At their hotly anticipated dealer event in the Netherlands, we grabbed the opportunity for a closer look at the stateside brand’s new products for 2017. Take a good scroll through all of Specialized’s latest launches and get ready to feast your eyes on a soon-to-be-released whip that hooked our attention!
Ready for Rio, Specialized have brought out the limited edition Torch collection, which sees a range of custom models with heat sensitive paint. See for yourself:

For the coming season it’s satisfying to see Specialized’s attention to detail and some minor (but brilliant) updates that they’ve applied to their now condensed collection. Aside from their eMTBs, it’s interesting to note that all their mountain bikes can come as standard with either 29″ or 27.5″ wheels, and that the 6Fattie are just an option for the future. Are we seeing a 29er revival?
However, fine-tuning and upgrading aside, Specialized wouldn’t be Specialized if they didn’t have some even bigger tricks up their sleeve: so here’s a little teaser of a new whip that we were lucky enough to test out in the deepest, darkest jungle!
