2016 Specialized Rhyme FSR Expert Carbon 650b - small

With its FACT carbon main frame, trail-dominating components, and 150mm of women's-specific-tuned travel, Specialized's Rhyme FSR Expert Carbon has everything you need to be crowned Queen of the Mountain. Everywhere you shred, the active FSR suspension keeps your rear wheel glued to the trail on technical climbs and wicked descents. Up front, a tapered steerer, slack head angle, and an outstanding RockShox Pike give you the confidence to crush the hard line, throw it deep into a corner, drag the bars, and ride away with a smile on your face. Specialized's SWAT Door adds a compartment to the downtube to store tools, a tube, and a pump so you're always ready to shred sans pack. Component-wise, a 1 x 11-speed SRAM drivetrain clicks through gears even when you're stomping on the carbon cranks, while the Shimano XT brakes let you wait until the last possible second, then throw the clamps on with precise modulation. Every component and touchpoint of the bike, from handlebars to saddle to crankarm length, is tailored to both women and rider size. Your ride is ready, the throne is yours—now rule!
