Specialized Diverge E5 Comp Disc Gravel 95422-5358 2022

Specialized Diverge E5 Comp Disc Gravel Bike 2022 With its stiff, light and durable alloy frame and partnering carbon fork, the Specialized Diverge E5 Comp Disc Gravel Bike promotes a lively, fun and composed ride when tackling off-road adventures. The fork integrates the Future Shock 1.5 damping unit into its steerer tube to help lower rider fatigue over rougher trails, while a longer and slacker geometry provides increased composure when the going is technical and fast.  Generous frameset-to-tyre clearance affords the opportunity to use broader, more voluminous and grippier rubber whether using 700c or 650b sized wheels. This extra clearance is granted by using a solid, machined driveside chainstay that is stronger and cleaner than the kinked designs used by other brands. There are plenty of luggage, bottle and nutrition bag mounts integrated into the frameset for longer rides, while mudguard attachment points mean that complete weather protection is possible on grizzly days. Light but robust wheels are propelled by a slick-shifting and reliable SRAM Apex 1x11-speed gear configuration, and stopping duties are enlisted to powerful hydraulic disc brakes.
