I have a 2015 Specialized AWOL Elite (not the one in the photo below). It has OEM fenders and Tubus front/rear racks - a very solid and comfortable bike - 9 speed with brifters, 45mm tires, TRP Spyre mech. disk brakes, 12-36 cassette, 50-39-30 crankset.
The 2019 entry-level AWOL is set-up similarly except for the fenders and racks. It is suitable for heavier riders and off-road or on-road. It carries a front load well using low-rider rack and bags. Mine weighs about 31 lbs. The one in the picture is probably around 28 lbs.
The tire clearance is huge - 55mm+ will fit with no problem - but perhaps not on the OEM rims (inner rim width may not support such a wide tire. ?)
I like the AWOL but it is a tank.
