2019 Specialized Diverge E5 Mens Gravel bike in Red
The Diverge e5 is equipped with everything you need to head to work take the long way home or hit some fire roads on the weekend.
The Diverge is more capable than ever. And with the constant goal to best meet your needs we took your number one request into accounttyre clearance. The new frame will comfortably fit up to 700x38mm tyres with plenty of room for mud too. Along with tyre clearance weight was a large factor in the development and taking some design cues from the development of the Roubaix we developed an e5 premium aluminium frame thats plenty light certainly stiff for hard efforts and undeniable tough.
Next up we moved away from a traditional cross geometry instead opting for something that hasnt been seen beforeour open road geometry. You can think of it as a road version of modern trail bike geometry. It provides playful handling and predictable steering for endless dirt skids and mid-corner drifts. The geo features a bottom bracket that's over a half-centimetre lower than the previous Diverge a slacked-out head tube angle short chainstays and a short wheelbase. These changes make for a bike that's not only fun in the dirt but also performs well on the road.
