Cannot Say Enough

This setup is simply fantastic. Some have said online the Diverge feels "boring", but at 240lbs I need comfort to hit my 80-100mi rides. That said, the "comfort" the Diverge offers does not remove every aspect of fun. This bike is an absolute blast just about everywhere I've thrown it. Road rides? It can be snappy. Single-tracks? You bet. Chunky gravel and muddy terrain? Probably the sweet spot for this bike. Frame is light and responsive, I have never felt the need to "turn off" the future shock, and coming from a 105, the Rival groupset is on another planet. The ONLY gripe I have is being on a 1x I can't pedal on a super fast descent. If you're on the fence, get off it and ride this bike.

Excellent update

I bought the Diverge 4 Expert with the SRAM Rival XPLR 1x13 shifting. Chef's kiss on the 1x13. I had 1x11 SRAM Force back in the day and there were many gear ratios that left me wishing for something between. The 1x13 is so much better. I never really found myself wanting a ratio between any gears. Using both left and right shifters to change gears with the rear derailleur is going to take some getting used to, but that's a good thing. I'm 5'9" tall and I got the 52cm because of things I know about my fit. I probably could rock the 54cm, but the 52 is great out of the box. Took it on some gravel. I live in Kansas near Emporia (Home of Unbound). Kansas has some pretty rough gravel. I weigh 180lbs and Specialized recommends their stiff spring for that weight in the Future Shock. I did not feel like the shock was under-sprung ever. It was stiff where it needed to be stiff and compliant where it needed to be compliant. 10/10 would recommend.
