Key highlights
hydroformed, size-tuned tubes bring frame weight down to 1,350g while keeping the stiffness needed for hard XC efforts.
a slack-for-its-class head angle and longer reach give the Chisel confident, race-ready handling on modern cross-country trails.
Motion Control damper and Solo Air spring deliver 100mm of travel (80mm on size XS) for a precise, controlled front end.
a wide-range 11-50t cassette means one chainring covers everything from fire-road spinning to steep climbs.
