Overview
About this bike
Specialized's Era Expert Carbon 29 is ready for XC domination — from World Cup racing to blowing by your friends on after-work rides. This carbon rocket features 100mm of Specialized's world-renowned, Brain-controlled FSR rear suspension that delivers hardtail-like efficiency on smooth sections and fully-active travel through technical terrain. This women's-specific ride features the geometry and components to be your ultimate XC weapon. The RockShox SID fork with Brain technology, a tapered steerer, and a 15mm thru-axle boasts 100mm of trail-smoothing, corner-carving precision. 2 x 10-speed gearing with an XTR Shadow Plus rear derailleur is powered by svelte SRAM carbon cranks to give you all the push you'll need and more. When it's time to slow down to earthly speeds, Magura's discs get it done, while the carbon Roval 29er wheels track your line with ease. Top it off with a sweet selection of Specialized's aluminum components as well as their trail-hugging, tubeless-ready tires for a smooth, solid ride ready for anything.
