2026 Specialized Chisel Mountain Bike - Gloss Red Sky

Season:2026

Brand:Specialized

Code:42217775446105

The Specialized Chisel Mountain Bike is the lightest, fastest alloy full-suspension mountain bike in the world, weighing in 18.4% lighter than the competition. Sharing the proven geometry and suspension kinematics of the World Cup-ready Specialized Epic 8, the all-new Chisel is built for riders who demand race-ready cross-country speed and trail-shredding capability in one versatile package. Whether you’re pushing for podiums or ripping hot laps on local singletrack, the Chisel delivers efficiency, control, and durability in a premium alloy build.

  • World’s Lightest Alloy Full-Suspension Frame – Built with D’Aluisio Smartweld hydroformed alloy tubing, featuring continuously varied wall thickness for maximum strength-to-weight efficiency.
  • Race-Bred DNA – Inherits advanced geometry and suspension kinematics directly from the Specialized Epic 8 World Cup race bike, engineered for speed and stability.
  • 110mm Ride Dynamics Tuned Suspension – Efficient and supple rear travel paired with a RockShox Recon 120mm fork with Motion Control Damper and X-Fusion tuned rear shock for balanced performance across technical climbs and fast descents.
  • Flex Stay Rear Triangle – Lightweight, low-maintenance design delivers carbon-like bump compliance in a durable alloy construction.
  • Incredible Pedaling Efficiency – Steep seat tube angle and anti-squat suspension tuning maximise power transfer, reduce pedal bob, and keep you climbing faster.
  • Flip Chip Geometry Adjustment – Fine-tune head tube angle and bottom bracket height for XC racing precision or trail-focused confidence.
  • Trail-Ready Components – Equipped with a TranzX dropper post for on-the-fly seat height adjustment and a reliable SRAM NX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain for wide gear range performance.

The Chisel is the ultimate choice for riders who want the speed of a race bike with the versatility of a trail machine, all in an advanced alloy frame that’s lighter than many carbon competitors. Backed by Specialized’s World Cup-proven technology, the Chisel climbs efficiently, descends with control, and delivers a smooth, responsive ride across all terrain.

Chisel your way to the finish line with a XC warrior that is built for cross-country racing, technical singletrack, endurance mountain biking, and riders who want the lightest alloy full-suspension MTB available.

Perfect for XC racers, endurance riders, and trail enthusiasts, the Specialized Chisel Mountain Bike is built to push your limits, no matter where the trail takes you.
