Product Details

Is it moxie? Is it hutzpah? Is it enough raw speed to guarantee motion blur? Actually, the all-new S-Works Era embodies all these qualities, but with some barely contained 'let's do this!' enthusiasm mixed in. Designed and engineered to be the fastest, lightest, and best-fitting women's full-suspension XC machine, the S-Works Era features FSR suspension, the RockShox RS-1 Brain shock, and lightweight Roval Control SL wheels, and is the only woman's XC bike that dynamically reads terrain for everything from uphill sprints to singletrack descents. Up, down, PRs, and podiums—this gal's got game.

The FOX/Specialized remote Mini Brain does the thinking for you, and is the only shock that knows the difference between rider-induced and trail-induced bumps on the ground, making it the most efficient suspension of its kind.
The Era’s responsive FACT 11m carbon frame is stiff, ultra-lightweight, and delivers an efficient, nimble-handling ride. Designed with Women’s Competitive XC 29 Geometry for great fit and control, cabling is internally routed, while the built-in SWAT Tool cradle means you’ll always have an EMT multi-tool on hand.
Handcrafted, carbon Roval Control SL 29 disc wheels are built tough to resist those hard impacts, yet are super-lightweight and stiff for ultimate performance, ensuring you climb like a champ and accelerate out of corners with purpose.
