The AWOL has been designed to have a very long top tube and headtube that, when combined with a short stem and wide handlebars, gives a neutral and balanced ride that is perfect for carrying heavy loads over long distances.

Specialized AWOL Review

janv. 2016 · Sarah Swallow

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...

Points forts
  • 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.

Points faibles
  • Tire clearance – Particularly in the front fork, falls a little short.

  • No provisions for fork mounted waterbottles, or the likes of Anything Cages.
