SPECIALIZED CHISEL 2025

The Lightest, Fastest Alloy Full Suspension Bike in the World.
18.4% lighter than the closest competitor and sharing geometry
and kinematics from our World Cup ready Epic 8 mountain bike, the
all-new Chisel delivers performance you can feel—whether youre
racing between the tape or ripping solo hot laps on local
trails.SPEED METAL: Thanks to DAluisio Smartweld, the
Chisel boasts the lightest aluminum XC frameset in its class.
Each highly-manipulated frame tube features continuously-varied
wall thicknesses and shaping that deliver stiffness where you
need it - for efficiency - and ride-smoothing compliance where
you want it - for comfort and optimal control.UNMATCHED
CAPABILITY: With 110mm of Ride Dynamics tuned suspension, the
high performance pedigree of Chisel can be traced directly to the
Epic 8, our World Cup race machine. DNA from the Epic 8s
advanced suspension kinematics, Ride Dynamics tuned suspension,
and progressive geometry honed on technical World Cup courses can
all be found in the Chisel, making it more than capable of
handling varied terrain with confidence and speed.
INCREDIBLE EFFICIENCY: Chisel is the most efficient pedaling
bike in its class, thanks to the utilization of geometry and
kinematics that went into our World Cup racing Epic 8 platform.
The steep seat tube positions the rider in the optimal pedaling
position. Honed anti-squat reduces pedal-bob. Put it together and
Chisel translates every watt applied to the pedals into maximum
forward motion.SMOOTHER IS FASTER: We engineered a flex
stay rear end for class-leading suspension performance, while
eliminating the extra weight and maintenance associated with
pivots required in a traditional design. More common on carbon
bikes, extensive field and lab testing prove that Chisel has
achieved the impossible—the efficiency, control, and light-weight
of a flex stay design, in advanced alloy.HYDROFORMED
ALLOY: Chisel shaves extra material and weight with a one-piece
hydroformed seat tube that integrates the seat tube pivot, main
pivot, and BB shell. On a more traditional bike, the seat tube is
typically just a tube with pivots and BB shell welded on.
