Overview
About this bike
Specialized's Big Hit III is all about big mountain riding and taking your skills 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, 200mm RockShox Domain, Fox Van RC 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 Gravity cranks and reliable SRAM shifting. Plus, this big rig offers the incredible stopping power of Avid discs with a big 8-inch rotor up front.
