do my eyes deceive me, or is the rear gear cable running along the chainstay? Looks like a very sharp angle to the mech.

It is running under the chainstay. Nothing unusual about that? Does on my Blur LT anyway.

Looks like a really tight angle to the mech for that cable. meh, I'm sure Specialized know what they're doing better than I do 🙂

The cable comes in on a pully, hence no need for a big loop. SRAM x-9. Need to go find a step to ride off now.

The green is a bit too eye catching for me. Its a running theme on everything unfortunatley. Green spoke nipples, saddle rail, quick release, writing on wheels, forks, lock on grip clamp.....

If anyone is interested, it weighs 31 lbs with cheap plastic pedals, all the reflectors and bell. (Large)

Going to shift the thomson stem, thomson post, easton bars, and chris king headset over from the Blur to give it some bling.

Looks nice to me.
The brake cable on my 2010 Stumpjumper FSR looks exactly the same. Still not got round to trimming it.

Have fun!
