Overview
About this bike
Specialized's Big Hit FSR III is all about creative riding and taking it to the next level. From big drops, to crazy lines, to screaming-fast descents, the Big Hit has you covered. It boasts a burly aluminum frame with 190mm of Specialized's renowned FSR suspension for plush travel, brilliant handling and ground-hugging control. The buttery smooth RockShox Domain fork, Fox DHX rear shock and stout DT Swiss wheels can handle everything from stutter bumps to gnarly hits. And, the Big Hit's drivetrain gives you instant power thanks to the stiff TruVativ cranks and reliable SRAM shifting. Plus, this big rig offers the incredible stopping power of Avid hydraulic discs, too.
