When I first heard I had the chance to test-ride the 2012 Specialized Crux Comp Disc I wondered if it was even worth my time. I’ve been riding/racing on a traditional cantilever equipped Crux for the last ten weeks or so – but I soon realized this was my chance to check out disc brakes on a cyclocross bike and be ‘that guy,’ the over-equipped Cat CX3 racer with a complete pit bike, so I jumped on board.
My test model arrived the week before Thanksgiving, finding me with my family in town thus skipping the Hendersonville NCCX and no racing otherwise for at least a few weeks. Nonetheless, I got it assembled, then adjusted and began studying the small details. Soon after, I began putting in some miles, both CX training/racing and good ole fashioned dirt road riding. Of course I started with some photos and checked in with the scale, so keep on reading for weights, more details and my first impressions…
