matt b Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Awesome pic, Mike. Mine hasn't changed configuration much lately, limited racing and what I did was on familiar courses so I kept myself out of trouble. I did grab a spare CF frame on Ebay, in case mine meets the pavement a little too hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruecatinat Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 My most current setup, though it is in the midst of being swapped back to stock as I'm building up a new frame: 2005 Specialized Hardrock Sport w/a few mods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
550 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Respecked(yeah, speck) 2005 Marin Bob Cat trail. -X9 Shifter, rear derailer -Shimano front Der, kept stock cranks -WTB rims, with some hubs... didn't care which needed em cheap for now -Kenda Small block 8's -RaceFace Turbine riser H bar -Loaded 50MM stem and X-lite headset in green. -Avid Ultimate F/R brakes(in white), front has a problem at the moment though so I had to swap to the Juicy 7 front for the trip. -ESI progrips Chunky in green -WTB saddle Manitou R7 fork, added ABS+ damper, and had the lowers powdercoated neon green. Love the thing so much more than the factory spec'd bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattphi Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Thought I'd post these up here. I went to hang out with my buddy at his house for the 4th and this is his parent's collection of bikes (there are many more). I guess since his dad is a 6+ time world champ for water skiing...he gets a lot of free toys. (Andy Mapple) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mesoam Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I'm not keen on specialized any more but there is some nice stuff in that garage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyfishing3 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 matt, you should see if you could low ball him on a road bike, half of that was TT stuff though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyfishing3 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 the white Sworks, the transitions, are for sure, the one black frame could be, but has road bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIK, they're a massive corporation and there are always drawbacks to that but they do pour a lot of money/time into R&D. Have had no problems with mine so far, but it's pretty basic.

Mesoam Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 When I worked @ the LBS they were our big seller. Don't get me wrong they are a lot better than cookie cutters but after selling/servicing/riding them for years I don't think I'll ever own another specialized :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt b Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 My team is sponsored by Specialized: great bikes without any doubt. They don't speak to me like an Italian frame would, but from a technical POV, they are probably one of the very best out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
