Specialized Ariel Comp Disc '12

Specialized Ariel Comp Disc

Shimano hydraulic disc brakes place the Comp Disc at the top of the Specialized Ariel range of trail-competent commuter bikes for women. That's significant because whether you ride off road or on, you can't have brakes that are too good.

Upgrades from Specialized Ariel Sport Disc

• Shimano BR-M446 hydraulic disc brakes are proven solid performers.
• The transmission is upgraded with Shimano Alivio shifters, front mech and chainset and a Deore Shadow rear mech.

The suspension forks and the tyres define the Ariel as Specialized's go-anywhere bike for women. Specialized Borough 700x45 tyres are faster than MTB knobblies but have enough bite to offer traction in loose conditions. The SR fork is perfect for entry level trail centre use. Specialized’s own Body Geometry saddle and grips ensure comfort wherever you ride. As with the whole Ariel family, eyelets for fitting mudguards and rack ensure functionality.

'With elements of both a road bike and mountain bike, the Ariel is for the female rider looking to zip through the weekday commute and head out for weekend adventure. The Ariel Comp Disc Step-Through features a A1 Premium Aluminium frame with women's recreational geometry, and 75mm-travel SR SunTour fork for a plush ride.'
