Speed and capability are crucial in a gravel bike, whether you're commuting to work in the Winter, exploring roads less travelled or leading in a gravel race but you can enjoy it even more when the bike also makes it fun. The new Diverge is fast and lively under power whilst being stable and confidence inspiring when the road gets rough. It features Future Shock 2.0, an all-new gravel geometry, internal storage and category leading tyre clearance, giving you everything you need when you're riding the road, gravel or dirt. It’s the ultimate getaway vehicle and takes gravel riding to another level.
The Diverge Expert is built with a precise mix of SRAM’s Rival, GX, and NX components for fast, efficient shifting, featuring an 11-50 cassette to handle any ride. It rolls on Roval Terra C wheels with 42mm Pathfinder Pro tyres. The setup is completed with Adventure Gear alloy handlebars, a Roval Terra carbon seatpost, and a Power Expert saddle.
Innovative SWAT Internal Storage. With enhanced bike capability comes bigger rides. The Diverge incorporates 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. This system keeps weight off your body and low in the bike for better handling, making you more self-sufficient. So get out there, SWAT’s got your back.
Progressive Gravel Geometry. Specialized have redefined gravel geometry with the new Diverge. It features the most progressive geometry they’ve ever created for a drop-bar bike, offering a stable and capable ride on dirt while remaining responsive and nimble on the road. The frame’s reach has been increased, the head tube slackened, and the fork offset lengthened. This results in incredible confidence with a planted feel on dirt, while shorter stems keep the overall cockpit length and steering lively. The low bottom bracket enhances stability but remains high enough to accommodate 650b wheels if preferred.
Future Shock 2.0: Speed, Control, and Confidence. Future Shock 2.0 is the ultimate technology for gravel riders. With 20mm of axial compliance and a hydraulic damper, it suspends the rider, not the bike, ensuring you remain confident and in control. You can maintain power and avoid braking on rough dirt roads and loose gravel while keeping your hands, arms, and neck fresh. The adjustable damper makes Future Shock 2.0 ready for both rugged trails and smooth pavement.
Versatile Rack Mounts. The Diverge is equipped with numerous rack mounts, including on the fork and top tube, so you can carry everything you need, regardless of how far or how long your adventure is.
Unmatched Tyre Clearance. To unlock the bike’s full potential, the new Diverge offers an impressive 47mm of tyre clearance with a 700c wheel and 2.1” with a 650b wheel. This is achieved with a solid beam of carbon behind the chainrings on the drive-side chainstay, avoiding the need for a fragile dropped chainstay design or increased chainstay length.
Lightweight and Capable Frame. The Diverge Expert’s FACT 9r carbon frame is both incredibly capable and race-bike light. Whether you’re chasing a local dirt climb KOM or tackling a massive backcountry peak, the light and agile Diverge will get you there faster.
