FIRST LOOK: Specialized Rhyme Expert Carbon 27.5"
The Specialized Rhyme was rolled out earlier this year, bringing a killer women's bike out for aggressive riding.
Earlier this year Specialized had a couple of big launches for their new range of trail bikes. One of the models to crop up was the Specialized Rhyme. While you could call it a women’s Stumpjumper, it’s a bit more than that.
The mainframe is actually the same as the Stumpjumper (and Camber) but the biggest changes are things like contact points, and most importantly, the Rx Trail Tune on the rear shock.
We passed the bike onto AMB’s women’s tester Imogen Smith, who got along with the bike straight away.
The full review will be in Issue 150, out in October. Don’t miss it, subscribe today.
