Lighter than Venge. More aero than Tarmac. Engineered to go fast, the all-new Roubaix is the most technically advanced machine Specialized has ever made.

Shimano Factory Tour
Recently I was lucky enough to be invited to go on a Shimano Factory tour. I am told that this is a rare privilege, Shimano only has 2-3 tours a year that is open to dealers.
New Epic EVO
The EVO is the more shreddy Epic that quite a few customers are looking for. Now spec'd with a dropper post, bigger fork, wider bars and meaty tyres, the Epic EVO is the all-day, backcountry ripper.
