2013 Shiv Expert Mid-Compact

We ignored UCI rules and designed the Shiv exclusively for triathlon: with unmatched aerodynamics, the Fuelselage integrated hydration system, and a huge range of fit adjustability. The Shiv Expert features a super light FACT IS 10r carbon frame with carbon aerobar and ShimanoDura Ace drivetrain.

• Specialized FACT carbon monocoque fork with crosswind-optimized airfoils is stiff and stealthy for precision steering and max speed

• Tough DT Axis 2.0 wheels roll smooth and fast, fitted with Turbo Elite tire for low rolling resistance and superior cornering traction

• Specialized Turbo Elite 100 TPI, offers BlackBelt protection for a tough tire that still offers low rolling resistance, great traction, and light weight to allow for quick climps and fast decents

• Fully adjustable, Specialized Hydroformed Alloy Aerobar fits any rider to provide the fastest position

• Integrated aerodynamic brakes minimize drag for aero excellence

• Shimano Dura-Ace 7900 rear derailleur for quiet, reliable shifting
