring. This provides a very wide gear range, giving you plenty of low-end torque for steep climbs without sacrificing too much top-end speed on flatter sections.

Yes, the RockShox Judy Gold fork provides 100mm of travel for most sizes, but the XS frame size is equipped with 80mm of travel to maintain proper handling and geometry for smaller riders.
