Overview
About this bike
Specialized's Fate Expert Carbon 29er is designed by women, for women. The women's geometry with a lower, longer, go-fast position shapes this sub-1,200 gram FACT carbon frame. The fit has plenty of standover, and sports nimble handling and snappy acceleration. The Fate's specially-tuned RockShox SID suspension fork, and 29-inch Roval carbon wheels, maintain momentum to let you float over bumpy terrain with ease. Rounding out the build are powerful Magura MTS brakes, a hill-conquering Shimano drivetrain with a SRAM mountain double crankset, grippy S-Works tires, and a Specialized's women's Body Geometry saddle.
