      Also, I figured the ibis "special blend" build kit was a custom deal, but upon closer inspection I see that it's their low end build kit . Steer right clear of that, you can get so much more at that price and those parts aren't worthy of a carbon frame

                    Most definitely, a good price and a really fun versatile bike. Looks great as well

                        @derivative666 great pick up.  Very hard to go wrong with bikes from the big three, Spec, trek and Giant.

                        The 'bang for buck' offered on Specialized bikes is very good.

                        When are you picking it up?  Looking forward to hearing how you find it to ride.

                        There is no 'I' in team …............ however there are five in 'individual brilliance'.

                            What an amazing week I had in Andalucia, if you're planning on going for a training week I strongly recommend Vamos Cycling. The roads were silky smooth and with almost no traffic. Did 550 km with 12 km of vertical ascent in six days in superb company. The weather was a bit cold, but thankfully we only got caught out in the rain during the last two hours of the last day so I'm extremely happy and will definitely go back next year.

                            I'm super-happy with the bike as well, completely fell in love with it during the week. Works flawlessly and rides amazingly.

                                      Thanks , they are super fun to ride  just a single gear non fixed  and 29 inch wheels. The miles just drift by.

                                        Updated the wheels, gearing and drivetrain for the 2015 bike touring season. Got a 700 km five-day trip coming up in a month and at least a week in july. I just love how this bike rides. This is also my winter training bike and can handle anything from cyclocross to fast gravel grinding without a flinch.

                                            Had to snap a pic when one of those rare moments occurred that all of the bikes are clean at the same time.
