Specialized Ruby Expert Womens Road Bike 2018
Don't let the tarmac dicate your route. The Specialized Ruby Expert Womens Road Bike combines cutting edge technology with high end componentry to create a machine that performs faultlessly, across a whole range of gradients, terrains and conditions.
The FACT 10r carbon fibre construction and bolt-thru axles ensure extremely high levels of stiffness, without affecting the compliant, comfortable ride that previous iterations of the Ruby were renowned for. Steering is kept sharp and responsive thanks to the FACT carbon fork, critical for maintaining maximum control over rougher surfaces. Additionally, the Future Shock technology greatly improves comfort, essentially offering 20mm of travel via a piston integrated into the head tube.
Shifting is taken care of by Shimano's highly regarded Ultegra R8000 groupset, offering the crisp, responsive shifting all keen cyclists crave. Similarly, braking is consistently sharp and controlled, no matter the conditions, thanks to the Shimano R8020 hydraulic disc brakes. Combining the 50/34T chainset and 11-32T cassette ensures a gear range extensive enough to tackle steep alpine climbs and dominate fast, flat sprints with equal success.
The remainder of the bike's specification is made up of Specialized's premium own brand products, including their Roval SLX 24 Disc wheelset. Utilising a shallow rim design, these wheels are the ideal choice for crosswind stability, while the DT Swiss 350 hubs offer a precise design featuring ultra smooth sealed bearings for low rolling resistance all year round. The 28mm Turbo tyres also aid the bikes impeccable performance, offering high levels of grip and comfort, for enjoyable, long days in the saddle.
