Specialized Diverge Expert Carbon Road Bike 2017
Ready for uncharted territory, the Specialized Diverge Expert Carbon Road Bike 2017 offers comfort and performance. With its unique bottom bracket height and front rake angle, the Diverge performs confidently and smoothly across any terrain. Meanwhile, the high-end FACT 10r carbon frame and fork provide both efficiency and comfort for long adventures in the saddle.
When you are riding on adverse roads, gearing is of the utmost importance. This is why Specialized have opted for Shimano's 11-speed Ultegra groupset and the FSA SL-K Light crankset. This combination is ideal for tough terrain as the smooth shifting and the 11-32t cassette on the rear gives you that extra push to get up and over the toughest of climbs.
Shimano's Shimano BR-785 hydraulic disc brakes on the front and rear provide confidence-inspiring stopping power; perfect for when the road surface is less than smooth and the durable Roubaix Pro tyres ensure grip when the conditions are at their worst.
Features:
The Specialized FACT 10r carbon frame and fork combine the lightweight performance and compliance of our top-end carbon production methods with the vibration damping of Zertz inserts to smooth out even the harshest roads and provide confident and predictable handling.
AXIS 4.0 Disc wheels provide plenty of control and performance in a bulletproof package, while the Roubaix Pro tyres with Blackbelt protection keep flats at bay over rough terrain.
The FSA SL-K Light couples seamless shift quality with excellent power transfer to form a durable and reliable package that'll last for years.
