Read our Specialized Allez review. The defining feature of the Specialized Roubaix is the 'future shock' front suspension which promises a smoother, more comfortable ride. It comes with 20mm of travel, which can be adjusted with a dial above the stem on the higher-end options. This initial future shock was released in as part of the lineup, and the newest version has an improved system that is more aesthetically pleasing. The chassis has become more aerodynamic - even more so than the Tarmac SL6 by seconds , and it's lighter than the Venge.
As well as having room for 33mm tyres for added comfort. All models now come with a D-shaped 'Pave' seatpost that aims to reducing vibration whilst also being aerodynamic. You could say that it was designed with the cobbles of the spring classics in mind.
Like the Roubaix, the Diverge comes with a 'future shock' suspension spring at the front with 20mm of axial compliance and a hydraulic damper. The brand made some additional alterations to further prepare the Diverge for off-road terrain, notably adding the capability to spec b wheels the bikes come with c wheels which can be swapped out and a dropper seat post on the most expensive versions.
The Diverge has the brand's most progressive geometry for a drop-bar bike by keeping a low bottom bracket but increasing the frame's reach. They've also introduced a slacker head tube and a longer offset fork, while speccing the bike with shorter stems for snapping steering - all together this creates a more stable ride off-road.
For gravel riding the c wheels are best fitted with 38c tyres use lower volume for the road - according to the brand - but b wheels are best suited to 45c tyres, making them a better option for someone who wants the additional suspension effect afforded by wider volume tyres.
The dropper seat post means the rider can drop the post to get low and further back on to help control on descents. The top end versions come with a single chainring, again aligning it closer to off-road duties by cutting down on maintenance. Borrowing SWAT internal storage from the Specialized Stumpy the Diverge has space in its down tube to load up with tools, spare inner tubes and nutrition.
It also has plenty of rack mounts on the fork and top tube for longer adventures. But for those after a mixed terrain bike that's more appropriately designed for touring, there's the Specialized Sequoia review here with plenty of capacity for bike packing equipment, whilst the Specialized AWOL comes with mounts and racks just as suited to city rides as long distance adventures.
Read our Specialized Diverge Comp review. The Specialized CruX is a fully-fledged cyclocross race bike. Rider First engineering means the layup is adjusted to suit the requirements of average rider weight at each size whilst the bridgeless rear stay remains, aiding mud clearance.
To help fling the bike onto your shoulder when hopping off to clear barriers, the frame design features a large opening at the front triangle and the top tube has a flat bottom.
