Sirrus X 3.0

For a reliable, quick, and fast bike for commuting around NYC— something to carry me across the bridge but also use for training in off road scenarios. This bike is like magic. It handles extremely well. Shoutout to Bike and Spin in LIC for letting me try out many different specialized models from the Sirrus 2. 0, 3. 0, Allay, etc. I decided on this one and I couldn’t be happier. This bike handles hills like butter and the brakes are smooth. I can ride comfortably for over an hour without feeling pain with this riding position. The black color is stylish but discreet.

Overall build quality and ride smoothness are excellent. Gear control is the best that i have used so far (although, i am not a dedicated hobbyist to be fair). Comes with base setup without any additional accessories bundled into the price that may be not needed, although they are available for a separate purchase. Post-purchase customer service seems to be great - they follow up with support questions, although i did not have a chance to use the support yet.

Love the bike, only reason for four stars are pedals and seat.

Getting back into riding at age 66 after years of owning hardtail MTBs with road tires. I always liked to use hardtail MTBs for road riding because they are rugged and have front suspension and you can jump curbs. My Sirrus X 3. 0 is very comfortable to ride with excellent riding position, stability, and I really appreciate the simplicity of the 1x11 drivetrain. My first Specialized bike and I am very pleased with it.

Getting back in to riding. The bike rides very smooth. It’s been a great change commuting to work. Loving the colour and look of the bike is timeless. Happy riding

I rode a hybrid mountain bike for years but in reality, never truly took it onto trails, I rode almost entirely pavement, stone dust and gravel trails. So I decided to finally get a more appropriate gravel bike. I've been very pleased with the Sirrus X 3 so far, it is far lighter than my old MTB and the drive train is simpler with less to go wrong. I did find the ride a touch stiff so purchased a 3rd party suspension seat post and now the ride is perfect for the places I ride.
