Bike at Bedtime: check out EvenepoelRemco’s giroditalia iamspecialized S-Works Shiv TT: an aero speed machine with a 60-tooth chainring soudalquickstep cycling
Remco Evenepoel might have lost his Giro d’Italia race lead today but he’s the best placed of the overall GC contenders thanks largely to a dominant performance in the opening time trial which he won by 22 seconds, and this is the Specialized S-Works Shiv TT that he was riding.
Although many bike designers build more or less to the maximum tube depths that UCI rules allow in order to gain an aero benefit, Specialized took a different approach with the Shiv, largely as a result of investment in its own wind tunnel. Along with a library of tube shapes developed using bespoke computer software, Specialized says that the wind tunnel allowed it to balance the competing demands of aerodynamics, weight and stiffness.
An aero seatpost slots into the seat tube, held in place by an internal clamp that’s accessed from the top tube. The bike is compatible with 1x and 2x drivetrains, Evenepoel going for a double chainset and a front derailleur in Italy. The front derailleur hanger is removable for those who want to run a 1x system, as Evenepoel sometimes does. That dinner plate of a chainring is 60t.
As mentioned, the rear wheel is a Roval 321 Disc but that super-deep front wheel isn’t from the Roval range. We could be wrong but it looks like a logo-less AeroCoach Aeox Titan in a 100mm depth, as used by many top teams in search of an aero advantage. > Specialized launches new S-Works Evade 3, Prevail 3 and TT 5 helmets just in time for the Tour de France
