Specialized Crux 5 Comp Description:

The Specialized Crux 5 Comp incorporates valued lessons learned over the course of Specialized’s development within the field of gravel, and infuses winning aerodynamic design reserved previously for elite road frames for an ultra-competitive edge. Aerodynamic breakthroughs led to the development of Specialized’s “Speed-Sniffer” when shaping the Tarmac line, achieving countless accolades on road courses. This same aerodynamic philosophy, in turn, inspired the updated shape of every one of Crux 5’s frame tubes, elongating each tube for a wind-friendly shape that cuts through the wind, saving watts, and shedding grams. The pursuit of speed through aerodynamics is not without a similar effort to supply next-level ride quality; Specialized programmed Crux 5 with a carbon layup that instills better structural integrity for compliant behaviour under load, increased response, and a lower overall lighter weight. Rider-first engineering finds each frame in Crux 5’s size range with a carbon layup specific to its size, leading to a consistent level of compliance, handling, and stiffness across all sizes for unparalleled performance. Wider tire clearance for up to 55mm tires (2.2″) means riders can embark on even the most challenging of gravel courses with an optimal tire selection, leading to increases in handling and rolling performance.

Crux 5 Comp implements a FACT 10r carbon frame, complete with the same winning aerodynamic breakthroughs as its high-end brethren, only with compliance, clearance, and a competent frame weight class to match its entry-friendly component class. Sturdy alloy wheels with a 26mm internal width accommodate Specialized’s gravel-dominant Pathfinder tires at a 45mm tire width for excellent cornering and efficiency. SRAM Rival E1 hydraulic disc brakes operate with single-finger operation, instilling confidence through responsive braking from the hood or drop. A SRAM Rival AXS E1 13-speed electronic wireless gravel drivetrain conducts each shift with precise, crisp shift movement that spans a capable wide-range cassette for optimal gearing in training and racing scenarios.

Features:

• Carbon fiber gravel bike with aerodynamic frame profile and wireless 13-speed drivetrain
• FACT 10r carbon fiber frame tips scales at a scant 897g, ranking it one of the lightest production frames ever made
• Aerodynamic frame profiling applied to all tube shapes reduces drag, providing a real-world advantage in competition
• Race Tuned Progressive Geometry equips riders with confidence-inspiring fit marked with a balance of stability and clearance
• Unparalleled ride quality on Crux is defined by superior handling, a balanced level of compliance, and instantaneous acceleration
• Up to 55mm (2.2″) tire clearance, unlocks access to wider gravel selection, leading to options with lower rolling resistance and increased handling
