The 2022 Chisel Comp stands as our premium alloy hardtail, ready for the Tour Aotearoa, rail-trail, Timber Trail and everyday fun on two-wheels.
How do we bring pro-level performance down to a price more riders can afford? D'Aluisio Smartweld Technology, that's how. Smartweld allows us to create the most consistent, high-strength welds possible while taking full advantage of compliant, hydroformed alloy tubes. The result? One of the lightest alloy hardtail frames out there at 1,350g, which also features size-tuned stiffness.
The Chisel also houses all of the modern features that you expect from an XC bike, like a progressive cross-country 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.
