those,
who road bikes anymore : )

The standard S-works Enduro? or the S-Works Enduro SL. I know that the
SL is limited ... they are flying them in as they come off the line,
but the S-Works Enduro ... they have a boat load of them in the Utah
warehouse. What's the deal?


It's the SL carbon. Turns out I'll be getting a show bike but it's fork is
non functional. Should get the bike maybe next week. Who knows how long it
will take to get the fork though.

Out of the "blem/demo" pile eh. You must ride a lrg. The fork and
shocks are all done in house. The way it is supposed to work is: You
send yours back ... they send you a rebuilt unit ...and rebuild the
unit that you sent back for the next character. The thought is/was
that it will cut down on turn around time. Only 2 problems I can see.
One, the typical trans boarder lag. Two, if yours did come out of the
blem/demo bike pile the wararanty is worthless, unless the rep is
seriously on your side. I suggest you buy him a beer or ten the next
time he's by.

Beer is a tool.

Turns out it's never been out and about. The fork was non functional, just
a mock up. Better be perfect for the price lol! If it's anything like the
Sworks Tarmac I just picked up it should rock. Never buying another over
priced Italian bike again : )
