2020 Sirrus X 5.0

Bike é irada demais, vale cada centavo!

This bike just rides great, light, agile, fast, comfortable and smooth, a real pleasure to own and use. Very versatile for many purposes like fitness, commuting, urban and light gravel/trail riding. Reliability has been very good, zero issues in over 2,000 miles of riding so far. Looks and finish are also topnotch, and components are pretty good too as delivered. In my case I did some higher-end component upgrades, not out of necessity at all, I think probably more because how much I like the carbon frame and design and just wanted to make it even a bit better/lighter and for some added bragging rights. Vey recommended!

I love this bike. I have the carbon X. Smooth and fast. I'm in the city and the Future Shock makes a huge difference. I ride 15-20 miles 4+ days a week and love it. Very comfortable and responsive. Did I mention how light it is? Like feather weight. I would recommend it 100%. Forget all these negative comments about minor issues. They are rare and simple warranty fixes. Get one! You will love it.

Love this bike- I have neck issues from years of a more aggressive riding position and needed something fast but more upright. This fits the bill perfectly. Threw some 28c allroad tires to keep up with my road friends. The shock absorbing headset is also great for my body. Only issue with it has been lots of dropped chains off the crank chainring- not a wear issue, since it has been a problem from day 1. I've tried clutch/no-clutch on rear derailleur, but this makes no difference. So I spent an extra $90 on a simple seattube-mounted chainkeeper that has worked perfectly. Wondering if other have this issue as well?

Un cadre carbone bien dessiné et une fourche future shock en fond un vélo nerveux et confortable. Dommage que Specialized ait fait l'économie sur les freins MT200 trop justes, notamment sous la pluie, et surtout sur le boitier de pédalier et pédalier de bien piètre qualité et insuffisamment rigides (craquements assurés au bout de quelques 100aines de km malgré un graissage fréquent soigneux). La version 2021 qui intègre un pédalier Praxis semble corriger ce point critique.

Muy rápida y liviana. El amortiguador future shock ayuda bastante en pavimento maltratado. Los puños que trae son muy duros por lo que los tuve que cambiar por unos de gel. Si eres un ciclista intermedio, en ciudad ninguna bici te rebasa, excepto las de ruta. Cómoda para pedalear distancias largas con poca fatiga. Muy recomendable si quieres hacer ejercicio, meterte a caminos de grava o terracerías leves y no quieres una bici de carreras o gravel.

Bought the sirrus x5 in January 20. Previously I usually did around 700 miles a year. I have just clocked up 2000, would've been more but work got in the way! Love everything about this bike, it's light, fast, responsive and perfect riding position.

I'm not novice. Have a fleet of bikes and bought this bike in May 2020 because I wanted a carbon commuter bike . Commuter bike riding is my way of getting additional cardio in for my MTB legs without having to be a spandex roadie.. I have had to replace almost every single component in less than 90 days. Now the rear hub, crank and the brakes are beginning to have issues. I really want to love this bike. The carbon frame is amazing, I understand keeping the price point reasonable but this is ridiculous Specialized. So far after market this bike is about $3000 to make it right.

LOVE the frame, 1x drivetrain and flat bar set up. Threaded bottom bracket vs press fit. Future Shock that actually makes a difference in comfort. The mat green color is beautiful. So sick of black bikes. But I highly recommend you have this bike thoroughly inspected before taking delivery. Mine was given to me with NO damper spring installed in the Future Shock. Two of the spokes were so loose I could tighten them by hand. Specs say the tires were tubeless ready. My tires were the next model down and were not. After 3 months and 500 miles I had a bearing failure in the rear hub. I'm still trying to figure out how to silence the rattling inner cables in the downtube. I'm a bike guy and have been able to overcome all of these issues because when it is working, it's now my go-to ride. Just a fun ride. Would I buy another Specialized?...hard to say with the quality control issues I have experienced. Time to order some upgraded wheels..not from Specialized.

It's a pity that the 2020 color doesn't match the 2019; I decided to wait and not to buy for now since I can't find anymore the previous model

I spent a number of years riding around NYC on a road bike, but always felt like I was gonna get hit by a car. Not only do I feel so much more comfortable riding in traffic with the more upright geometry, but it's super comfortable and light and just rolls right over potholes and rough city streets. I ride this bike so much more than my road bike. I also put a salsa wanderlust rack on it to hold groceries etc and it still feels light and responsive. Great bike!

X 5 2020 model (L) Finally bike arrived after a 2 week wait and let me say how relieved i was that the bike was in one piece and damage free. Look wise i personally cannot fault the kit, beautiful, Just one look and i honestly want to go for a ride. Ride wise its quick, nimble, very responsive, clean gear changes with a comfortable ride position. Perfect for roads, tow paths, canal, gravel. This is not an off-road bike for trailing or downhill you will injure yourself and cause damage to the bike. Weight 9.57kg (L) Happy customer.

i've settled in to the X 5.0 within a few rides and < 40 miles. NEVER had a bike fit so well so fast with only minor tweaks with the seat. 5.0 is very comfortable and i only changed the grips to more ERGONomic ones. (i think i got a better color (black/purple altho glossy) than what the current year is offering. minor complaint i had to have over sized brake cable shortened. what were you thinking SB?

the cables do not come as shown. the brake/shift cables are too long and rub across the head tube SCRATCHING THE PAINT right through. multiple on line complaints about it. specialized warranty excludes 99% of the bike and does not have touch up paint. if you buy the bike get the head tube protected
