Specialized Crux brake pad questions
The correct pad depends on the exact Crux build and model year. Select the complete bike above and confirm the marking printed on the fitted caliper before ordering.
No. Verified Crux builds use different SRAM road and Shimano GRX brake systems. Match the complete model and year rather than ordering from the frame name alone.
A bike image is shown only when the linked source identifies the exact model and year and exposes a primary image. Records tied only to a family listing, a mismatched year or a source without a primary image stay image-free rather than showing a similar-looking bike.
The verified collection contains the Gorilla Brakes compounds available for that pad shape, allowing you to choose the compound that suits your riding and conditions.
