They say that every journey begins with a single step, but when that journey is related to exercise, that first step can sure be a doozy. Don't worry, though—we have your back with the Roll.

It has everything you need to help you along your journey of being the fitter, better you. Wide, traction-packed tires? Check. A comfortable, upright geometry that keeps a smile on your face, even when the times get tough? You know it. Reliable components and a frame that'll stand up to the elements? It's all there in a package that's pretty on the eyes and a joy to ride.

  • Wide diameter, 650bx2.3" Nimbus Sport tires provide excellent traction, stability, and cushioning, which creates a safer, more reliable, and more comfortable ride on either paved or dirt roads.

  • Equipped with our Body Geometry "The Cup" saddle, you can expect a supreme level of comfort anywhere you take the Roll. It delivers on these expectations by "cupping" your sit bones, which reduces pressure without feeling obtrusive or constraining.

  • A sturdy alloy seatpost features a 12mm offset for the perfect position on the bike, and its anodized finish will resist corrosion and wear over the long haul.

What the heck is this bike? Loving it!

After 30+ years of not doing any serious riding I purchased a cruiser type bike Last Summer. At the beginning of this season I realized that I had purchased too small of a framed bike and was in search of a suitable upgrade. I knew exactly what I wanted and when I went to The Bike Shop they were very accommodating, however, when taking out the bike that I hab focused on, they also brought out one of the Specialized Roll bikes. Out of courtesy and perhaps just more than a little curiosity I hopped on the bike. WOW! I haven't felt this way about a bicycle since Christmas 1969 when my folks bought me a then popular English racer. It has a great gear range and an unbelievably lightweight feel. I cannot believe how well it steers. Although I had been riding a modern design alloy frame Cruiser type bike, the Specialized Roll is so much Superior feeling. Truly looking forward to a summer of fun and exploration with this modern lightweight twist on a classic designed balloon tire bike. My hats off to the folks at Specialized Bicycles as well as the Bicycle Barn in Whitman Massachusetts who introduced me to this wonderful machine.
