Overview
About this bike
Specialized's Vita Elite Carbon is a tale of two bikes. It’s an integral part of your exercise plan, tearing through miles at local charity rides and is ready and willing to buckle down for your morning commute. Its lightweight, women's-specific FACT 9r carbon frame gets up to speed quickly, while the Zertz-enhanced carbon fork damps vibrations and smooths the road. You'll also love the free-rolling, 700c wheels and comfortable handlebars with easy-to-reach controls. Whether it's a short errand or an all-day adventure, you'll be glad you have an easy-spinning Shimano 18-speed drivetrain for conquering hills and powerful disc brakes for a confident ride down. The speedy ride is balanced by the cushy Women's Riva Sport Plus saddle that will keep you comfortable as you work up a sweat.
