Forum newbie so be kind....
I'm looking to buy a Specialized Diverge Sport and have the choice of the 2016 spec for £712 (was £950) or the 2017 spec for £800 as they've dropped the price for this year.
As far as I can tell, they are identical bar the following specs:
Crankset - Sora (2016) Praxis Alba (2017)
Brakes - Tektro Spyre (2016) Tektro Mira (2017)
Wheelset - Axis Classic (2016) Axis Sport (2017)
To my untrained eye the 2016 spec appears slightly better, but would be interested to know what people think?

The previous years bikes are normally better value with at least the same spec for less money. The 2016 has proven quality components , not sure about the 2017. Also have a look at similar bikes like a GT grade.
I have a diverge comp and it is very smooth on road, fast downhill and rides well off road until the trail roughens up.0
