Riassunto

The Specialized Crux is celebrated for its lightweight frame, versatile performance across gravel and cyclocross, and high-quality components. It offers a responsive and lively ride, with excellent handling and comfort, making it a top choice for racing and fast gravel riding. However, some models face criticism for their high price points and component choices that may not match the frame's quality.

Pros
  • Lightweight frame

  • Versatile for gravel and cyclocross

  • Responsive and lively ride

  • Excellent handling and comfort

  • High-quality components on higher-end models

Cons
  • High price points

  • Component choices may not match frame quality

  • Limited mounting points for bags on some models

  • Stock components can lead to a stiff ride

Key Quotes
The alloy frame is hardly noticeable on the trails, open roads, and gravel-heavy sections.
Bikerumor logoBikerumor
The new CruX is designed as a gravel race bike first, with some nods toward cyclocross racing.
CX Magazine logoCX Magazine
the Crux offers a truly exciting off-road ride. It can hop, skip and jump through the tightest turns, crest climbs with ease, and then return to the tarmac and keep up with the roadies like it's no big issue

Specialized Crux DSW Comp Review: An Excellent Frame with a Single Build

nov 2024 · Jordan Villella

Specialized Crux DSW Comp is nice, but the build makes us wonder if choosing your components and building from the frameset up is better.

2025 Specialized Crux DSW alloy gravel bike review: simpler times  - Escape Collective

nov 2024 · Dave Rome

Specialized’s latest aluminium race bike for gravel, all-road, and cyclocross endeavours.

Pro
  • Incredibly simple to work on and maintain

  • A frame worth upgrading with easy and wide-open part compatibility

  • Good tyre clearance

  • Well-balanced geometry for racing purposes

  • SRAM Apex mechanical does the trick.

Contro
  • A little stack height would broaden its appeal

  • Cut-outs at bottom bracket let dirt into the frame

  • Stock components lead to a stiff ride

  • The one complete bike option doesn’t represent stellar value

  • Crummy headset

  • Toe overlap in smaller sizes with bigger tyres.

Specialized Crux Comp gravel bike review

giu 2023

Crux is Specialized's premium gravel bike that comes with a lot of characteristics borrowed from both its cyclo-cross history and featherweight Aethos road bike. The lightweight carbon frame offers excellent comfort on gravel surfaces but, with this specific model, the rest of the bike spec is not up to the same level as the frame.
