Not only is the FACT carbon fork great for providing nimble and lively handling, it's also paired with Specialized Future Shock 2.0, the perfect technology for gravel riding.

Tubeless ready tyres mean you can quickly and easily convert your wheels to tubeless to enable you to run lower pressures to add to your comfort further, as well as reduce your rolling resistance and risks of a puncture ruining your gravel epic. Magura MT4 hydraulic disc brakes provide powerful braking performance with smooth modulation to keep your speed in check in all weather and riding conditions, while the Shimano XT 12 speed drivetrain provides you with a great range of gears for all terrains, from long or steep fire road climbs to fast technical descents. If technical descents are your thing, the Diverge Expert Evo provides just the ticket to help you send it in style with an X-Fusion Manic dropper post, letting you get your weight back over the bike for extra control and extra speed.
With the Diverge Evo, the frame has been lengthened 30mm over a drop bar Diverge, with a lower bottom bracket and slacker headtube, giving you more confidence over technical terrain with the added comfort and stability of a flat handlebar set up. With clearance for 47mm tyres the Diverge Evo really is a take-it-anywhere bike that you can ride wherever and whenever you want to.
