Just ordered the exact same bike today. Love the satin with gold. Can't wait for the call from the shop to pick it up. I'm glad to see that yours came with the mastermind tcu. Some 23's don't seem to have it even though Specialized says it comes on the 23 model.
Just bought the same exact bike in store!! 🙌 Super excited to get it out and about!! Ordered the ridewrap matte tailored kit today. @RRW, how did your wrap turnout on the matte colored bike frame? Did you do a gloss or matte wrap on the bike? Curious how the frames matte paint looked after installing the wrap 🤔 Thanks for making this video!! Sorry bout the coffee in the beginning 😮🤪🤣
@@dshizznit9385 the bike is amazing I ordered gloss by accident. But still fitted it. So good as it just add a bit of protection and when the winter comes you will feel better when it covered in mud knowing you have a layer of protection 👌👍👍👍
I collect this exact same colour bike tomorrow (25th Oct) from my local Specialized dealer in S6 size, so very excited. I had ridden the 2022 demo and loved it (in S4), got this new one in 2022 prices.
I got the 2022 comp alloy 2 weeks ago on a good offer and i got the ride wrap invisi frame put on it for better protection and then the seat clamp, spacers, stem to blue hope and tubless valves to blue muc off
That coffee spilling was an accident waiting to happen. Could see that from a mile off. The bike though is a thing of beauty. Enjoy the ride, great video btw.
What size frame did you end up going with I’m undec😮between the s2 and the s3 for multiple reasons but wondering which one you were most comfortable using
Hello, I also have the same bike:) I want to ask about the front fender, what exactly is it, I can't find one here in Slovakia and how it is attached. Thank you, best regards Ondrej
Hi buddy, it just screws onto the back of the forks but I must say it does rattle around a little bit. But here is a link below to the mudguard here in the UK. They may ship abroad.👍👍www.tredz.co.uk/.Fox-Racing-Shox-Fork-36-38-XL-Mudguard-2021_245609.htm
Yes easy to put together. I have had to bleed the brakes after a few rides 👍 I did do the same as I saved a lot of money. 👍 the bike Is totally excellent.
Hi, the front fender does fit with just 2 screws into the back of the forks on the bridge. It is not the best fitment and it does slightly rub the tire. So possibly will remove👍
@@bevangarner I’m also 5’11 and yes, I went for an S3 simply wanted it to be a a bit smaller for when I’m hitting trails. But to be honest I don’t think it would make a massive difference between an S3 or an S4. The bike is just truly brilliant. I’ve had many trails now with it and it makes life so much more fun.
@@RRW can get it at 4750 at my local dealer so think I’m going to pull the plug on it! So much choice out there at the min. Shame you haven’t done any more videos on it 👍🏻
