2018 Chisel Expert – 1x

I enjoy riding this bike. I have ridden granite, downhill, x-country, all types of trails. XL size fits me well. Rode it two summers and bottom bracket needs replacement. Also the small chain ring is pretty much worn out (aluminum which is a poor choice of material). To compare, I road a Norco Charger for 3 summers and the both of these components are fine...the chain ring wear is not noticeable. So far all other components are working fine.

Me gusta la compra que he realizado,la chisel expert-x1.

I've been using a Santa Cruz Heckler for the past few months and wanted to own a hardtail. This fit the budget. So far, so good. As of right now I only have 2 days of ownership and about an hour of mostly on road testing with some trails with 1-2ft drops. The day I bought it, I had the tires converted to tubeless. I'm not sure how much this affects the weight or feeling of the bike, but the tires grip well on and off-road. It's incredibly light and nimble. It feels like a road bike, but feels incredibly solid off-road. It's fast, but the top gear is limited for road usage if you find yourself going down hill. That's not where this bike shines though, this thing tears up hills with ease. The only complaint I've had might just be related to the shop that built the bike, but my chain keeps falling off the smallest cog and sliding in between the frame and the last gear. Also, I have already ordered a seat post quick release clamp since it doesn't come with one and plan on scooping up some better pedals ASAP.

Bought my bike in July 2018. This was assembled by a registered Specialized bike mechanic. 7months later and the stem bolts are already corroded. There is also visible signs the paint work is deteriorating in this area as well. Contacted Specialized regarding the warranty over the bike paint and bolts, this was their response: ""The damage showing on your handlebars would be from the stem clamp not being tight enough and the bars have moved in the stem causing this. That type of damage is not to worry about and would be covered by the stem when in position. Also with your bolts, Specialized doesn't cover rust or corrosion on any of our bike/parts."" So if you find damage (even within the first year) their suggestion is to hide it and pretend it was never there. My advice is to read their warranty beforehand and make sure you know what you're signing up to. As I'm getting very little reassurance for my own purchase.

Super light weight, exceptional handling, and most of all FAST. Once on this bike you'll outpace your riding crew with minimal effort on flats and zoom up those climbs that used to have you cursing under your breath. Only complaint would be the stock pedals b/c the raised numbs come off pretty quickly but past that this bike is legit. Enjoy!

Uma verdadeira maquina. Satisfeito com tudo. Bike linda, otima ciclistica, mais leve que muita bike de carbono por ai. Completinha com pedal , pesa 10kg e 500 gramas. Eu tinha uma bicicleta antes dessa, que não tinha nem vontade de pedalar. Hoje meu pedal evoluiu bastante e estou pedalando periodicamente. Deu até motivação. Acoselho comprar.. ela é tao linda, que quando está lavadonha, fico na sala olhando ela. Não é só umaa bike, é uma peça de decoração. Pedal na veia galera!

Ótima bike, sai de uma Stumpjumper Carbono Ht, fui Chisel com um pé atrás por ser de alumínio, mas me surpreendi positivamente. Mas como a turma relatou a respeito da relação dela, fiz uma mudança, antes mesmo de sair da loja, como ela vem com coroa de 30 e K7 de 11x42, fiz a troca por uma coroa de 34 e o K7 coloquei um Sunrace 11/46, ai sim, anda bem e fica leve pra subir. Quem comprar e poder fazer essa mudança não se arrependerá pela aquisição.

Bom custo-beneficio e agilidade surpreendente para uma 29. Adquiri uma 1x11 e primeiras impressoes sao positivas. A bike eh na mao para quem gosta de single track.

A geometria desse quadro é fantástica, rodas com uma ótima rolagem, só não gostei que a coroa é 30t 11/42. Specialized, coloca essa bike com coroa 32t com o sram xd 1150 10/42,ai sim eu daria uma nota 5 estrelas

A Specialized Chisel Expert 1x seria perfeita se tivesse o k7 alterado para um Sram 10-42 para manter uma velocidade final um pouco melhor. Assim como está o comprador fica obrigado a altera-la logo ao comprar o que a torna um pouco cara.
