I dropped into that store once to check out the new Enduro. They didn't have any in stock and the salesman then preceded to tell me how Specialized run 650B wheels not like the other brands who run 27.5 which don't roll as well o_O
That's the time when I call sale reps a profanity and just walk off.

Merry fucking Xmas to you assholes
Innovate or die. Surely Specialized wouldn't have used that slogan if they didn't mean it?
Like protecting and marketing the shit out of FSR because it's fundamentally different from every other four bar linkage out there.

Or do you mean like using Giant's factories and making out like their secret herbs and spices are better.

Or do you mean constantly foisting dumb proprietry shock standards on their customers?

There's a surprisingly large number of bike shops like that.

sad really if you believe the stuff about low margins on the bikes then any sale must be good?
or am I being silly, again, or as usual

Have you narrowed down the bikes you're looking to buy or is that for another thread ?:D

I don't think so. You dont get out of things that easily...this thread won't be closed until you're posting up some porn of your fresh ride!

Our advice isn't free you know, you've got to come through with the goods.
....failing the photo of 'wheels off the ground', I'd accept a pic of gravel rash, blood, knee carnage or a medical x-ray as proof of new bike ownership.
