SPECIALIZED CRUX 5 COMP

The Specialized Crux 5 is designed for those who want the maximum in gravel competitions. Born from the platform of the fastest gravel race bike ever made, it combines extreme lightness, aerodynamic efficiency and riding dynamics that recall those of a high-performance road bike.

The frame in FACT 10r carbon, weighing just 897 grams, guarantees an exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio, offering immediate acceleration, steering precision and great comfort over long distances. The Rider First Engineered™ geometry maintains the same dynamic behavior in every size, making the Crux an extremely balanced and responsive bike.

The build with electronic drivetrain SRAM Rival AXS XPLR with 13 speeds offers fast and precise shifting, while the 10-46T cassette ensures a wide range of gears to tackle demanding climbs and fast sections. SRAM Rival E1 hydraulic brakes complete a modern, reliable drivetrain designed for gravel racing.

The wheels DT Swiss G500 Tubeless Ready, paired with the tires Specialized Pathfinder 700x45, guarantee high smoothness, stability and traction on any surface.

With a claimed weight of just 8.89 kg, the Specialized Crux 5 represents one of the best gravel racing bicycles for those who desire top-level performance, wireless technology, and maximum efficiency.
