The Specialized Dolce Sport is a women’s road bike that offers professional levels of performance and a competent set up at a price point, which should be appealing to people who are looking to develop their skills. With an aluminium frame, carbon forks and components from Shimano, Tektro and many more, it will make a name for itself as a competitively priced road racer.
The compact design of the aluminium frame is paired with the Specialized FACT carbon forks to give it great strength as well as enhanced lightness. The tyres are ready to roll no matter what the condition of the road ahead and the poise riding position gives you the ability to make the most of your exertions in competitive situations.
The red and white paint job of the Specialized Dolce Sport makes it easy to spot and it does not have any overt branding to worry about, so as an aesthetic package, it is definitely amongst the best in its class.
