Specialized

Specialized has become one of the largest bicycle brands in the world.

Today, Specialized produces bikes for all levels of riders, from kids to adults. In addition, Specialized builds bikes designed specifically for women.

In recent years, many riders have used Specialized bicycles in the professional cycling circuits of North America and Europe, including the Tour de France. Specialized sponsors many teams and cyclists, supplies them with their frames, forks, and helmets. Their S-Works Tarmac and Amira can be used for most road races, the S-Works Roubaix for cobbled classics, and the Shiv TT in time trials.

As an official dealer, Higher Gear in Wilmette and Highland Park carries all levels of Specialized bikes, shoes, and helmets.

Given their sponsorships and involvement in many races, Specialized also has a great online community, including a Win Counter – so if you win a race on a Specialized, share your story.
