NEW WOMEN'S D'ALUISIO SMARTWELD FRAME
WHATLightweight D'Aluisio Smartweld alloy frames with oversized downtubes, shaped seatstays, and Women’s Endurance Geometry. Plus, Zertz dampers on Comp and Elite models.
WHYProvides predictable handling and contributes to a light, stiff and most compliant ride.
HOWA breakthrough in the weld location allows for a more durable, stiffer headtube junction which means more material in low stress areas can be removed. The larger downtube increases torsional stiffness, while the S-shaped seatstays with Zertz increase compliance and vibration absorption for an efficient, yet comfortable ride. To achieve endurance geometry, we optimize the tubesets and frame layout for a more comfortable position.
WOMEN'S COMPONENTS
WHATWomen’s Body Geometry Riva saddle and Comp handlebar with 75mm reach and 123mm drop.
WHYThe saddle design relieves soft tissue pressure, while the shallower bend in the handlebar allows a closer reach to the brake levers for added comfort and confidence in the drops.
HOWWe spec each bike individually based on frame size and geometry. Through pressure mapping tests with Dr. Roger Minkow, we optimize the foam densities and cutouts in our saddles to relieve soft tissue discomfort.
ZERTZ
WHATZertz viscoelastic dampers inserted into the carbon fork on all models and Zertz in the seatstays on Comp and Elite models.
WHYAbsorbs road vibration to minimize fatigue and create a more comfortable ride.
HOWVibrations travel from the road through the wheels and up through the frame and fork. Putting dampers at the mid-section of each fork leg and seatstay helps dissolve vibrations before they reach the rider’s hands and body.
WOMEN’S FACT CARBON FRAME
WHATFACT carbon frame with carbon OSBB and women’s Endurance geometry.
WHYMaximized control and stability, with minimized fatigue.
HOWThe frame’s construction moves joints away from high-stress areas, resulting in fewer redundant materials and a lower overall frame weight (1,000gms for S-Works).
FULL-CARBON FORK
WHATOne-piece full-carbon fork.
WHYTo help reduce weight and increase stiffness while maintaining a smooth ride.
HOWA full-length EPS mandrel increases layup precision and molding results. By molding in one piece, the dropouts are molded with the fork legs rather than bonded in afterwards.

I have been riding Specialized bikes for the past 3 years and there is undoubtedly no going back. I have never found a product that delivers on this level every time. Looks fast feels great. Congratulations to specialized...you did it again.

Yes, I recommend this product.
