Specialized Crux - 2023, 52 cm

2023 Specialized Crux – Size 52 (Carbon Gravel / Road Bike, SRAM AXS, Carbon Wheels)

This 2023 Specialized Crux in size 52 is a lightweight, versatile carbon gravel and road bike designed for speed, efficiency, and adventure. The full carbon frame and fork offer clearance for tires up to 50mm, making it equally capable on fast pavement, rough gravel, and everything in between. It’s equipped with a SRAM Rival AXS 1x12 wireless drivetrain with an 11–44 cassette and 40T chainring, delivering a wide gear range with clean, simple shifting. SRAM hydraulic disc brakes provide confident stopping power in all conditions. The bike rolls on Roval Terra carbon wheels with tubeless compatibility, paired with brand-new Specialized Pathfinder 38C tires for a perfect balance of speed and grip. A carbon Roval seatpost, 80mm stem, and Specialized cockpit components complete the build. With approximately 500 miles, the bike is pre-owned but in great condition and fully ready for new adventures.

Why we love it: The Crux is one of the lightest and most responsive gravel bikes ever made, and this build hits the sweet spot between race-ready performance and real-world versatility. The SRAM AXS wireless setup keeps things clean and modern, the Roval Terra carbon wheels elevate ride quality and acceleration, and the generous tire clearance means this bike adapts effortlessly from fast group rides to long gravel epics. It’s a true “do-it-all” machine that feels fast, capable, and refined every time you ride it.
