specialized gravel bikes Crux DSW CompThe Crux DSW is more than the lightest alloy gravel bike ever made. Specialized took everything they learned creating the carbon Crux and used their patented DAluisio Smartweld to make it a reality in alloy. Specialized has created the most capable, nimble, balanced, and responsive alloy gravel bike ever made for fast, fun, high performance riding. And yeah, its the lightest too. Some may call it a carbon copy, but we call it the Crux DSW. Lightest

The Crux DSW is more than the lightest alloy gravel bike ever made. Specialized took everything they learned creating the carbon Crux and used their patented D’Aluisio Smartweld to make it a reality in alloy.

Specialized has created the most capable, nimble, balanced, and responsive alloy gravel bike ever made for fast, fun, high-performance riding. And yeah, it’s the lightest too. Some may call it a carbon copy, but we call it the Crux DSW.

Lightest Weight

At just 1399 grams*, the Crux DSW is the lightest alloy gravel frame in the world. Combine that with our Fact12r Crux carbon fork and a build curated for performance, and a complete Crux DSW tips the scales at 9.37kg—no alloy gravel bike can compete.

*56cm in the lightest colorway. Production frames will vary.

Most Capable

More clearance means more capability—that’s why the Crux DSW has the same tire clearance as its carbon sibling—47mm and up to 2.1” on a 650b wheel. Combine this with the tough and light alloy frame, and Crux DSW can take you anywhere you imagine at full gas.

Ultra-Responsive

Responsive at the pedals. Supple in the saddle. Specialized used D’Aluisio Smartweld to fine-tune the properties of alloy to deliver a ride previously impossible without carbon and combine it with the same performance gravel geometry and race-influenced fit as the carbon Crux. A longer reach delivers better weight distribution for quick, confident handling, while a lower stack creates a performance first position. At 72mm of bottom-bracket drop, Specialized hit the sweet spot between nimble and stable.

D’Aluisio Smartweld

D’Aluisio Smartweld - or DSW - is a patented engineering process that uses hydroforming to precisely match tube-to-tube joints for better, stronger welds and, ultimately, a lighter frame that can be twice as durable as a traditional alloy frame. Specialized's Smartweld technique helps Specialized create a unique single-piece downtube and bottom bracket for the Crux, shaving weight and amplifying responsiveness.

FEATURES

Great Value, Cost-Effective, Installs in Minutes
Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas, Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas
This air filter set ended up being a great value and a convenient all-in-one solution for routine maintenance. What stood out right away is how closely these match OEM quality in terms of fit and overall design. Both the engine and cabin filters dropped into place without any issues, and installation was quick and straightforward. It’s the kind of swap that can be done in a short amount of time without needing any special tools, which is always a plus. I also really like that this kit includes both filters together. Since it’s generally best to replace them at the same time, having everything bundled eliminates the need to search for separate parts, compare options, or deal with multiple orders and shipping times. It makes the whole process much more efficient. In terms of performance, I did notice a slight improvement in fuel economy during my regular commute after installation. It’s not a dramatic change, but it’s a nice added benefit and a good indication that the filters are doing their job effectively. Overall build quality seems solid, and everything feels comparable to what you’d expect from a factory replacement. For the price, this is an excellent value and a practical choice for keeping up with regular vehicle maintenance. I’ve been very satisfied with this set so far and would definitely consider purchasing it again when it’s time for the next replacement.

Professional-Grade Filtration for a Factory-Fresh Drive
Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas
If you have a newer 1.5L Civic or CR-V, you know that keeping your engine breathing clean air is the best way to maintain fuel efficiency and long-term reliability. I picked up this Engine and Cabin Air Filter Set for a routine maintenance refresh, and the fit and material quality are indistinguishable from the factory components. It’s a high-quality, "all-in-one" solution that saves a trip to the dealership and keeps your cabin air crisp. Why this filter set is a standout for 1.5L Honda owners: Precise "Lock-Down" Fit (17220-64A-A00): The engine air filter is a perfect drop-in for the 2022–2026 Civic and 2023–2026 CR-V 1.5L gas models. The rubber gasket provides a tight, airtight seal in the airbox, ensuring that no dust or grit bypasses the filter. High-Efficiency H13 Cabin Filtration: The cabin filter (80291-T5R-A01) is noticeably more substantial than some budget options. It does an excellent job of scrubbing out pollen, road dust, and exhaust odors, which is essential if you spend a lot of time on the road or deal with high-humidity environments. Rugged, Deep-Pleat Construction: You can feel the quality in the filter media. The engine filter has consistent, deep pleats that maximize surface area for better airflow, while the cabin filter feels sturdy enough to handle high-velocity AC settings without vibrating or whistling. Direct OEM-Spec Replacement: These are true 1:1 replacements for the factory part numbers. No trimming or "making it fit"—they slide into their respective housings exactly as they should, providing a professional-level service in under 15 minutes. Outstanding Multi-Pack Value: Buying this set is a fraction of the cost of a dealership service. It’s an inexpensive bit of insurance for your engine’s intake system and your own respiratory comfort. ⚠️ Critical Fitment Note: This set is specifically engineered for the 1.5L Gas engines. If you are driving a 2.0L or a Hybrid model, the airbox dimensions are different, so double-check your engine specs before ordering to ensure a 100% compatible fit. Installation Tip: When swapping the cabin filter, look for the "Air Flow" arrow on the side of the filter frame. Ensure it is pointing downward (toward the floor) to match the factory airflow direction. For the engine filter, give the inside of the airbox a quick wipe with a clean microfiber cloth before dropping the new one in to ensure a perfectly clean start.

2 for 1. Great deal over buying separately.
Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas, Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas
At first, I thought this was an average priced item. What I didn't realize is that my year old 2025 CR-V has TWO filters. The normal Panel Air Filter found under the hood and a Cabin Air Filter secreted away behind the glove compartment. The Pane Air Filter alone generally runs from $19.99 to $35.99. Cabin Air Filter runs a little lower in average price but the 2 combined would be nearly double the cost of this kit ($26.99 at time of order). FIT: • These filters fit snugly. Just like the OEM versions. Recommendation: Verify that you have the correct year/model CR-V. These will not fit the Hybrid. VALUE • Great price for both filters. CONCLUSION I don't think I can beat the price of these 2 filters together in a set. I live in an area where Spring tree pollen is often as much as 10X what is generally consider high. Changing filters regularly is a must. I certainly recommend this set for quality and value.

Every bit as good as OEM.
Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas, Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas
These fit my wife's 2026 CRV perfectly. Replacement: No issues whatsoever with installing the cabin or engine air filter and all-told it took all of 5 minutes to replace both filters. Getting to the engine air filter took longer than replacing it. Quality / durability: These filters are every bit as durable and high quality as the OEM filters I replaced them with. When I took each filter out I inspected it to make sure that they were comparable and was pleasantly surprised that there was virtually no difference between the two in construction or the appearance of the membrane. Airflow: The membranes looked nearly identical when held to the light so airflow should be just as good with these new replacement filters as it was with the OEM. I can't believe how good of a value these filters are.
