  • 2013 Specialized Epic Marathon …can't make my mind up.

    I’ve been offered a 6 month old Specialized Epic Marathon for around £2.5K. These retailed for around £5K 6 months ago.
    It’s been used a few times.

    I want it for endurance races. 40-60km in a few hours covering xc trails. I use my Stump Jumper 26″ or Camber 26″ at the moment. I’m sure going lighter will help a bit.

    I should probably just snap this bike up but I’m dithering. So I need to know whether it’s a no brainer or having a longer think is a good idea.

    If it’s in perfect nick, offer £2k.

    Whether you need it is your problem I’m afraid. 😉

    Yeah, I have plenty of use for it. It’s just a matter of timing really. I was sitting out buying a new bike for a few months.

    But will another similar good deal be around when you are ready to buy…?

    Buy it and get rid of the Camber.

    I honestly reckon for Endurance Racing something like a 29″ Epic would take 5-10 minutes off your time V’s a 26″ Camber.

    Looks like a no brainier to me if you’ve got the funds.
