Specialized Diverge E5 Elite Disc Gravel Bike 2022
The Specialized Diverge E5 Elite Disc Gravel Bike partners a light, lively and robust aluminium frame with a full carbon fork to guarantee an energetic, positive ride experience when tackling fast rides across the trails. The longer and slacker geometry places the rider in a comfortable and composed position, while generous clearance for broad tyres, whether using 700c or 650b sized wheels, grants the opportunity for heightened traction and control on rougher tracks.
Luggage rack, bottle and nutrition bag mounting points situated across the frameset are a great help during the longest trips, and mudguard attachment bosses mean that complete weather protection is possible when the heavens open. Strong wheels manage the harshest surfaces with aplomb and are propelled by a wide-ranging, crisp-shifting Shimano 2×10-speed gear configuration. Hydraulic disc brakes are enlisted for the stopping duties and carry these out with power and control in all conditions.
