Summary
The Specialized Sequoia is a versatile gravel bike praised for its adventure-ready design, combining the touring utility of the AWOL with the quick handling of the Diverge. It offers a comfortable, stable ride on both pavement and rough terrain, thanks to its steel frame, carbon fork, and compliant seatpost. However, some models are noted for being heavy and over-geared, which can hinder performance on climbs and acceleration.

Specialized has really thrown its resources at adventure riding and, as a result, seems to have knocked the Sequoia and related gear out of the park.Bicycling
the Specialized Sequoia Expert is extremely good at what it was built for – namely, adventure

Its mix of classic road and modern adventure is far better than the sum of its spec-sheet parts. Buy if you want a bike that puts ride quality and practicality ahead of ultimate performance
Great riding position, SAG kit, gearing, fine ride feel
Incomplete 105 groupset, overall weight

A horizon-broadening heavyweight that belies its weight on the road, but it really comes into its own when you hit the hard-pack trails

What’s the Specialized Sequoia Elite got in common with the Volkswagen Bulli hippy wagon and how it compares to its sibling the Specialized Diverge?

Slow going on road

Over-weight, over-geared and not really wanting to go over there

A bike and accessories that says yes to just about any adventure you point it at

Named after one of the 1st bikes the company ever made, the 2017 Specialized Sequoia is an adventure rig aimed to take all-road bikepacking to a new era.
Adventure Geometry dialed for light trail work, long saddle days, and loaded riding.
Fork cage mounts … applause!
Sawtooth and Cruzero tubless tire/wheel combo seems solid and well thought out.
Details such as the fact that the front and rear have a single spoke length… ideal for emergency prep.
Minimal paint and graphics are eye-pleasing.
The Phenom Comp saddle is surprisingly comfortable.
Carbon seatpost is super light and comfy, but not ideal for a clamp mounted seat pack, such as their own Stabilizer Seatpack or Porcelain Rocket’s Mr. Fusion.
The Gearing is too high for loaded, hilly bikepacking; a 36t or 38T ring up front would be a welcome addition.
