The Specialized Awol promises adventure and, with modern geometry and interesting components, it certainly delivers.

Specialized AWOL reviewed on a 3-month, 5,000 mile dirt road route across the USA. A test ride doesn’t get much bigger than this. Find out how it fared...
Wheelbase – a longer wheelbase makes the bike easy to ride and predictable whether it’s loaded or not, on dirt, technical and steep descents, or smooth pavement. Also, no issues with toe overlap on smaller frame size!
Comfortable geometry – with its tall head tube and a long top tube, this bike can be built up to fit a wide range of positions and handlebar styles.
Sloping top tube – ample clearance in case of an unplanned dismount. Easy to hop on and off the bike.
Techy versatility – thanks to rack mounts, fender mounts, Swinger dropouts, cable stops to allow for full length housing, and a fork with internal dynamo light wire routing, this bike is useful for many different purposes, rides, and riders.
Tire clearance – Particularly in the front fork, falls a little short.
No provisions for fork mounted waterbottles, or the likes of Anything Cages.
