Chisel Comp EVO (2025)

The world's lightest and fastest alloy full - suspension bike has been completely revamped with the ultra - capable EVO build. It's still 18.4% lighter than its closest rival. Taking geometry and kinematics from the Epic 8 EVO, the all - new Chisel Comp EVO offers a tangible performance boost, perfect for an ultimate downcountry ride. SPEED METAL: Thanks to D’Aluisio Smartweld technology, it has the lightest aluminum XC frameset in its class. Each frame tube has variable wall thicknesses and shapes, providing stiffness for efficiency and compliance for comfort and control. UNMATCHED CAPABILITY: With a 130mm travel up front and a host of trail - ready features, the Chisel EVO handles rough trails with ease. Advanced suspension kinematics, Ride Dynamics tuned suspension, and progressive geometry make it confident and fast on long rides. INCREDIBLE EFFICIENCY: It's the most efficient pedaling bike in its class, using the geometry and kinematics of the Epic 8 EVO platform. The steep seat tube helps you pedal efficiently, and reduced pedal - bob means every watt is converted into forward motion. SMOOTHER IS FASTER: A flex stay rear end offers class - leading suspension performance, saving weight and reducing maintenance. Extensive testing shows it achieves great efficiency, control, and lightness in an alloy frame. HYDROFORMED ALLOY: The one - piece hydroformed seat tube integrates multiple components, shaving off extra weight. In contrast, traditional bikes have welded - on parts. Specs include D’Aluisio Smartweld hydroformed tubes, flip chip geo adjust, 110mm travel, FOX 34 Performance Elite 130mm with Grip 2 damper, Ride Dynamics Tuned FOX FLOAT Performance rear shock, TranzX dropper post (100mm - 170mm), SRAM GX Eagle Rear derailleur, SRAM G2 RS 4 - piston brakes, Specialized Purgatory Grid T9 tire (front), Specialized Ground Control Grid T7 tire (rear), and 20mm Rise Handlebars.

Using the Chisel Comp EVO is a breeze. Just hop on, adjust the TranzX dropper post according to your riding needs, and you're ready to hit the trails. When riding on rough terrain, take advantage of the 130mm travel up front and the advanced suspension to smooth out bumps. Here are some things to keep in mind. Before each ride, check the tire pressure of the Specialized Purgatory Grid T9 front tire and the Specialized Ground Control Grid T7 rear tire. Also, make sure the brakes, like the SRAM G2 RS 4 - piston brakes, are working properly. For maintenance, clean the bike after each muddy ride. Lubricate the chain regularly, especially the SRAM GX Eagle Rear derailleur, to ensure smooth shifting. Check the hydroformed alloy frame for any signs of damage. And don't forget to service the FOX 34 Performance Elite fork and the Ride Dynamics Tuned FOX FLOAT Performance rear shock as recommended by the manufacturer.
