These bikes are designed as aggressive trail hardtails, which was previously a bit of a gap in Specialized’s selection. Whereas Trek’s recently-announced 29+ Stache will replace its 29er predecessor, Specialized claims that the new 27.5+ bikes will not be replacing anything in their lineup. The unofficial word on pricing is that both bikes will ring in around $1600 for the entry level Comp options, $2100 for the mid-range Expert versions and $3100 for the currently top-end Pro models. The jury is out on how long that term will last, but it’s evident that Specialized has invested quite a bit in these models, each of which will be available in three trim options as early as late May. Tucked away in a corner was a stand with two 27.5+ hardtails: a men’s version called the “Fuse” and a women’s called the “Ruze.” It’s no surprise that Specialized is getting into the 27.5+ game, especially given the success of their Fatboy fatbike, which, according to Specialized, inspired the design of these two new models.īoth bikes are held together by M4 aluminum frames and roll on 27.5+ wheels, which Specialized refers to as 6Fattie. Walking through the alleys of bike bling and sweating spectators at Sea Otter, I decided to swing through the Specialized tent to see what the Big Red S had cooking.

The Fuse Comp 29 punches way above its weight class thanks to a light-yet-burly M4 aluminum chassis frame geometry that lends the bike both playfulness and capability and parts that withstand a serious flogging.
