At a glance

The 2017 Specialized Rhyme Comp 650b is an Trail mountain bike. It has RockShox suspension and a SRAM drivetrain. The bike is part of Specialized's Rhyme range of mountain bikes.

Just because you ride hard on the trail doesn’t mean that you want to take out a second mortgage just to get a capable trail bike. We get it, and that’s why our Rhyme Comp 650b gives you revolutionary tech and performance in a package with an obvious value. It features our proprietary trail shock tune for women, Women’s Rx Tune, that’s tailored to give women the best suspension performance possible. At the frame, you’ll find a M5 alloy construction that’s lightweight, durable, and extremely nimble. And when you combine a size-specific mix of SRAM and Shimano’s most durable components, a pressure-relieving Body Geometry Myth saddle, and our ultra-nimble, confidence inspiring Trail 650b Geometry, you’re looking at the future of trail bikes.
