Riassunto

The Specialized Crux is a versatile gravel bike praised for its lightweight carbon frame, aggressive geometry, and race-ready design. It offers excellent tire clearance and internal cabling for emerging technologies, though some models suffer from stiff stock wheels and mechanical brakes with poor modulation. The bike's handling is stable and precise, making it a favorite for competitive riders, but comfort can vary depending on the build.

Pros
  • Lightweight carbon frame

  • Aggressive, race-ready geometry

  • Excellent tire clearance

  • Internal cabling for emerging technologies

  • Stable and precise handling

Cons
  • Stiff stock wheels lead to a harsh ride

  • Mechanical brakes lack modulation

  • Comfort varies by build

  • Some models have heavy components

  • Toe overlap issues in early prototypes

Key Quotes
The disc brakes certainly allow a bit more confidence riding such ‘roads’, gravelly running paths or even light singletrack compared to my personal Crux.

Specialized call this new carbon Crux a 'Tarmac for dirt'.

mag 2012 · Staff

We had the Specialized Crux Comp Disc Apex for six months spread amongst three riders. While I had the bike, I put in 2-5 rides per week ranging from short tabata interval workouts to indoor trainer riding to 5 hour endurance gravel road rides.  As a disclaimer, I work at a Specialized Dealer and built …

group test: Specialized Crux Elite £999.99

nov 2010 · Jclarkson

12th November 2010 "Evidently, this is very much the racer of the bunch. If you wanted to use it as a commuting and training bike, with a set of slick tyres it’ll certainly hold its own amongst the roadies, but there are few concessions to long-distance comfort."
