I wasn't aware of that model, but looking it up on the Specialized website it looks like a very, very nice bike. Love the fact it's steel, with sensible gearing, mudguards and hydraulic discs.

I've been looking at that model - looks really cool in that light green colour. ticks a lot of boxes for me although the denim saddle and bar tape would need to go.

Did you manage to get any discount on it? Only asking as I am not sure what the position is with this brand. No problem if you don't wish to comment on here.

Very nice bike. Can I ask how much Spa are charging for the wheel upgrade?

Roughly £250 If I remember correctly!

Been riding Elite for couple months now. Has anyone installed rear rack/panniers? Wondering about heel clearance. Love the bike and it does anything I want. Converted to tubeless right away. Going to tour from San Francisco to LA in May. Friends giving grief about minty color so added toothpaste decal
