Specialized Status 140 2022 Modell

A new breed of trail bike

Of course you can decide whether you want to continue with the status quo or go a different route. With the new Status 140, Specialized opts for the latter. The result? Not just a new bike, but a whole new platform that changed their entire understanding of what an all-rounder can actually do.

But what about the different wheel sizes? Glad you asked. Combine the shorter wheelbase and chainstays of a 27.5″ rear wheel with the increased traction and rollover of a 29″ front wheel and you have a bike that can throw you down any line. But you can also see it as the ability to quickly plow through the flat right-hand bend, only to have breakfast on the technical hairpin turn on the left shortly afterwards, to pull random straights in the longer than expected rock garden without a drop of sweat, or to have a lot of tact on your flow trails and show off your style. And all with a single platform.

The Status 140 adopts Specialized's riding style-specific sizing to not only provide you with the perfect frame size, but also the desired reach and wheelbase for your preferred handling.

highlights

• The fun-oriented Status frame set with Specialized's Trail Geometry for different wheel sizes does without superfluous frills and the FSR rear triangle offers plenty of opportunity for thrills. Made from their durable and resilient M5 aluminum, it not only takes a beating, it demands more
• The Float 36 Rhythm by FOX with grip damper is at the service of all trail rowdies. Impressively controlled, the entire suspension travel is used to give you the absolute trail feeling of speed and confidence. The two-position sweep setting ensures that this suspension fork makes perfect use of the 140 mm of travel in almost any terrain, while the 36 mm diameter stanchions promise plenty of stiffness for precise handling at the limit
• The high-quality chassis generates enormous speeds downhill. To ensure that you arrive safely at the bottom, the proven Code R brakes from SRAM take care of the deceleration. The forged 4-piston calipers offer incredible stopping power, while 200mm diameter brake discs front and rear make fading a thing of the past
