    I have a white bike. Other people have white bikes, some made by the same company - does that make them the same too?

    Those are the US specific paint jobs, we have different ones entirely, and he's correct in saying that they make identical paint schemes for both.

    But who really cares? I have the 2011 stumpy in red and white and if people think it's a camber i'll only look like a better rider anyway :lol:

    Ah OK so different paint scheme in UK to North America? That's kinda weird (you'd think same paint would mean savings for them no?) OK sorry I agree 2 bikes with the same paint job (or very similar - the black bits on the top tube aren't on the stumpy) is a bit odd but not lazy as they didnt do that for the US market. Just odd!

    But then you can buy the same colour frame for a butcher, nickel, heckler and superlight I believe so....

    Erm they aren't the same paintjob. Similar but not the same, which is a spesh trademark really look at their road bikes all very similar. I think its known as branding, making your product easliy recognisable.

    its a specialized, ergo it will be grey/black/poo or a horrible garish red. End of thread.
