    i was going to ask you a while back just how many gts does a man need, especially how many zaskars thn i realised i have 4 specialized bikes and 2 of those are stumpjumpers fsrs!!

    it might have become an adiction now and dont tell anyone (because i hate all hardtails dont forget) but i really fancy something like a little p2 just to finish everything off

  • What's going on with the saddle on the road bike, setup a bit different from all the others...

    Ah but when you consider the sag on the forks i bet they are all similar.

    yeah, dont know why but it feels more comfy like that, i'm still getting to grips with the bike though so there is every chance it will change.
  • Think I'd take the reflectors off the wheels and pedals too, but I'm sure someone will point out how well they show up in the dark. Depends what you use the bike for I guess.

    But cool that's a cool "rake" of bikes you have there, I've always liked Spesh, got two of their road bikes. A '07 Tarmac SL and a '91 Allez Epic, the difference betweem the two is quite staggering. Never tried a Spesh mountain bike, maybe that should be the next purchase?

    a perfect example of my theory!

    perfect number of bikes = current number of bikes +1

    So true.


    sheepsteeth, Nice stable. I love the Specialized range too. Although, I broke trend, and got an Intense 6.6. First time I went to inflate the rear shock, it leaked. Haven't even ridden it yet... Damn it!

    So.... THATS why I spent all those years buying Specialized...

    Nice work 8)

    here is the new bike too, i very nearly didnt buy a specialized as there were better alternatives off the shelf but by buying second hand i managed to get a bit of bargain so it was business as usual and now i have another spesh.

    im very happy with them, new pics of the p1 will be up tomorrow probs as ive done a few things to it already.

    your enduro is a lovely looking bit of kit, its a shame spesh went from making one of the best bikes ever to the current enduro, it should really have been given a new name as it was never really the same bike (until i finished with it of course..................)

    cheers, im very happy with them, i know i am a bit of a fanboi but they are honestly the bikes i would choose regardless of the brand. the p1 probably would have lost out to another better bike if it wasnt for the fact i managed to get it nicely upgraded by buying second hand.
