Yes, very easy for the crank to catch the door, but also, the hinge .... if you can call it that .... is essentially on the bashguard so inevitably is going to take a few knocks. Just picked up my third door today. Agree with Drewsuf above - this will continue to happen until the redesigned part...
Well ... the inevitable happened. My charger flap thing took off on the breeze the other day. I'm loving the bike overall, and there's not much I'd change, but the charger flap really is a shonky bit of design. No idea how this made it through R&D / testing etc
I ride is West Wales mostly...
Picked up my Expert this week. Managed to get a couple of rides in after work and loving it so far.
Unlike other spesh bikes I've had, there isn't a frame sticker with the frame size on it (S4 / S5 etc). Does anyone know how I can double check this for my frame?
Anyone know the colour of the frame only option?
And the Expert? Seen this dark red colour, but the Expert usually has two options and presume there's an alternative?
Also, be interesting to see if there's a comp carbon option down the track to bring the price point down.
Just under 6'2" as well. Was originally planning on an S4 but my LBS had both an S4 and S5 made up so I took them both out for a spin and against my expectations preferred the feel of the S5. As others have mentioned, despite the long reach figures, the cockpit is smaller than you'd expect when...
Really like the look of this bike but as others have mentioned, not the price. I suppose SC have always been at the 'fookin expensive' end of the spectrum. When it comes down to it, they're priced quite similar to Spesh who seem to be able to shift a ton of eebs at this price point. The S and XT...
Been on exactly the same journey as you on this one. Marz Cr shock blew - had it repaired .... and then blew again a few months later. I took it up to Silverfish / Fox myself and they diagnosed a split in the shock shaft and told me it would be about a 3 month wait until the parts were available...
Yes, frustratingly there doesn't seem to be any further sources of info on the Expert around yet. Spesh Concept store have pulled all the 2021 levos from the site (including all the 2021 FF models) which were all on there when the original link was posted on here. I did have a browse around...
Got to agree with you!
I’ve liked the idea of an Sl since they came out, but couldn’t get past the fact that I’d be paying top dollar for a bike that I’d have to change out fork / shock and brakes etc for the sort of riding I like.
However spec on this one looks pretty good from the off (for...
Mine did exactly the same last month. It's a known issue so I put it through the Fox warranty process myself to save time going back and forth with the dealer. Pretty straight forward and took about two and half weeks all in. Might be worth holding off on shelling out for an alternative if you...
Ah ….. interesting
Had the same chain snap on my 2020 Kenevo Comp about 3 weeks in (so chain had very little wear and well lubed etc). Thought it was a bit unusual at the time, but presumed I must have got a branch caught up in it etc. Wonder if there's a duff batch of KMC X11ET chains out...
