on a none roady/sort of related type reply - spesh bikes are amazing, its probably the only mainstream brand id get for a MTB these days (possibly santa cruz if i could afford!)
that looks nice though if road is your thing!

[s]You must be new here. We all have road bikes.[/s]
Edit: OIC Clubber.
Very nice.
You won't get any abuse from me, I've got 2 Spesh road bikes!
I think it's because he's known as a niche wh0re and you don't get much less niche than a spesh.
But I think it's great. A sign of growing as a man that Sheldon can be comfortable with himself and buy such a mainstream product rather than buy something niche for the sake of it.
Of course, several of his niche mates on fb are still struggling with that as far as I could see 😉 Don't worry Sheldon, they'll become better people one day... they're still on the journey, man 😉
small ring/big ring? Non drive side? Wrong crank arm forward? mtb pedals?
*wanders off muttering and tries not to comment on the lawn*
Rule 29
Rule 34
Otherwise, very nice!
Lawn looks a little mossy, though.
Spesh bikes leave me a bit meh. Think of them as the Audi of the bike world. Though I did test ride a Crux the other day and it was bloody brilliant 😕 Sure the Tarmac is equally good.
Clubber don't worry normal service is being resumed as we speak I have another custom MTB on order 🙂
wwaswas, yup, quick snap but I should have know better! And pedals temporary as my CB order only arrived the same day. I need to go and buy some roadie pedals and shoes.
CFH, you're right and will be sorted asap
Jamie, sorry not new here at all but what Clubber said! And I've not really posted much here for a year or so been to busy riding 😉
The bag has to go. I'm sure there is a rule about rainbow stripes on the bike too, or maybe that is just jerseys.
you don't get much less niche than a spesh.
Ahem, my 2 Treks and I beg to differ.....
OP, nice bike, but it's, errm, how shall I put this?, got pink bits on it.....
I'm sure there is a rule about rainbow stripes on the bike too....
Rainbows AND pink?
😉
Nice, looks like a pretty extreme position, I'm guessing you're not from the usual STW demographic?
tarmac's an odd choice of frame material.
The wok probably rests on the top tube so hands on bars are just for the controls rather than supporting weight.. 😉
edit: at least that's how it works with mine.
Genuine LOL, Del 🙂
Nice bike, not sure why everyone has to despise the big manufacturers they bring lots of people into our great hobby, and in the early days the specialized stumpjumper was a very nice and sought after bike.
The Niche Empire appears to be crumbling.
Mainstream is teh new niche!
Nice that - no pissing about with [i]relaxed sportive geometry[/i]!
Not sure about the white deep section wheels though.
Lol @ Del, speak for yourself mate!
Is it black and pink? Or was that photo taken on a Polaroid in 1973?
Looks nice though. I love Spesh, me.
Carbon fibre, with white and Pink.
Thats nice, do like the s-works speshi's, would love a speshi road bike just the price put me off, maybe once the canyon falls apart, but won't be for a while!
no discs?
*walks off disappointed*
no discs?
Not heavy enough to need them 🙂
