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

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

Fast, fun and versatile gravel bike that's great on the road too
Fast and fun on or off road
Decent spec list compared to the carbon models
Pricey for an alloy gravel bike
No flared handlebar

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.

A very accessible all-road all-rounder, but can prove sluggish for pure road riding, and needs some wider tyres for true off-road riding
Versatile
Well engineered and very tough all-weather and all-road bike
Heavy
Slightly thin tyres for off-road use
The Future Shock adds a lot to the price

The Specialized Women’s Diverge E5 Comp is a bike that will turn its hand to most types of riding and one that genuinely hits the do-it-all landmark - it's pretty much identical to the men’s bike too. As a jack of all trades, we liked this versatile gravel and adventure bike but it needs tougher tyres before you take it too far off the beaten track.

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
