Specialized Shiv Expert Triathlon Bike 2017

Everything within the Specialized Shiv Expert Triathlon Bike 2017 has been optimised to make you faster. Solely designed in the Win-Tunnel, this bike cuts through wind like no bike you’ve ever seen before, offering incredible aerodynamics alongside a stiff and efficient frame that’ll keep you riding faster for longer.

As one of Specialized’s top-level carbon layups, the FACT 10r carbon frame is ultimately lightweight and extremely efficient - mainly due to its oversized bottom bracket and tube shaping that slice through the wind like a hot knife through butter. The frame features optimised airfoils that enhance aerodynamic performance when battling against crosswinds and when you’re stretched out in the aero position you won’t have to worry about reaching to find your water bottle or nutrition. It's all right there in front of you thanks to the Control Tower Fit System and Fuelselage Integrated Hydration System which offers the most versatile nutrition integration on the market.

Utilising a blade-like construction, Specialized’s FACT Aero carbon fork follows suit with the frame, producing great aerodynamic performance for a more efficient ride. The stiffness and rigidity of the fork also provide precise steering and rider input, even when you’re stretched out gunning against the wind.

Incorporating Shimano Ultegra, 11-speed into the mix, Specialized have been able to further enhance the ride quality of the Shiv Expert. This drivetrain gives all the reliable, smooth-shifting efficiency you need when riding long distances, whilst the wide range of gearing gives enough versatility to choose the perfect gearing for the course you’re riding on. Connected via an FSA SL-K Light crankset, this entire system stays rigid and provides the perfect levels of power transfer you need to cut your times down.

Specialized Aero side pull brakes are specifically designed to remain minimal in aerodynamic drag by hiding from the wind. The front brake takes a smaller overall size than other brake calipers, without affecting any of the braking power, giving a more efficient ride with minimal drag.

Specialized Axis Elite wheels are significantly lighter than other wheels around this price point, giving you an even greater performance by further cutting weight. These wheels are smooth rolling and increase handling due to their shallow depth, making them ideal for TT courses with long, lung busting hills and technical corners.

Features

  • The FACT 10r carbon frame is lightweight and extremely responsive. It features crosswind-optimised airfoils for enhanced aerodynamic performance, while the Control Tower Fit System and Fuelselage Integrated Hydration System provide versatile fit options and nutrition integration
  • FACT Aero carbon fork utilises Specialized’s most advanced carbon construction methods to provide precise steering and rider input, while also improving overall aerodynamics
  • Significantly lighter than comparable wheelsets in its class, these tough Axis Elite wheels offer tremendous value in one smooth-rolling package
