This bike is equiped with 700 x 32c Specialized Houffalize CX Sport tires and Stainless spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Mavic CXP 22, 32-hole. Specialized equiped this exact model with Tektro Wide canti front/Tektro Narrow Canti rear brakes, Shimano Tiagra STI levers braking system and Forged alloy hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Specialized used Specialized E5 Aluminum material for the frame. Specialized CX Comp alloy short drop high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Crux Elite to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Specialized Comp-Set.
For the smoothest biking experience FSA Omega, 36/46 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to HG73 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Specialized, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Tiagra STI gear shift levers.
