The shop's feature list
- Specialized CRUX COMP CARBON/PURPLE HAZE/REBEL PINK 2025
- Das Crux ist das leichteste Gravelbike, das wir je entwickelt haben. Es besitzt eine außergewöhnlich große Reifenfreiheit und eine überaus sportliche Gravel-Geometrie. Es ist nicht nur der ultimative Ausdruck von Gravel-Performance, sondern auch dein Ticket in die Welt des Gravel-Sports. Das Crux Comp kommt mit der zuverlässigen und geschmeidigen Shimano GRX 12-fach-Gruppe, robusten DT G540 Disc Laufrädern und 2Bliss Ready Pathfinder Pro Reifen (700x38 mm), die sich in fiesem Terrain festbeißen.
- EXTRA LEICHT: Der S-Works Rahmen aus FACT 12r Carbon wiegt gerade einmal 725 Gramm, der normale Rahmen aus FACT 10r Carbon 825 Gramm. Erreicht haben wir das, indem wir die revolutionären Erkenntnisse aus der Entwicklung des leichtesten Rennradrahmens der Welt, des Aethos, auf das Crux übertragen haben. Das Ergebnis? Ein Gravelbike, das traumhaft klettert, über ruppiges Terrain fliegt und weniger als die gefüllte Trinkflasche in deinem Flaschenhalter wiegt.
- Vielseitig: Das Crux besitzt 2,1 Zoll Reifenfreiheit bei 650B Laufradgröße und 47C bei 700. Mehr Reifenfreiheit bedeutet mehr Möglichkeiten. Genau wie unser Diverge bringt dich das Crux überall hin, und das mit Vollgas.
- Direktes Fahrverhalten: Das Crux ist leichtfüßig, verspielt und direkt. Seine ikonische Geschichte im Cyclocross hat die auf Performance ausgerichtete Gravel-Geometrie und die für Wettkämpfe optimierte Fahrposition beeinflusst.
