Specialized Chisel 29" Mountain Bike 2021 - Hardtail MTB
Shaped by everything they’ve learned from 40 years of XC racing, the new Specialized Chisel 29 is a purebred XC race machine that crushes climbs, rockets out of corners, and rips through rock gardens with the speed and efficiency of the highest-performing, most-capable aluminium XC bike available. Turns out carbon isn’t the only way to the top of the podium, after all.
Key Features:
- High-quality alloy frame with dialled XC geometry
- RockShox Judy fork for efficient suspension
- Shimano dual piston hydraulic disc brakes for confident stopping
- Shimano Deore 2x12 speed drivetrain for slick shifting
- Sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL
- Colours: Satin Gloss Smoke/Tarmac Black, Gloss Oasis/Forest Green
- The Specialized Chisel 29 is available with 0% APR finance
The all-new Chisel has been purpose-built to tackle modern cross country trails and race courses with the utmost speed. In fact, it shares many of the same modern features as its Epic Hardtail sibling, but in a more budget-friendly package—making it the most efficient and capable alloy hardtail out there.
This Chisel comes spec'd with Shimano's tried and true Deore 1x12 speed drivetrain and MT400 hydraulic disc brakes, a RockShox Judy Silver fork, and 25mm internal width alloy wheels wrapped in 2.3 Fast Track Control casing tires.
- The Chisel's all-new frame utilizes our D'Aluisio Smartweld technology that moves the hydroformed tube joints away from the areas of the highest stress, making the finished frame's balance of strength, rigidity, and weight more pronounced than any alloy frame in history. This not only makes the Chisel one of the lightest alloy hardtail frames coming in as light as 1,400g, but it also allows for tuned frame stiffness across all sizes.
- The new Chisel also houses all of the modern features that you expect from an XC bike, like Progressive XC Geometry with a 68-degree headtube angle and longer reach, internal cable routing, a threaded bottom bracket, boost spacing, 30.9mm dropper post compatibility, and 1x-only drivetrains.
Occasionally, without notice, manufacturers change product design and/or specifications.
