The Chisel Hardtail is among the best aluminum hardtails on the market. Now, for the first time, the folks at Specialized are also rolling out a full-suspension bike with this level of quality. The Chisel Comp Shimano aims to appeal to riders with an attractive price and a sensible design, reaching out to those who typically don't find what they're looking for with Specialized. Specialized is taking no risks when it comes to its bike handling. The moderate geometry data conveys a balanced handling. The sporty riding position allows for very effective pedaling. If you want to hunt Strava-KOMs uphill, the Specialized Chisel Comp Shimano is probably not the right bike for you. A good argument for the Specialized: Such a successful geometry is usually only available if you have deep pockets. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Specialized is behind its products.
