Introducing the Aethos Expert - Rival eTap AXS. Created in the pursuit of the perfect ride, this Expert model by Specialized is the embodiment of advanced design philosophy, seamlessly blending superior ride quality, lightweight construction, and style that cannot be overlooked.

This model comes equipped with a wireless SRAM Rival eTap AXS electronic shifting and hydraulic disc brakes, combining performance and convenience for an unparalleled cycling experience. The durable Roval C38 Disc carbon wheels included ensure a steadfast performance, making this bicycle your perfect companion for all your road explorations.

  • Designed with a perfect balance of ride feel, light weight, and style, the Aethos frame excels at everything - from steep ascends and technical descents, to enduring comfort on long coffee rides. The reinvented traditional road shape offers significant gains in stiffness and balance without affecting weight or durability, making the frame the lightest out there.
  • The Aethos is not just a new bicycle - it is the forerunner of a new breed. With a featherweight frame, balanced front and rear stiffness, and exceptional ride quality, your rides will be nothing short of sublime. Specialized's groundbreaking research on the flexing and breathing of carbon fibre led to the discovery of how forces flow through frames, directly enhancing the ride experience.
  • No detail is too small when it comes to the pursuit of the perfect ride. The derailleur hangers and fork expander plug have been designed with style, weight, and durability in mind. The Rival eTap AXS also features Roval’s all-new Alpinist carbon seatpost, reducing weight further and improving ride characteristics.

Embark on a new cycling adventure with the Aethos Expert - Rival eTap AXS and elevate your riding experience to new heights. It's not just a bike, it's a revolution in cycling dynamics.
