This thing called 'gravel riding' is still evolving. The new Diverge Expert EVO is designed to get aggressive, to push the boundaries of what was thought possible on a gravel bike. With flat bars and geometry even more progressive then the new drop bar Diverge you better hang onto your flannel. The reach has been significantly increased, the head tube slackened and the bottom bracket lowered to put you 'in' the bike for a super planted feeling. From sending technical single track to ripping flowing fire road descents, if you're looking for a partner to take your gravel riding to new levels, nothing's faster, more fun, or rowdier than the Diverge EVO.

With a Premium E5 Aluminium frame and the latest Future Shock 2.0 with an adjustable hydraulic damper offering 20mm of travel, the Diverge Expert E5 is uniquely qualified to tackle aggressive trails at high speed. The bike’s build is MTB inspired, with SRAM GX Eagle 1x12 shifting and extra stopping power thanks to SRAM Level TLM brakes. A TranzX dropper post is standard, as well as Specialized's latest gravel tyre designed for incredible traction, the new Rhombus Pro 42mm, on DT Swiss G540 alloy wheels.

• A Premium E5 Aluminium frame provides a stiff, light, and durable platform. When mated to a full carbon FACT fork, the Diverge EVO becomes a light, lively and versatile bike ready to tackle the most technical gravel and dirt as aggressively as you could wish.
• Speed, control and confidence make Future Shock 1.5 the ideal technology for the gravel rider. With 20mm of axial compliance, Future Shock 1.5 is progressively tuned specifically for gravel riding. This keeps you confident and in control, able to keep the power down and stay off the brakes over rough dirt roads and in thick loose gravel, all while keeping your hands, arms and neck fresh.
• With the Diverge EVO, Specialized took their new progressive gravel geometry to new levels. They’ve lengthened the frame 30mm over a drop bar Diverge (Size Medium), lowered the bottom bracket and slackened the head tube. This gives the Diverge EVO more confidence over technical terrain while keeping the cockpit comfortable with flat bars. It also allows for a short stem to make all that stability feel nimble and quick at the bars.
• Nothing unlocks a bike’s capability like tyre clearance, so the Diverge EVO was given a whopping 47mm of tyre clearance with a 700c wheel and 2.1” with a 650b wheel. Thanks to a drive side chain stay utilising a machined alloy beam behind the chain rings they’ve created clearance without using a fragile dropped chain stay design or increasing chain stay length.
