Specialized Crux Expert SRAM Rival XPLR AXS Gravel Bike in Grey Blue Lagoon

Season:2026

Brand:Specialized

Code:42234895448068

The Crux is the lightest gravel bike in the world, offering exceptional capability with massive tire clearance and performance gravel geometry.

It's not just the ultimate expression of gravel performance, it's your one-way ticket to gravel enlightenment.

This Crux Expert comes spec'd with all-new SRAM Rival XPLR AXS for effortless braking, lighter weight, with massive 13-speed gear range, lightweight and durable Roval Terra C Disc wheels, and 2Bliss Ready, 700x40mm Pathfinder Pro tires that hook up over nasty terrain.

Features:

  • Lightest: 725g S-Works 12r and 825g 10r frames. Revolutionary breakthroughs that made Aethos the lightest bike ever were applied to the Crux. The result is a gravel bike that climbs like a dream, floats over nightmarish terrain, and weighs less than a full bottle in your cage.
  • Capable: 47c/650b x 2.1" (5.3cm) tire clearance. More clearance means more capability. With Diverge-level tire clearance, Crux takes you anywhere you can imagine, at full gas.
  • Responsive: Nimble, supple, and reactive. Responsive at the pedals. Supple in the saddle. With performance gravel geometry and race-influenced fit inspired by Crux's iconic history in 'cross.
