Specialized bikes are high-end, top-quality bikes. They only use high-quality name-brand components designed to provide a lifetime of riding enjoyment. You will not find any cheap Chinese parts used on a Specialized bike.
One of the nicest features of the SPECIALIZED Comfort bike is the adjustable handlebar system. The handlebars are on a pivot system that allows the handlebars to go very low for putting your weight over the front of the bike or very high for cruising while sitting upright. It is extremely comfortable with the handlebars raised, as you can ride sitting upright. If the bars are lowered, the bike can be ridden as a traditional road bike, with the
The Specialized bike has a 17-inch lightweight aluminum frame with a long shock absorber seat post to accommodate a taller rider. The aluminum frame results in an extremely light bike that has very responsive handling and is super easy to pedal. If you ever transport your bike, you will appreciate its lightness.
The bike has a very comfortable and wide seat that is composed of several layers of foam and gel. It also features a quick release for adjustments on the fly. The seat post is a suspension post, which cushions any imperfections in the road or trail. The firmness of the seatpost can also be adjusted depending on the rider's weight or riding preference. .
The Specialized has 24 speeds, which makes a noticeable difference over a traditional 18 or 21-speed. It has a super low 1st gear to conquer any hill and a top 24th gear for effortless pedalling on the flats. It has a top-of-the-line aluminum Shimano ACERA derailleur. The quality Shimano ACERA derailleur engages the chain precisely, preventing chain wear and noise. With a quality Shimano ACERA derailleur, you will not need to have constant $79 tune-ups.
The Specialized bike features Shimano Rapid Fire shifters. These shifters shift instantly in every gear and will prevent you from ever missing a shift. With a flick of the top lever, the bike shifts instantly into the next gear. A quick thumb push of the bottom lever shifts the bike down a gear.
The tires are 26-inch COMFORT tires for an incredibly smooth ride on the pavement. The COMFORT tires are wider than a regular tire and provide a dampening effect for a very smooth ride. The middle is raised to provide the low rolling resistance of a road bike on the road, but provides excellent traction on wet or muddy trails. The 26-inch wheels are double-walled aluminum. They are super light and make pedalling easy, and being aluminum, they will also never rust. The bike features quick-release wheels, which are very handy when transporting the bike. The spokes on the Specialized are also stainless steel and will always keep their shine and never rust. This is very important in the Lower Mainland, as metal spokes exposed to rain will quickly rust at the nipples, and any wheel truing will generally result in a broken spoke due to the rust on the nipple. Replacing spokes can be very expensive. With this bike, you should never have to worry about that.
The bike features aluminum, not cheap steel, linear-pull V-brakes. They provide superior stopping in wet or dry conditions.
The bike features aluminum front shocks. The hi-end aluminum shocks are very light, and being aluminum will also never corrode as the cheaper metal shocks will. Shocks absorb any imperfections in the road. If a pothole or object is hit the dampening of shocks can prevent injury by preventing the bike from suddenly rebounding. The dampening of Shocks will also prevent damage to the wheel and front forks if an object is hit.
The axles are also top-of-the-line aluminum double-sealed axles and feature lifetime-lubricated bearings. Even the pedals are aluminum, not cheap plastic as many bikes are. The crank or pedal arms are top-of-the-line Aluminum by SHIMANO and not plastic painted to look like metal.
The bike has never been stored outside and has always been in a garage. It has only been ridden on holidays and still looks, rides, shifts, and brakes as new.
The Specialized bike is a quality dual-purpose bike that will provide a lifetime of enjoyment. It is ideal as a city commuter or just as capable as an off-road bike, taking on any terrain.
The 2026 SPECIALIZED model is $839 and is missing 2 important COMFORT features.
1. It is only an 8-speed not a 24-speed.
2. It does not have front suspension
You are welcome to come and take the bike for a ride to experience the comfort and handling of the bike. Riding sitting upright is also super comfortable.
