Specialized Diverge E5 – The Ultimate Alloy Gravel Bike

Whether your goal is to escape onto gravel backroads, line up for your first gravel race, or simply own the most versatile bike for both road and dirt, the all-new Specialized Diverge E5 is the answer. Quite simply, it’s the fastest, most capable, and most fun alloy gravel bike we’ve ever built. Quick and lively on smooth roads, stable and confidence-inspiring when the terrain gets rough—the Diverge opens up a whole new world of riding.

With an all-new gravel geometry and class-leading tire clearance, the Diverge is the result of more than 40 years of innovation in road, gravel, and dirt. It’s the ultimate getaway bike, designed for riders who want freedom, adventure, and performance.

Engineered for Versatility and Speed

At its core, the Diverge E5 features a Premium E5 Alloy frame paired with a full FACT carbon fork. This combination creates a lightweight, stiff, and durable platform that delivers speed on pavement and confidence on loose gravel.

The Shimano Claris 2x8 drivetrain provides a wide gear range for climbing, sprinting, or long adventures, while Axis Elite alloy wheels and Pathfinder Sport 38mm tires strike the perfect balance between road efficiency and dirt versatility.

Adventure-Ready Features

Premium E5 Aluminum Frame – strong, lightweight, and responsive
FACT Carbon Fork – reduces weight and soaks up vibrations for all-day comfort
Ample Mounts – including fork and top tube mounts, so you can carry racks, bags, and gear for long-distance rides and bikepacking trips
Wide Tire Clearance – fits up to 47mm tires with 700c wheels or 2.1” with 650b wheels, unlocking true off-road capability without compromising handling

Unlike traditional gravel bikes, the Diverge uses a drive-side chainstay with a solid carbon beam behind the chainrings, creating massive clearance without resorting to fragile dropped designs or extended chainstays.
