Hurts. Requires Money. And is nerdy.
This one comes in black though.
And angular contact linkage bearings!

Why bother with flash bearings when they still use bushings. On my warden if i tighten the bushing pivots to the prescribed torque the linkage barely moves. I asked knolly and their response was that when a rider's weight is on the friction is overcome. Which is fine, but jeez it goes in the face of speccing a kashima coat rear shock for reduction in stiction when the bushings have such a load to overcome.
Personally, the bushings put me off. I wont buy another bushing bike if i can help it
Sounds like a poor tolerance implementation rather than a fundamental problem with bushings as a design solution for high load, low rotation pivots.

I hear Arthur Fonzarelli is fitting a motor to one while the tank is filled with water.

They probably saw all the $12k ebikes coming out and realised that dentists can afford even more.

In more Specialized proprietary fcukwittery they’ve even developed their own sizing system.

They list the geometry...... why is S,M,L etc so relevant vs 1,2,3,4 or a,b,c,d etc?

That Enduro design, the small details, are rather superb:

Not the first to run cables like that. I'd prefer the cables exited further back and entered the chainstay on the interior side if they were going for straight out cleanliness, looks like that linkage may complicate things a bit though. Those grommets look tight as well, that'll keep the muck out.

My point wasn't about the cable runs! Look at all the detail.

Another bike weighed without pedals?

Just add your pedal weight of choice!

Trek’s new Fuel EX has its own version of a SWAT box...

Review: Trek's All-New 2020 Fuel EX Trail Bike - Pinkbike
Trek's trail bike gets an all-new frame with tweaked suspension and fresh geometry, but where does sit compared to the competition?

Aye. 
And a terrific review at that too.

And a lunchbox. I love the lunchbox. I wish everyone had a lunchbox but just like FSR they'd likely need to pay Specialized for the privelege.
