Specialized S-Works Evade Helmet Is About More Than Protecting Your Head

S-Works Evade: Wind Tunnel Tested, Ultra-Light Construction. The Ultimate Aerodynamic racing Helmet.

Typically, says Specialized, riders are forced to choose between well ventilated helmets and those that are aerodynamically efficient. Time trial helmets are fast but have limited application because of their size, weight, and lack of ventilation. Road helmets, on the other hand, are extremely lightweight and well ventilated but not terribly aerodynamic. Specialized has collected the brightest minds and used some of the most advanced research and development tools to help riders bridge the gap and stop compromising.

It's a simple rule: the more aerodynamic you are, the faster you can go. The S-Works Evade helmet helps you find those extra seconds that can help you win the race! Specialized wanted to incorporate the benefits of a TT helmet with the benefits of a traditional road helmet into a package that makes sense. Rather than adapt a TT helmet for the road, they decided to start from scratch to make something that is the best of both worlds. The Evade helmet is super lightweight; so it's comfortable, and is just as efficient at air cooling and ventilation as their road helmets.

Specialized included a list of the features and technologies of the Evade helmet:

•Advanced aerodynamics saves 46 seconds over 40km*
•Patented Kevlar-reinforced Inner Matrix for ultra-light construction and energy management
•4th Dimension Cooling System with deep internal channels, massive vents and aligned exhaust ports
•Ultra-light, Mindset micro-dial fit system with height adjustability for perfect fit and comfort
•Tri-Fix web splitter for improved comfort and ease of strap adjustments
•Thin, soft and lightweight 4X DryLite webbing won’t stretch out with sweat or water
•Instrap webbing system for ultra-light construction and security
•Complies with one or more of the following safety standards for bicycle helmets: CPSC, SNELL B90A, CE and AS/NZS

Fitness Goals Have Met Their Match! Women, meet the 2013 Specialized Dolce Comp!

Women that are recreational riders want a bike that will help them achieve their fitness goals without going broke. That's exactly what they can expect in the 2013 Dolce Comp. These women are looking for the kind of bike that offers stability, comfort, and control for their social rides, weekly workout, or first triathlon.

Specialized truly catered to women's needs by outfitting this year's Dolce with plenty of features to help them on their own journey. Check it out:


  • Women's A1 Frame (light weight alloy)
  • S-shaped seatstays and Zertz inserts to increase shock absorption
  • Women's Body Geometry Riva Road Saddle
  • Specialized Comp handlebar
  • Shimano 105 components
  • Shimano Total Integration braking and shift levers
  • Espoir Sport Tires with Blackbelt protection puncture resistance
Geometry is all important, especially when designing women's specific frames. Specialized used a larger down tube to increase stiffness, given the handlebar a shallower bend that allows closer reach, and used a time tested saddle in the BG Riva to ensure the most comfortable ride possible.

That's how you know Specialized is the best.

You have to check this bike out, and we have it at The Spoke Shop. We'll pull one down for you and let you take a test ride so that you can feel the features of this bike, instead of just reading a list.

Come down to see us at 1910 Broadwater Ave. in Billings, Montana. We'd love to help you take the first step towards achieving your fitness goals!
