S-Works Crux

It's my third one. I love every single thing about it and I use it for gravel, road or touring. There is nothing that this bike can't do and it does it perfect. SRAM XPLR is a match made in heaven for Crux. You wont regret:))))

After hesitating between a new road bike or a gravel bike, this one blew my mind. So far happy about the investment and it is a joy to ride it everyday. Luckily with this one also with colder weather, the motivation is there as there is less risk as with a road bicycle. Quality great and it feels like all the roads are possible with the competitiveness of a road bike on no matter what terrain.

$12.000 bike they should have hidden cables

I also have a Diverge and they are different. One is comfortable and one is fast. This bike is fast. You almost can't keep up with it. You have to keep shifting gears. It just keeps getting faster. Build quality is awesome. SRAM 13 speed is best shifting I have tried. Doesn't matter how much power you are putting down it shifts quickly and solid. Great Bike!

I wanted a bike which I can ride on tarmac/gravel very fast with comfort...basically just start from home. (I have spur/rail/5010). Demoed following brands: Cannondale, Cervelo, Giant.....Liked Giant. Later demoed Crux and fell in love....especially S-Works. I demoed all Crux models 2024/2025...Including DSW/S-Works........But I bought 2023/2024 Crux S-Works because I could not find even 5% percent difference even with 46 tooth going uphill. Weight: With Fox Transfer SL 70mm, Tubeless and Pedals ME03T/218 Grams....Total weight of bike is 16.75 LB....Which is INSANE. Definitely I can say Specialized is BEST brand out there with the best bikes in each category....especially S-works. You cannot go wrong with this it's best of both worlds (Road + Gravel)...and there is no competition even $2600 DSW is better that 7K Giant/Cannondale/Cervelo. I have taken ONE STAR for one Negative which is price.....:-) But you are getting the BEST.

I will edit this once I have the bike for a while. I just wanted to say how good the Purchase Experience was. Once the order was placed it shipped the following day. Expected delivery is only 3 days away. That is great that you can order the bike and have it that fast.
