Key Benefits for Riders

Modern XC Geometry for Precision and Control

With Progressive XC Geometry, the Chisel is designed to provide the perfect balance of stability and responsiveness. The 68-degree headtube angle and longer reach ensure confident handling at high speeds, while the efficient design maximizes control on technical trails. Whether you're racing or riding for fun, the Chisel is engineered for precision.

Lightweight and Durable Construction

Thanks to D'Aluisio Smartweld Technology, the Chisel is one of the lightest alloy hardtail frames in its class, weighing just 1,350g. This technology uses hydroformed alloy tubes to create high-strength, compliant welds, providing excellent durability while keeping weight low. The frame features size-tuned stiffness, optimizing performance and comfort.

Efficient Suspension for Smoother Rides

The Chisel is equipped with the RockShox Judy Gold fork, offering 100mm of travel (80mm for XS) with Motion Control damper and Solo Air spring. This suspension ensures smoother handling over rough terrain and improved control, allowing you to stay fast and confident through varying conditions.

Reliable Drivetrain and Braking Performance

The SRAM NX Eagle 1x12-speed drivetrain provides a wide range of gears for tackling both climbs and fast descents with ease. Paired with SRAM Level T hydraulic disc brakes, this setup ensures smooth shifting and reliable stopping power, giving you full control on every ride.

Customizable for Maximum Performance

The Chisel also features compatibility with a 30.9mm dropper post, providing adjustable saddle height for better control on descents. Its internal cable routing keeps the bike clean and efficient, while the threaded bottom bracket offers easier maintenance and better durability.
