Specialized bikes, **** or what?

[Tj Poseno]

Looking into buying a Spcialized bike, they seem fairly priced, and im coming off a ROADMASTER (SICK
OF ****) so what do they have that is cheap, dual suspension, and not ****.

Cheap, dual suspension that's not ****?? That's a non-sequiteur. Good dual suspension bikes are not
cheap. Count on $1000 minimum. Specialized make pretty fair bikes, for what it's worth. What's your
definition of cheap?

Cheers,

They have been in business for a long time and make a wide range of bikes. I've got a couple
of thier bikes, one road one mtb, and I am happy with both of them. I would not hesitate
buying another.

For the money, Enduros and BigHits could fairly be described as cheap, dual suspension and not ****,
whereas Epics aren't such great value.

specialized bikes are going to last, or are they just junk.

No, Specialized are good bikes generally, in the upper range of quality. You'll be quite happy
with one I suspect. Price-wise though, you'll have to spend some bucks to get one. We used to sell
Specialized and I came very close to buying an M2 hardtail..I rode a few of them and I really
liked the bike. It suited my style and fit. Try a few and make sure you get the right size and you
won't be disappointed. Keep in mind though, if you do 6' drops and you're clumsy, any bike will
explode!! ;-)
