Specialized Diverge STR Pro Gravel Bike in Red Tint Carbon/Red Sky

With Future Shock suspension front and rear, the new Diverge STR delivers compliance without compromise. By suspending the rider—instead of the bike—Future Shock technology increases control and efficiency while decreasing fatigue, so you’ll be riding farther and faster over chunkier terrain than you believed possible. And the Diverge STR does this without the weight, sluggish pedal response, and inefficiency of other suspension systems.

The Diverge STR Pro starts with Specialized's FACT 11r carbon frameset with front and rear Future Shock suspension. It’s built with SRAM’s Force eTap AXS Eagle groupset for fast, efficient shifting with a 10-50 cassette to ensure you have the gearing to tackle any ride. The bike rolls on the Roval Terra CL wheels with 1.7 inches Tracer Pro tires. Terra carbon bars, an S-Works carbon seatpost, and Power Pro saddle complete the package making the Diverge STR the most capable Diverge ever.

Features:

• By suspending the rider with damped, tunable travel—0.8 inch front/1.2 inches rear—Future Shock Technology absorbs bump forces to boost your control and capability while retaining the efficiency and responsiveness of a rigid frame. Because as far as power transfer goes, it is a rigid frame. Power to the pedals makes the bike jump like a scared cat. You’re efficient, you’re comfortable, you’re in control. Your bike is light, nimble, and responsive.
• The new Diverge doesn’t just have gorgeous lines, it has perfect curves too. Future Shock Rear puts 1.2 inches of rear travel in the ideal path to smooth out rough road. Its hydraulic damping controls travel to eliminate “bobbing” under power and ensure big hits never catapult you from the saddle, all without compromising fit or pedaling efficiency.
• Born from decades of innovation and Specialized's Smoother is Faster philosophy, Future Shock was created to develop bikes that win on cobblestones, but it’s found its purest expression on gravel. It’s 0.8 inch of adjustable, damped front travel that keeps you in control and on target, all while protecting your hands, arms, and shoulders from the battering.
• More capability means more confidence, more confidence means more rides, more rides mean more fun, and it all starts at the contact patch. Nothing unlocks capability like tire clearance, and Specialized are feeling generous. 1.9 inches on a 700c wheel and 2.1” on 650B. Diverge STR is the most capable gravel bike they’ve ever made, so it’s the most fun. They did the math.
