Résumé

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 ergonomic features. However, some models are noted for being heavy and over-geared, which can hinder performance on climbs and acceleration.

Pros
  • Adventure Geometry for stability and fun handling

  • Comfortable for long rides with ergonomic features

  • Versatile performance on pavement and rough terrain

  • Numerous mounting options for racks and gear

  • Good balance between touring utility and quick handling

Cons
  • Heavy weight affects acceleration and climbing

  • Over-geared in some models, limiting hill climbing ability

  • Rigid fork can lead to a jarring ride on rough terrain

  • Some components may reduce shifting performance

  • Canvas saddle and bar tape absorb dirt and moisture

Key Quotes
The Sequoia fills the gap in Specialized’s 700c adventure bicycle line-up combining the touring utility of the AWOL, and the quick handling, high-tech characteristics of the Diverge.
BIKEPACKING.com
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.

the Specialized Sequoia Expert is extremely good at what it was built for – namely, adventure

Steel bikes: Specialized Sequoia Elite review

oct. 2018 · Marc Abbott

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

Specialized Sequoia Review, 2017 Expert

juil. 2016 · Team Work

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.

Points forts
  • 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.

Points faibles
  • 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.
