With Future Shock suspension at both the front and rear, the new Specialized Diverge STR Gravel Bike offers unmatched compliance without compromise. By suspending the rider rather than the bike, Future Shock technology enhances control and efficiency while reducing fatigue, allowing you to ride further and faster over rough terrain. Unlike other suspension systems, the Diverge STR maintains a lightweight, responsive, and efficient performance without sluggish pedal response.
The S-Works Diverge STR features a FACT 11r carbon frameset with front and rear Future Shock suspension. It comes equipped with SRAM’s Red eTap AXS Eagle groupset for quick, efficient shifting and a 10-50 cassette to handle any ride. A Quarq power meter helps you optimise your effort. The bike rolls on new, lighter Roval Terra CLX II wheels with 42mm Tracer Pro tyres. Terra carbon bars, an S-Works carbon seatpost, and an S-Works Power with Mirror saddle complete the package, making the Diverge STR the most capable Diverge ever.
Future Shock Technology, with 20mm front and 30mm rear damped, tunable travel, absorbs bump forces to boost control and capability while maintaining the efficiency and responsiveness of a rigid frame. Power transfer is immediate, making the bike light, nimble, and responsive.
The Diverge STR features 30mm of rear travel with hydraulic damping to smooth out rough roads, eliminate "bobbing" under power, and handle big hits without compromising fit or pedaling efficiency. This bike embodies decades of innovation and the "Smoother is Faster" philosophy. The 20mm of adjustable, damped front travel keeps you in control, protecting your hands, arms, and shoulders from rough terrain.
The Diverge STR is designed for ultimate capability and fun, with generous tyre clearance of 47mm on a 700c wheel and 2.1” on a 650B. This makes it the most capable and enjoyable gravel bike Specialized has ever made. Despite adding just 100g compared to the S-Works Diverge frame, it offers unparalleled compliance. Whether climbing, racing, or embarking on long-haul adventures, the Diverge STR does it all faster and smoother without any extra baggage.
