SWAT 4.0 compartment
More space, more speed. More space. Optimized ergonomics. Aerodynamic design.
5% more capacity with a 10% larger opening.
No other gravel bike has this much internal storage.
Wide tires, maximum fun.
50 mm of wheel clearance for more traction, safety, and freedom on any terrain.
Even more tire clearance
Specialized replaced the classic carbon tube with a carbon insert to increase rear wheel clearance.
Designed for any challenge
Geometry and handling: designed to push the limits
The Diverge 4 is the most innovative gravel bike ever. From the most demanding races to the most adventurous rides, with the Diverge 4 you'll feel at one with your bike, whatever the conditions.
More open head tube
With a wider head angle (71° on a size 56 cm bike), you get a higher trail, longer wheelbase and more confidence.
Lower bottom bracket
With a bottom bracket that is 5 mm lower, you will feel at one with your bike, for maximum control.
Longer reach
The progressive reach allows you to mount shorter handlebar stems while keeping your body weight centered.
430 mm chainstays
Enlarging the chainstays by 5 mm gives you even more tire clearance and better balance with the longer front center.
