SHIV USER MANUAL
IMPORTANT:
This user manual is specific to your Specialized Shiv bicycle. It contains important safety, performance and technical
information, which you should read before your first ride and keep for reference. You should also read the entire
Specialized Bicycle Owner’s Manual (“Owner’s Manual”), because it has additional important general information and
instructions which you should follow. If you do not have a copy of the Owner’s Manual, you can download it at no cost at
www.specialized.com, or obtain it from your nearest Authorized Specialized Retailer or Specialized Rider Care.
Additional safety, performance and service information for specific components such as suspension or pedals on
your bicycle, or for accessories such as helmets or lights, may also be available. Make sure that your Authorized
Specialized Retailer has given you all the manufacturers’ literature that was included with your bicycle or
accessories. If there is a difference between the instructions in this manual and the information provided by the
component manufacturer, please refer to your Authorized Specialized Retailer.
When reading this user manual, you will note various important symbols and warnings, which are explained below:
WARNING! The combination of this symbol and word indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death. Many of the Warnings say “you
may lose control and fall.” Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not
always repeat the warning of possible injury or death.
CAUTION: The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word CAUTION indicates a potentially
hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or is an alert
against unsafe practices.
The word CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation which, if not avoided,
could result in serious damage to the bicycle or the voiding of your warranty.
INFO: This symbol alerts the reader to information which is particularly important.
GREASE: This symbol means that high quality grease should be applied as illustrated.
CARBON FRICTION PASTE: This symbol means that carbon friction paste should be applied as
illustrated to increase friction.
TORQUE: This symbol highlights the correct torque value for a specific bolt. In order to achieve
the specified torque value, a quality torque wrench must be used.
TECH TIP: Tech Tips are useful tips and tricks regarding installation and use.
INTENDED USE
The Specialized Shiv bicycle is intended and tested for road biking (condition 1) use only. For more information on
intended use and structural weight limits for the frame and components, please refer to the Owner’s Manual.
SUPPLEMENTAL DOCUMENTATION
For additional instructions, please refer to the Carbon Crank Instruction Guide IG0338 and techdocs.shimano.com
for all Shimano guides. Shiv installation videos are also available at http://servicevideos.specialized.com.
GENERAL NOTES ABOUT ASSEMBLY
This manual is not intended as a comprehensive assembly, use, service, repair or maintenance guide. Please see
your Authorized Specialized Retailer for all service, repairs or maintenance. Your Authorized Specialized Retailer
may also be able to refer you to classes, clinics or books on bicycle use, service, repair, and maintenance.

2
WARNING! Due to the high degree of complexity of the Shiv, proper assembly requires a high
degree of mechanical expertise, skill, training and specialty tools. Therefore, it is essential that the
assembly, maintenance and troubleshooting be performed by an Authorized Specialized Retailer.
WARNING! Many components on the Shiv, including, but not limited to, the handlebars, and the
stem, are proprietary to the Shiv. Only use originally supplied components and hardware at all
times. Use of other components or hardware will compromise the integrity and strength of the
assembly. Shiv specific components should only be used on the Shiv and not on other bicycles,
even if they fit. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION: Do not face or ream the bottom bracket shell! This can prevent proper installation
of the crank. Your Specialized frame does not require any bottom bracket shell pre-installation
preparation, as all surfaces have been precisely machined to specific tolerances at the factory
for proper interface with OSBB/BB30 compatible crankset. Please refer to the manufacturer
instructions for crank and bottom bracket installation.
In order to successfully build the Shiv bicycle, it is very important to follow the order of operations
as outlined in this manual. Modifying the order of assembly will result in a longer build process.
BOLT SIZE / TOOLS / TORQUE SPECS
WARNING! Correct tightening force on fasteners (nuts, bolts, screws) on your bicycle is important
for your safety. If too little force is applied, the fastener may not hold securely. If too much force is
applied, the fastener can strip threads, stretch, deform or break. Either way, incorrect tightening
force can result in component failure, which can cause you to lose control and fall.
Where indicated, ensure that each bolt is torqued to specification. After your first ride, and
consistently thereafter, recheck the tightness of each bolt to ensure secure attachment of the
components. The following is a summary of torque specifications in this manual:
LOCATION Allen Key Spec Torque (in-lbf) Torque (Nm)
Stem @ steerer tube 4mm 45 5.1
Stem @ handlebar 4mm 45 5.1

GENERAL NOTES ABOUT MAINTENANCE
The Specialized Shiv is a high performance bicycle. All regular maintenance, troubleshooting, repair and parts
replacement must be performed by an Authorized Specialized Retailer. For general information regarding maintenance
of your bicycle, please refer to the Owner’s Manual. In addition, routinely perform a mechanical safety check before
each ride, as described in the Owner’s Manual.
• Great care should be taken to not damage carbon fiber or composite material. Any damage may result in a loss of structural
integrity, which may result in a catastrophic failure. This damage may or may not be visible in inspection. Before each ride,
and after any crash, you should carefully inspect your bicycle for any fraying, gouging, scratches through the paint, chipping,
bending, or any other signs of damage. Do not ride if your bicycle shows any of these signs. After any crash, and before you
ride any further, take your bicycle to an Authorized Specialized Retailer for a complete inspection.
• While riding, listen for any creaks, as a creak can be a sign of a problem with one or more components. Periodically examine
all surfaces in bright sunlight to check for any small hairline cracks or fatigue at stress points, such as welds, seams, holes,
and points of contact with other parts. If you hear any creaks, see signs of excessive wear, discover any cracks, no matter
how small, or any damage to the bicycle, immediately stop riding the bicycle and have it inspected by your Authorized
Specialized Retailer.
• Lifespan and the type and frequency of maintenance depends on many factors, such as frequency and type of use, rider
weight, riding conditions and/or impacts. Exposure to harsh elements, especially salty air (such as riding near the ocean
or in the winter), can result in galvanic corrosion of components such as the crank spindle and bolts, which can accelerate
wear and shorten the lifespan. Dirt can also accelerate wear of surfaces and bearings. The surfaces of the bicycle should
be cleaned before each ride. The bicycle should also be maintained regularly by an Authorized Specialized Retailer, which
means it should be cleaned, inspected for signs of corrosion and/or cracks and lubricated. If you notice any signs of
corrosion or cracking on the frame or any component, the affected item must be replaced.
• Regularly clean and lubricate the drivetrain according to the drivetrain manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not use a high pressure water spray directly on the bearings. Even water from a garden hose can penetrate bearing seals
and crank interfaces, which can result in increased bearing and crank wear, which can affect the normal function of the
bearings. Use a clean, damp cloth and bicycle cleaning agents for cleaning.
• Do not expose the bicycle to prolonged direct sunlight or excessive heat, such as inside a car parked in the sun or near a
heat source such as a radiator.
WARNING! Failure to follow the instructions in this section may result in damage to the components
on your bicycle and will void your warranty, but, most importantly, may result in serious personal injury
or death. If your bicycle exhibits any signs of damage, do not use it and immediately bring it to your
Authorized Specialized Retailer for inspection.
WARRANTY
A copy of the Specialized Limited Warranty Policy For Bicycles is provided with your bicycle, and is available from
your Authorized Specialized Retailer. It is also available for download at www.specialized.com.

1. FORK / STEM / HANDLEBAR INSTALLATION
1. INSTALLING THE FORK INTO THE STEERER TUBE
Specialized Shiv frames are designed for use with the Specialized aero stem/handlebar combo or a 1 1/8” x 31.8mm
standard stem with the Specialized alloy aero handlebar. The Specialized aero handlebars work specifically with the
handlebar risers and extensions to offer the greatest range of position adjustment.
Before starting the assembly of the bike, install the seatpost in the frame as shown in Chapter 5.
WARNING! When placing the bicycle in a repair stand, clamp the seatpost using a frame clamp
specifically designed for thin-wall carbon tubes (for example, the Park Tools 100-X4 Extreme
Range Clamp). Clamping the seatpost with a standard clamp can cause damage to the seatpost
that may or may not be visible. Do not clamp the frame tubes.
For the initial setup, since the proper height is not yet determined, it is recommended to cut the
steerer tube at the highest position for assembly (2 x 25mm steerer tube spacers), then cut the
fork to the desired height once the build is complete and the bike has been fit to the rider.
To install the Aero stem in the lowest position (without spacers), it is recommended to place a
5mm spacer above the stem to retain enough steerer tube length in the event that a standard 1
1/8” stem is installed.

WARNING! Do not twist the stem onto the carbon steerer tube. This can result in damage to the
fork.
Mark the steerer tube directly above the stem, then remove the fork from the steerer tube. Make a 2nd mark
2mm below the original mark.
Place a steerer tube cutting guide tool on the steerer tube, with the guide slot aligned with the 2nd mark. Double-
check the measurement, so that the mark is 2mm below the top of the stem with 2x25mm spacers installed
below the stem.
Cut the steerer tube (using a carbon cutting blade, or a blade with a minimum 36 teeth) at the cut mark, remove
the tool, then remove any burrs from the top of the steerer using a fine grit sandpaper.
Repeat steps 1 through 7.

If the stem length is not yet determined, it’s recommended to start at the 90mm (or 110mm) position.
Changing the stem from the 60mm to 90mm (or 80mm to 110mm) position will require that the cable
housings be replaced with longer ones to accommodate the additional stem length. It’s easier to trim cable
housings to a shorter length if adjusting from the 90mm to the 60mm (or 110mm to 80mm) position.

WARNING! Do not grease the interface between the stem and the alloy handlebar. Grease may
cause the handlebar to slip, which can result in a loss of control.
All edges of the stem in contact with the steerer tube should be rounded out to eliminate any stress points.
WARNING! Inspect the stem and steerer tube to ensure that there are no burrs or sharp edges.
Remove any burrs or sharp edges using fine grit sandpaper.
SPECIALIZED BRANDED STEMS:
Specialized multi-position stems are equipped with a shim and offer a near-continuous surface contact, which helps to
evenly distribute loads (fig. 2).
Specialized carbon road stems and Barmac Systems have built-in continuous surface contact, which helps to evenly
distribute loads.
Specialized SL stems with large bore holes are specifically designed in conjunction with Specialized forks with
carbon steerer tubes, to ensure proper load distribution (fig.2).
NON-SPECIALIZED BRANDED STEMS:
As we cannot test every combination, Specialized recommends against the use of non-Specialized branded stems
on Specialized carbon steerer forks equipped with Specialized steerer tube plugs, unless specified as original
equipment (fig.2).
WARNING! Non-Specialized stems may not be compatible with Specialized carbon steerer forks.
Failure to follow this warning could result in serious injury or death.

supplied with the fork. Do not use a star nut, as it can damage the inside surface of the steerer
tube. Damage to the steerer tube can result in failure, causing serious personal injury or death.
2. HANDLEBAR EXTENSION / RISER INSTALLATION
WARNING! Aerobars are attached to the front of your bicycle, and as a result, proper and secure
installation is critical for your safety. Improper installation or adjustment may result in an accident
which can cause serious injury or death.
WARNING! Aerobars can require riding positions that are new or different to many riders, which
may cause you to lose control and fall. Continue to look forward while riding and not down towards
the ground. Practice using these aerobars in a low traffic area to become accustomed to any
changes in the steering or handling of your bicycle.
