2019 Specialized Ruby Comp Womens Road Bike - Gloss/Sunset/Acid Kiwi

With the Ruby Comp, you get next-level comfort from a design that's nothing short of revolutionary.

The frame is among the lightest that Specialized have ever made, and it's been constructed from a superlative FACT 10r carbon fibre. Its stiffness levels are excellent, and compared to the previous SL4, you'll experience a whole new, faster, and more efficient geometry. The same fit, feel, and position that we've all come to love from the SL4's Women's Endurance Geometry has been maintained through superb engineering.

The Future Shock suspension is, essentially, a piston in the head tube with 20mm of travel. This technology was developed in partnership with McLaren Applied Technologies, and the result of this are a host of drastic performance improvements, namely in the vertical compliance department. Focusing on vertical compliance, instead of fork splay, meant that smoothness, speed, and comfort could be improved in one fell swoop. Of all the bikes tested with the Rolling Efficiency Model, the new Ruby outperforms anything on the market.

Lastly, it is spec'd with a host of components that blur the lines between steadfast reliability and outright performance, like Shimano Ultegra 11-speed shifting, powerful Shimano Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes, svelte and sturdy DT R470 Disc wheels, and a women's-specific saddle that provides all-day comfort.

• Featuring a Rider-First Engineered™ design that ensures every frame size has the same legendary responsiveness and smooth ride quality that you'd expect from a Ruby. The FACT 10r frameset holds its own with the highest-end carbon offerings, with the ideal blend of light overall weight and targeted stiffness, while the all-new Future Shock "suspension" system at the cockpit delivers a revolutionary degree of comfort and control.
• Shimano's no-fuss Ultegra shifting with hydraulic disc brakes provides precise shifting and plenty of stopping power.
• DT R470 Disc wheels feature reliable, sealed cartridge hubs, and 24 front and rear spokes that keeps weight low and durability high.
