Description
Specialized Diverge STR Comp Gravel Bike 2024 Equipped with Future Shock suspension technology at both the front and rear, the new Diverge STR is a testament to uncompromised compliance. By ingeniously suspending the rider rather than the bike, Future Shock enhances control and efficiency while minimizing rider fatigue, enabling cyclists to venture farther and faster across diverse terrains. Notably, the Diverge STR Expert, built on the FACT 11r carbon frameset, features front and rear Future Shock suspension, paired with SRAM’s Rival eTap AXS Eagle groupset for efficient shifting and a wide gear range. The Future Shock system employs damped, tunable travel of 20mm at the front and 30mm at the rear, absorbing bump forces to enhance control and capability without sacrificing the efficiency and responsiveness characteristic of a rigid frame. The bike responds promptly to pedal power, maintaining efficiency and delivering a nimble and responsive ride. Future Shock Rear, with its 30mm of rear travel, strategically smooths rough roads, preventing "bobbing" under power through hydraulic damping control. This ensures a comfortable ride without compromising the bike's fit or pedaling efficiency. Born from decades of innovation and adhering to the Smoother is Faster philosophy, Future Shock technology was initially crafted for cobblestone victories but found its purest expression on gravel. With 20mm of adjustable, damped front travel, it not only keeps riders in control but also protects hands, arms, and shoulders from the impact of uneven surfaces. Tire clearance is equally generous, boasting 47mm on a 700c wheel and 2.1” on 650B, providing unparalleled capability and confidence for an incredibly enjoyable gravel biking experience. In essence, the Diverge STR stands as the epitome of a gravel bike - dynamic, versatile, and, above all, fun.
