Specialized Crux 5

Unparalleled Ride Quality

Speed Everywhere, All-Day.

Speed isn’t just about peak numbers – it’s about sustaining power and momentum deep into the race. Crux 5 delivers telepathic handling, instantaneous acceleration, and balanced compliance that reduces fatigue on the roughest courses. Rider First Engineered and now with 55mm tyre clearance for unmatched traction and comfort, it preserves the legendary ride feel of Crux 4 – while adding real aerodynamic performance.

Our Most Aerodynamic

15.2 Watts Faster

The Crux 5 is the most aerodynamic gravel race bike we've ever made. Drawing directly from Tarmac SL8 learnings and decades of aeroresearch, every tube on Crux 5 was sculpted for speed at elite gravelrace speeds.
