Feast your eyes on the new Specialized S-Works Shiv Disc from Olympian-turned-Ironman-racer Sarah True. True collected her new steed from Specialized HQ last week during the Zwift Tri Academy team training camp, for which she is a mentor alongside Tim Don. The S-Works Shiv Disc was first unveiled at Kona last year, but only 500 of that limited-edition, limited-colorway frames were made. Specialized’s five sponsored pro triathletes (True, Don, Lucy Charles-Barclay, Braden Currie, and Javier Gomez) received the first of those frames, which, depending on the light looked a multitude of colors. The remaining 495 were all sold within days of the frame being launched. This new black frame will be the standard issue going forward.
