PSA: Specialized Bikes Sale
Pretty steep discounts for bikes from specialized right now, Stumpy Evo Expert ~$4700 - pretty smoking deal considering the build.

Evidence that bike prices are out of hand: $4700 is a smoking deal.

Was just in a Specialized dealer this morning picking up my new Norco Search XR flat bar gravel bike. If you want a Diverge gravel bike (flat bar or drop bar), you're looking at 18-24 months to get one.

How are you liking your Stumpy Evo? What setting you running in? Thing has a low ass BB no matter how you spin it.

Pretty good all-arounder, running it middle headset, low chainstay setting, and has been quite good for most of the riding in Western WA

If they had this bike in s4 sizing I’d probably pony up and buy one.

PSA: Specialized Bikes Sale
There are a few stores in SLC that have the s4 in stock. Anyone know if specialized stores match the online sales prices?
Edit: Looks like some do
Online sizing advice from specialized.com tool is s5 for me which seems huge. I’m 5’10”

I think the reach on that one is about 440 ish, which is pretty good for me."Poop is funny" - Frank Reynolds

Made the mistake of seeing that sale this morning and finding out they had my size in stock over the hill. Now who needs an ibis Ripmo v2 in XL?

Yes, I can’t resist a sandwich holder. I’m just wanting to try something else after being on the Ripmo for a few years now. And I’m an ugly American consumer.

How the hell are bikes companies having sales when they haven't been able to ship with any reliability for the last 3 years?

rails are for trains

I think they caught up, but the demand is gone. Just a guess. The covid bike heyday couldn’t last forever.

Well those bikes are all spec'd with SRAM components, which have actually had pretty good availability all season, coupled with lower demand than the last two summers. Shimano on the other hand.... my shop is still waiting on many bikes since Rocky Mtn only specs shimano.

Found an s4 here in SLC and pulled the trigger. Super pumped as I’ve been looking for a longer travel bike. Currently on a 2017 transition smuggler. Unfortunately I can’t ride it as I had rotator cuff surgery in May and don’t get clearance until first week of November. It’s like buying skis in early June, which is prime buying time for me.
