Specialized Crux Comp DSW Gravel Bike
The Crux DSW is more than just the lightest alloy gravel bike ever made. Utilizing our patented D’Aluisio Smartweld, Specialized have applied the innovative design principles from the carbon Crux to create an exceptionally capable, nimble, balanced, and responsive alloy gravel bike. It offers impressive 47c/650b x 2.1” tyre clearance, providing Diverge-level versatility to tackle any terrain. With its performance gravel geometry and race-influenced fit, the Crux DSW is nimble at the pedals and supple in the saddle, making it a high-performance choice for fast and fun rides. Some may call it a carbon copy, but Specialized call it the Crux DSW.
