There's no better time to get out and hit the trail than right now, and with a bike like the Pitch Comp 27.5, this is more true than ever. It features a hardtail design that makes it efficient at climbing and rolling on the flats, while being sturdy and dependable on descents. Meanwhile, our Sport Trail 27.5 Geometry has been paired with an aluminum construction to provide plenty of comfort and confidence over nearly any kind of terrain. And to make sure that your investment in dirt is going to last for the long haul, we've thoughtfully selected components that place a focus on durability and performance. Get ready to roll, the dirt is calling.
  • The frame is constructed from lightweight A1 Premium Aluminum in order to provide a compliant, durable platform to support our acclaimed Sport Trail 27.5 Geometry. Combined, you get a bike that's extremely versatile, making it equally capable on the climbs and descents.
  • Custom SR Suntour 27.5 fork features our Multi-Circuit Damping technology to eliminate any "pogo" effect by delivering 80/100mm (size-specific) of hydraulic damped suspension and rebound that smooths out rough terrain.
  • The smooth-shifting 9-speed Shimano Acera rear derailleur, combined with an 11-34t cassette, has the bike ready to climb just as well as it rolls along the flats.

Great bike, awesome Value.

I bought this bike in 2019 and still ride it today. If you find yourself in front of one and it's for sale, go for it, you won't be disappointed.

Great bike!

Great bike, especially if you want to start xc racing. I've had the bike for about 4 years now and i'm starting to get problems sadly. It's been though so much. I ride 10 miles to and from school every day and it does an excellent job! On the trail it is amazing! The mobility on it is fantastic. It's lightweight and is great for learning tricks!

Would Recommend?
Yes!

Awesome bike, and a question

I've been riding this bike for about a year and a half now and I've had an absolute blast every time, the only damage has been a few scuffs and a bent derailuer hanger, but that was from hard riding. My question is, what is the maximum total fork length I can put on this bike? I'm looking to finally make some upgrades and thats one of them, and I would rather not break my frame because my fork broke through

Must Upgrade

I abused this product. I replaced almost everything too I put a rockshox gold fork, sram 11 speed drivetrain, new cockpit, new grips and PEDALS the original pedals sucked. Also went tubleless. In conclusion, with these changes you can do anything with this bike.

Just get it.

I purchased this bicycle to replace an aging Raleigh that had pretty much seen its last days. When I rode the bicycle at the store, I was comparing it to a Marlin. There was really no comparison. The bike was a little more money than I wanted to spend, but getting onto it felt like getting into the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon compared to my old bicycle. It shifted super smooth and accelerated really fast. I love the gray paint accented with the zombie green highlights. The dealer gave me a bit of a discount because I asked nicely. If you see this bicycle for sale I strongly recommend purchasing it. It's hard for me to believe this is an entry-level mountain bike. Because I Feel Like A Champion when riding it.

this bike is okay

I have this bike and tried to maintain it. I like that it has a strong frame and rims. The drive train is terrible, shocks are bad and goose neck was bad. For the money it is a good bike.

Proud to own it

I've used this bike almost every weekend to go riding out on all sorts of trails. It is an amzing hardtail and I love to ride it. It gives you a confident feel on the trail that lets you keep pushing on

I was never really a fan of specialized, that changed when I

This bike is a smooth ride all the way around the board from roll to looks. I have no regrets about the money I used to acquire the pitch comp and I am one who doesn't have a lot of money. You want a really good mountain bike at a really good price, you buy this bike.

I definitely recommend this bike.

I just bought the Pitch Comp and I totally love it. It runs very smooth, it's very light and perfect for off-roading.

i would totally buy again

this bike is (in my opinion) the best starter bike on the market! it comes with everything you need at a great price so you have money to upgrade as you go. I'm located in south Florida so we have sandy tails and the tires go right through. it handles great and is agile. The seat is comfortable and brakes work okay (I upgraded mine). if you are going to buy a beginner mountain bike or even an intermediate one. this is the bike to buy.
