Take control of the trail with the Specialized Diverge STR Expert 24.
Designed with a suspension system that allows riders to tackle trails with ease and comfort, it also features SRAM’s electronic drivetrain for smooth shifting, letting riders stay focused on the trail.
With Future Shock front and rear suspension, the new Diverge STR delivers uncompromising performance. By suspending the rider—rather than the bike—Future Shock technology increases control and efficiency while reducing fatigue, so you’ll ride farther and faster over rough terrain, even beyond what you thought was possible.
And the Diverge STR does it without the weight, sluggish pedal response, and inefficiency of other suspension systems. The Diverge STR Expert starts with our FACT 11r carbon frame featuring Future Shock front and rear suspension. Equipped with the SRAM Rival eTap AXS Eagle groupset, it offers fast and efficient shifting, along with a 10-50 cassette to ensure you have the perfect gear range to tackle any route. The bike is fitted with Roval Terra C wheels and 42mm Tracer Pro tires.
The Adventure Gear aluminum handlebars, S-Works carbon seatpost, and Power Expert saddle round out the package, making the Diverge STR the most capable Diverge ever.
-By suspending the rider with adjustable travel—20 mm front / 30 mm rear—Future Shock technology absorbs the forces caused by uneven terrain to increase control and handling, while maintaining the efficiency and responsiveness so characteristic of this frame, because when it comes to power transfer, it’s a very stiff frame. Pedaling hard over rough terrain makes the bike bounce like a startled cat. The new Diverge STR is efficient, comfortable, and highly maneuverable. It’s lightweight, agile, and highly responsive.
-The new Diverge features perfect lines and curves. The Future Shock rear suspension provides 30 mm of rear travel to smooth out rough trails. Its hydraulic damping controls the travel to eliminate “bob” while pedaling and ensures that big impacts never catapult you out of the saddle—all without compromising pedaling technique and efficiency.
-Born from decades of innovation and our “Smoother is Faster” philosophy, Future Shock was created to develop bikes that excel on cobblestones, but has found its purest expression in Gravel riding. It features 20 mm of adjustable, damped front travel that keeps you in total control while protecting your hands, arms, and shoulders from impacts.
-More capability means more confidence; more confidence means more routes; more routes mean more fun—and it all starts at the point of contact with the ground. Nothing boosts capability more than a good wheel clearance. 47 mm on a 700c wheel and 2.1" on a 650B. The Diverge STR is the most capable Gravel bike we’ve ever built, which is why it’s the most fun. Don’t worry—we’ve done the math.
