Specialized's top-tier tech trickles towards mid-tier thanks to two new Torch shoes and a new Propero helmet

New specialized Propero.

While it's often the products at the very top of the tree that make the biggest headlines it’s perhaps those from the mid-range that are most relevant for the vast proportion of us. We have seen Specialized recently launch new Evade and Prevail helmets, aero- and vented-forward models respectively, today it has combined the attributes of both into an updated version of its second-tier Propero helmet. Alongside this, it’s also taken the form of the S-Works Torch shoe that we reviewed back in 2022 and released a Torch 3.0 and Torch 2.0 shoe to suit those on smaller budgets. 

Take the front of the Evade and the back of the Prevail and you get the new Propero 4 (Image credit: Specialized)
