Riding ‘off road’ on a road bike is nothing new. I have seen lots of days-gone-by pics of Tour de France riders with a tubular slung around their shoulders riding dirt roads.

Proper gravel racer that belies its weight, and a blast to ride – plus the SWAT storage is a touch of class
Excellent handling for tackling trails at speed
Future Shock 2.0 gives controllable damping
Large tyre clearance
Such a fun ride
Thin bar tape
Bit of a colour clash inside the fork legs
Tyres quite narrow and slick for typical UK conditions

The Specialized Diverge Comp Carbon is a hugely versatile carbon gravel bike that could be turned to almost any task
The Future Shock 2.0 is super-effective at smoothing big hits and rough roads
Modern geometry contributes to super-stable ride quality
Every bike should have a SWAT box
Oodles of mounts boost versatility
Lots of tyre clearance
Uncompetitive build for the price
Tyres suffer in all but the driest conditions
Handlebar design may limit accessory mounting options

Good carbon frame
Great handling
Perfect blend of on road performance and off road capability
Tyres comprise its off-road competency

Bike giant Specialized sent us the Diverge Expert for our bikepacking group test. Designed as a gravel bike, it's been a talking point among bikepacking greats like Lael Wilcox since its introduction. Does it have what it takes to win our group test?
High level of comfort
Very composed
Maximum efficiency at cruising speed
SWAT box in the down tube
Frameset not stiff enough for heavy luggage
Lack of precision in off-road corners on loose surfaces
