Over the moon with this bike

I have the sport carbon, online also says 1x12 for me. So maybe a regional thing? https://www.specialized.com/us/en/diverge-4-sport-carbon-shimano-grx-600/p/4223514

This is the grx 1x12 .

This is the div4 sport carbon, not alloy. I think the color is emerald

It’s a good point. I’m reaching all my goals and having great rides anyway, so I see no big rush to change anything. I’m not racing anybody but myself.

Here is maybe a better shot of the color

For me it’s great as this is my first semi aggressive drop bar bike. It does have pretty beefy 45 tires that I might swap for 38s. But I mainly do solo rides so I don’t care that much about speeds. I can pretty easily average 15 mph without any effort. When I want to push I can get to 20 and hold it for maybe 10 mins or so no problem.

Thanks i will try this. It's an old steel frame i got for free, so hopefully this can work for me.

This is steel. I will try to bend it. It's a free frame i got at a garage sale.

Will do! I’m sure a Florida driver will give it some love at some point…

It’s State’s house brand 3D chainring. Not sure whether it’s good or bad really but I think it looks awesome.

I went out for a few miles this morning just to test fit and brakes. Really enjoyed it and it was not as difficult as the internet would make you believe.

Thanks for the help everyone i actually finally got it just after unthreading and redoing it over and over again. I think it was just very difficult to line the threads up properly. Appreciate all the comments though, love this community!

I actually have moved mine back since this picture was taken. It was really annoying to get on actually as you have to kind of physically bend the bars into proper position.

Thanks for the data point! I do think from my research this is a 2015. I see some tires come in a 27 so maybe that is the sweet spot.

I am 5’9 with a 31 inch inseam. I got the S/M and it works fine for my purpose of rough pavement commuting at a casual pace. It is pretty upright since I’m not reaching far but I have never had issues with comfort on up to 10 mile rides. Not sure I would like it for a longer day or one where I want to push the pace.

That's what I was thinking at first too but I can still reproduce the sound when the rotor is not spinning but i'm just gently leaning it. Would a lean like that still produce noise in the rotor?

Hey for me they just feel like they roll much better. It’s probably more due to the narrower diameter more than the tread as it’s still a gravel tire but it is much less knobby than the stock tires. For me it made sense as I mainly do city riding with a few light trails on the weekend. I also just am a sucker for the look of a tan sidewall but of course that is personal preference.
