Specialized Gravel/Road Sizing

Specialized suggests sizes but we'd always recommend test-riding the bike as everyone has different proportions and preferences. We'd say it's especially important if you straddle two sizes.

If you feel little difference between sizes, opting for the smaller generally offers more adaptability down the line. Bikes can quite easily be made to feel bigger, but when trying to shrink a bike that feels too big, your options are more limited.

Escape the beaten path and explore new horizons with the Diverge Expert. Whether you’re tackling gravel back roads, racing at the front of your favourite event, or seeking pure adventure, this bike has you covered. Lively yet stable, it combines decades of expertise to redefine what a gravel bike can do. The Diverge is your ultimate getaway vehicle – dream big, ride far.

Progressive Gravel Geometry

The Diverge sets a new standard with its progressive gravel geometry. A slacker head tube, increased reach, and longer offset fork create a planted, stable ride on dirt, while a shorter stem maintains responsive steering for nimble road handling. The low bottom bracket enhances stability without sacrificing compatibility for a 650b setup. Designed for confidence in rough terrain, this geometry ensures every ride is both capable and fun.

Future Shock on the Fly

Equipped with Future Shock 2.0, the Diverge delivers 20mm of axial compliance with an adjustable hydraulic damper which suspends the rider, not the bike. This technology keeps you in control and laying down the power over rough terrain, while also reducing fatigue. Adjusting the dampening ensures efficiency on smooth pavement and confidence on more challenging ground.

Lightweight and Efficient

Crafted with a FACT 9r carbon frame, the Diverge Expert is race-light and adventure-tough. SRAM Rival, GX, and NX reliably shift through the wide-range 11–50 cassette. Roval Terra C wheels offer deliver tubeless-ready speed and durability while the Roval Terra carbon seatpost increases compliance at the saddle to complete this versatile machine.
