Sumarize
The Diverge STR Expert from Specialized is a versatile gravel bike designed for demanding off-road adventures. It combines state-of-the-art technologies with a robust construction to offer maximum performance and comfort. The FACT 11r carbon frameset with integrated Future Shock suspension front and rear provides superior damping characteristics for an exceptionally controlled and efficient riding experience on rough surfaces. The internal cable routing and the SWAT door for storing tools or spare parts round off the well thought-out frame design.

The wide 700C tires offer excellent traction and control on unpaved roads. The Diverge STR Expert is a powerful and durable gravel bike that sets new standards in terms of riding fun and comfort off-road thanks to innovative technologies such as the Future Shock suspension.

Peter Stuart
The STR’s rear suspension comes at a cost on price, a small weight penalty and perhaps aesthetic appeals, I’d consider those trade-offs to be a reasonable exchange for the broad performance gains on offer
- +Better ride quality
- +More ride versatility
- +Better all-around performance
- +Impressive comfort across all terrain
- -Added complexity
- -Increased price
