Specialized Crux DSW Frameset (Satin Metallic Spruce/Birch/Smoke) (52cm)

Description

Specialized Crux DSW Frameset Description: Crux DSW represents the lightest alloy gravel frame ever produced by Specialized, an effort made possible by the implementation of D’Aluisio Smartweld construction for an effect that not only shaves grams, but imbues each frame with marked durability that will hold steady in the face of off-road gravel riding. D’Aluisio Smartweld construction not only yields a solid level of durability, but displays increased response as a result of comprehensive alloy tuning that leaves Crux DSW with ride properties that previously only existed in carbon frames. Clearance for the latest generation of high-volume gravel tires is assured by borrowing influence from Crux Carbon, a move that enables users to run tires as wide as 700c x 47mm or 650b x 2.1″ for confidence inspiring setups that will reflect the best of your riding efforts. Responsiveness exists in all characteristics of Crux, including race proven geometry that includes a longer reach that provides better weight distribution and a 72mm bottom bracket drop that exudes a balance of stability and agility.
