SPECIALIZED CHISEL HARDTAIL COMP

Specialized Chisel Hardtail Comp: Pro-Level XC Performance

We asked ourselves, “How do we bring pro-level performance down to a price more riders can afford?” The answer is the SPECIALIZED CHISEL HARDTAIL COMP with D’Aluisio Smartweld Technology. This $\text{Mountain Bike}$ is no compromise, offering a race-ready package perfect for tackling technical trails or competitive cross-country in places like Cycling in Dubai.

Innovation: D’Aluisio Smartweld M5 Alloy

Smartweld Technology allows us to create the most consistent, high-strength welds possible while taking full advantage of compliant, hydroformed alloy tubes. As a result, the frame is one of the lightest alloy hardtails out there at just $1,350\text{g}$, and it also features size-tuned stiffness.

The SPECIALIZED CHISEL HARDTAIL COMP also houses all of the modern features you expect from a premium $\text{XC}$ Hardtail Bike:

• Progressive $\text{XC}$ Geometry: Features a $68\text{-degree}$ headtube angle and a longer reach for stability and speed.
• Modern Standards: Includes internal cable routing, a threaded $\text{BSA}$ bottom bracket, $\text{Boost}$ spacing, and $30.9\text{mm}$ dropper post compatibility.
• Drivetrain: $\text{1x-only}$ drivetrain design for simplicity and efficiency.

Chisel Comp Build: Ready for the Race

The Chisel Hardtail Comp delivers exceptional value and trail capability:

• Suspension: The RockShox Judy Gold fork handles suspension duties with a Motion Control damper, Solo Air spring, and $100\text{mm}$ of travel (or $80\text{mm}$ on $\text{XS}$), providing predictable front-end control.
• Drivetrain: A full SRAM $\text{NX}$ Eagle 12-speed groupset offers massive gear range with an $11\text{-50t}$ cassette and reliable shifting.
• Brakes: $\text{SRAM Level T}$ hydraulic disc brakes provide confident stopping power with $2\text{-Piston Calipers}$ and $\text{Centerline Rotors}$.
• Wheels: Specialized Alloy rims are hookless and $\text{Tubeless Ready}$ with a $25\text{mm}$ inner width, paired with Specialized Fast Trak tires for quick rolling and control.
