Specialized Ruby Comp Womens Road Bike 2019

Product Description

We all benefit from comfort but all too often it comes at the expense of performance. Not anymore though. With the Ruby Comp you get next-level comfort from a design thats nothing short of revolutionary. The frame is among the lightest that weve ever made & its been constructed from our superlative FACT 10r carbon fibre. Its stiffness levels are excellent & compared to the SL4 iteration of yesteryear youll experience a whole new faster & more efficient geometry. Through some advanced dedicated engineering however weve managed to keep the same fit feel & position that weve all come to love from the SL4s Womens Endurance Geometry. Of course youre probably thinking get on to the suspension thing up front. We call it Future Shock & essentially its a piston in the head tube with 20mm of travel. We developed this technology in partnership with McLaren Applied Technologies & the result of this are a host of drastic performance improvements namely in the vertical compliance department. Without giving a physics lecture we found that focusing on vertical compliance instead of fork splay meant that we could improve smoothness speed & comfort in one fell swoop. & of all the bikes that weve tested with our Rolling Efficiency Model the new Ruby outperforms anything on the market. Lastly we specd it with a host of components that blur the lines between steadfast reliability & outright performance like Shimano Ultegra 11-speed shifting powerful Shimano Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes svelte & sturdy DT R470 Disc wheels & a womens-specific saddle that provides all-day comfort. Featuring our Rider-First Engineered™ design that ensures every frame size has the same legendary responsiveness & smooth ride quality that youd expect from a Ruby. The FACT 10r frameset holds its own with our highest-end carbon offerings with the ideal blend of light overall weight & targeted stiffness while the all-new Future Shock suspension system at the cockpit delivers a revolutionary degree of comfort & control. Shimanos no-fuss Ultegra shifting with hydraulic disc brakes provides precise shifting & plenty of stopping power. DT R470 Disc wheels feature reliable sealed cartridge hubs & 24 front & rear spokes that keeps weight low & durability high.
