Summary
The Specialized Diverge is a versatile gravel bike praised for its smooth ride quality and all-surface capability, blending road and mountain bike DNA. Its FutureShock suspension system enhances comfort by damping vibrations and bumps, while the geometry offers stable handling and confidence on varied terrain. However, some reviews note that it can feel less nimble in technical sections and may lack traction with stock tires.

Fast and responsive over varying terrain, however Future Shock suspension makes a questionable contribution in the face of high-volume tyres
Versatility
Speed
Handling
Tyre clearance
Suspension and toolbox unnecessary for some

The Specialized Diverge Comp Carbon could be the perfect do-it-all bike for those seeking on road fun and off road thrills
Good carbon frame
Great handling
Perfect blend of on road performance and off road capability
Tyres comprise its off-road competency

More expensive

Sporting slacker and longer geometry numbers the all-new Specialized Diverge takes drop-bar, gravel-bike aggressiveness to a whole new level
Stealthy, refined aesthetics
Compliant ride quality
Flattering geometry
Reactive steering
Comprehensive range covering all price points
Dropper post is overkill and adds unnecessary weight

The 2020 Specialized Diverge Expert gravel bike features the Future Shock front suspension system and Open Road Geometry. We put it to the long-term gravel grind.
Sep 2018 · Aoife Glass
Capable aluminium gravel bike that doubles as a commuter. Buy if you want a good value do-it-all road bike that'll be as comfortable for a pot-hole riddled commute as an on-road/off-road weekend adventure ride
Comfortable, versatile, can take bigger tyres for an even smoother ride
Fewer mounts for attaching racks and mudguards than the carbon models which limits versatility
