- The all-new Specialized Chisel is a lightweight alloy XC whip that’s tech-heavy & wallet-friendly. In this video we take a look at the bike and offer our first ride impressions.
Head on over to www.bikenetwork.co.za for more reviews, industry news, race coverage et al
Hey everyone. Apologies for the sporadic audio oopsies. The idea behind this video is to give you some ride impressions of the bike on the same day that Specialized launches it. We had a very short window to ride and shoot and publish before the bike was released and in our haste we positioned the lapel mic incorrectly. Peace.
This bike is a bargain - basically an alu epic with a decent shimano slx drivetrain.
Well done Spez.
Great review, jut waiting to get it delivered to my local store! I cycle a Tarmac SL8 and a Gravel Diverge STR, and wanting to re-statr also XC this CHISEL is a top offer to get back on trails. Minute 1:20, is that a wolf behind you? 😂😂
Finally we can ride it in the open ❤🎉
Looks good. But I will wait for Chisel Evo with 130mm/120mm travel.
Chevo
Are they planning to release it?
@@filip12327 ? really. Any news abou it?
Already sent an email all over looking for the frame option. Winning for this
just bought one!
No more chisel hardtail?
I think you should point out that this is the Chisel F(ull) S(uspension), next to the Chisel HT.
Cute Wolf!
That’s the top model your riding?
Yes, so far
Can I ask how tall you are, I have the hardtail version but interested in sizing up for this. Im 183cm.
I'm 1.74m - Myles
Its almost perfect its just a little heavy no? Its not better to buy a little older used carbon epic?
The Chisel has better geometry (waaaaay better) than the previous generations Epic
@@bikenetwork_SA ok thanks for the comment, better than a 2023?
I believe it's about 28 lbs. Top end fs race bikes are about 24 to 26 lbs., but they cost $6k to $14k.
Price bro????
What would be fast rolling tires ?
Many brands make faster rolling XC tyres. They'd be lighter with a lower profile tread pattern.
Tubeless tyres?
Yes
Mate! Whats up with the audio at 2min, suddenly super loud in the pov…. Come on!
Yea. Apologies for that. It was a tight deadline to make the video before the bike was released. We literally had 3 hours to do it and yes - we had an audio issue.
