Specialized S-Works Ruby eTap Womens 2018 - Road Bike

Smooth riding and efficient, even over the most challenging road surfaces. The Specialized S-Works Ruby is an endurance road bike that features a SRAM eTap drivetrain - the next level shifting technology. The Ruby achieves this smooth ride without sacrificing handling or efficiency and will help you to perform at your best for longer on Sportives and rough road races.

Key Features:

• Ultra-Lightweight S-Works FACT 11r carbon frame is lightweight, stiff and strong
• FACT 11r carbon fork is stiff, strong and reactive
• Future Shock offers 20mm of vertical compliance for a smoother ride
• SRAM eTap 22 speed drivetrain wireless groupset
• SRAM Red hydraulic disc brakes for confident stopping
• Roval CLX 32 carbon wheels for rapid rolling
• Sizes: 51cm, 54cm, 56cm, 58cm
• Colour: Tarmac Black/Nordic Red/Chrome
• The Specialized S-Works Ruby ETap is available with 0% APR finance

We've known for years that smoother is indeed faster, but until the S-Works Ruby with SRAM eTap came along, we had no idea just how right we were. The frame is among the lightest that we've ever made, and it's been constructed from our top-end FACT 11r carbon fiber. Its stiffness levels are also off the charts, and compared to the SL4 iteration of yesteryear, you'll experience a whole new, faster, and more efficient geometry.

Through some engineering sorcery, however, we've managed to keep the same fit, feel, and position that we've all come to love from the SL4's Women's Endurance Geometry. Of course, you're probably thinking, "get on to the suspension thing up front." We call it Future Shock, and essentially, it's a piston in the head tube with 20mm of travel. We developed this technology in partnership with McLaren Applied Technologies, and the result of this are a host of drastic performance improvements, namely in the vertical compliance department. Without giving a physics lecture, we found that focusing on vertical compliance, instead of fork splay, meant that we could improve smoothness, speed, and comfort in one fell swoop. And of all the bikes that we've tested with our Rolling Efficiency Model, the new Ruby outperforms anything on the market.

Lastly, we spec'd it with awesome components, like SRAM's revolutionary eTap shifting, hydraulic disc brakes, our new CLX 32 Disc wheels, and a whole host women's-specific comfort features.

The S-Works FACT 11r frameset is our highest quality carbon frame, offering the ideal blend of light overall weight and targeted stiffness, while the all-new Future Shock "suspension" system at the cockpit delivers a revolutionary degree of comfort and control.

An S-Works Ruby Disc fork is built from our top-end FACT 11r carbon fiber for supreme stiffness, strength, and reactivity, while a thru-axle design only stands to bolster all of the above.

SRAM Red® eTap 11-speed shifters provide a glimpse into the future of shifting, and double as brake levers for the SRAM Red hydraulic disc brakes. They communicate wirelessly with the front and rear derailleurs for a ground-breaking level of performance.
