At a glance
The 2016 Specialized S-Works Era 29 is an Trail Carbon mountain bike. It sports 29" wheels, has RockShox suspension and a SRAM drivetrain. The bike is part of Specialized's S-Works range of mountain bikes.Is it moxie? Is it hutzpah? Is it enough raw speed to guarantee motion blur? Actually, the all-new S-Works Era embodies all these qualities, but with some barely contained ‘let’s do this!’ enthusiasm mixed in. Designed and engineered to be the fastest, lightest, and best-fitting women’s full-suspension XC machine, the S-Works Era features FSR suspension, the RockShox RS-1 Brain shock, and lightweight Roval Control SL wheels, and is the only woman’s XC bike that dynamically reads terrain for everything from uphill sprints to singletrack descents.
