Specialized unleashes its Camber

For the 2014 season, the "Camber" is getting wilder, Specialized presents the trail bike as an Evo version with more suspension travel, a lower bottom bracket and in carbon. The new carbon frame will also be available as an "S-Works" version.

The "Camber" was previously known as a sporty trail bike with 110 millimetres of travel. The new "Camber Evo" with 120 millimetres of travel will be seamlessly integrated into the Specialized product range from September. This completes Specialized's very finely graduated range and offers the densest selection of bikes for every trail and every biker, from marathon racers to downhillers. The "Camber Evo" offers a steering angle of 69 degrees, allowing for a more aggressive riding style. The bike is fast and reliable on the trail, but also much more direct compared to its big brother the Stumpjumper.

The new shocks and internally routed cables give the new carbon frame a lightweight look. But it's not just the look that's lighter, the effective weight has also been reduced, as the new carbon version is said to weigh 500 grams less.

Top model Camber S-Works
New in the "Camber" series is the top model S-Works 29, which is also available as a frameset. It is not only the very light frame that is convincing, the higher stiffness, the bottom bracket height of 335 millimetres, the steering angle of 70 degrees and a 450 millimetre short chainstay are worthy of the top model.
