They say that every journey begins with a single step, but when that journey is related to exercise, that first step can sure be a doozy. It can be life-changing, however, and there's no better machine to take the plunge with than with the Roll.
It has everything you need to help you along your journey of being the fitter, better you. Wide, traction-packed tires? Check. A comfortable, upright geometry that keeps a smile on your face, even when the times get tough? You know it. Reliable components and a frame that'll stand up to the elements? It's all there in a package that's pretty on the eyes and a joy to ride.
- The Roll is made of Specialized's A1 Premium Aluminum, and it features Ground Control Positioning that makes it easy to put a foot down when stopped. This Roll also comes ready with rack/fender mounts.
- Wide diameter, 650b x 2.3" Nimbus II Sport tires provide excellent traction, stability, and cushioning, which creates a safer, more reliable, and more comfortable ride on either paved or dirt roads. Plus, the reflective accents of the tire increase your visibility to motorists in low-light conditions.
- Equipped with Body Geometry "The Cup" saddle, you can expect a supreme level of comfort anywhere you take the Roll. It delivers on these expectations by "cupping" your sit bones, which reduces pressure without feeling obtrusive or constraining.
