When it comes to gravel, the Diverge does it all from helping you escape, avoid the cars and crowds, or chase the win in a race.
With Campagnolo's new Ekar gravel-specific groupset, the Diverge is quite simply the fastest, most capable - and just maybe the most fun - drop-bar bike Specialized have ever made, delivering a ride that’s quick and lively under power, but stable and confidence inspiring when the terrain gets rough. From Future Shock 2.0 and all-new gravel geometry, to internal storage and category leading tyre clearance, the new Diverge represents everything Specialized have learnt over more than 40 years of riding road, gravel and dirt. The Diverge writes an entirely new chapter in the gravel bike category, so you can dream up entirely new rides. It’s the ultimate getaway vehicle.
With a FACT 9r carbon frame and Future Shock 2.0 the Diverge LTD will have you riding faster and more confidently over more terrain than you ever imagined possible. Campagnolo’s new Ekar 1x13 group puts all your gears in reach with a quick click and Roval Terra CL wheels, mated to Pathfinder Pro 38mm tyres, ensure performance across smooth pavement, dirt roads, and gravel tracks. A Roval Terra seat post keeps the Diverge LTD perfectly balanced for the ultimate ride.
- With a FACT 9r carbon frame, the Diverge LTD frame is incredibly capable and race bike light. Pin it for your local dirt climb KOM, or grind up a giant back country peak, the light and lively Diverge will get you there faster.
- Speed, control and confidence, Future Shock 2.0 is the ultimate technology for the gravel rider. With 20mm of axial compliance and a hydraulic damper, Future Shock 2.0 suspends the rider not the bike. 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. Since Future Shock 2.0’s damper is adjustable, you’ll be ready for the rough stuff and efficient on smooth pavement.
- The new Diverge has the most progressive geometry Specialized have ever created for a drop bar bike, giving riders a capable and stable bike in the dirt, that still feels responsive and nimble on the road. They’ve increased the frame’s reach, introduced a slacker head tube and a longer offset fork. All this creates incredible confidence with a planted feeling in the dirt, while spec’ing shorter stems keeps the overall cockpit length the same and the steering lively. The bike’s BB has been kept low to increase stability, but high enough to utilise with 650b wheels should you choose.
- The Diverge has been given plenty of rack mounts, including fork and top tube mounts, to ensure you can take what you need, no matter how far you plan to go, or how long you plan to stay out.
- Nothing unlocks a bike’s capability like tyre clearance, so the new Diverge has 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 solid beam of carbon behind the chain rings they’ve created clearance without using a fragile dropped chain stay design or increasing chain stay length.
- The more capable your bike, the bigger your rides get, so Diverge borrows SWAT internal storage from the legendary Stumpy. The SWAT door lets you utilise space in the down tube to store tools, a flat kit, nutrition and even a SWAT Jacket. It keeps weight off your body, low in the bike for better handling, and makes you more self-sufficient, so get out there. SWAT’s got your back.
- Campagnolo's Ekar gravel groupset brings the first 1x13 setup to the gravel. With it's 9-42 cassette, paired with a 38t chainring, you get a huge range with fewer gaps between gears, helping you find the perfect cadence, no matter the terrain. Not only is it one of the lightest 1x groupsets, but it has been specifically designed with gravel riding in mind. The hoods and levers were designed for ultimate control, the brakes were purpose-built with more power in mind, and even the drivetrain was built with enhanced durability in-mind. It's the perfect complement for the ultimate getaway vehicle.
