I have the Spez Camber Comp 2013 and IMHO it is by far the best investment one can make. You will want to ride everyday.

Having both Specialized and a KTM Taser 2.0 I would strongly suggest you go Specialized - my KTM has developed stress cracks in the weld between head set and top tube - and no I don't jump the bike - this is after 2 Sani2cs and 2 Wines2Whales with a few training rides in Tokai - it would appear that the KTMs need to work on there build quality ???

Yip and when I get back from 94.7 I intend taking this up with Cycle Lab who sold me the bike - "frame has a life time gaurantee they said " > don't hold your breath hubbers - let's see ???

For that money top spec PYGA with dropper post and 1x11 setup is a no brainer for me. Not carbon, but so what.

I have the 2014 camber expert. It's a winner. No brain, CTD front and back. Comes with the command post internal routed dropper which is awesome and looks way cleaner and cooler than the older droppers. I found out that the Fork is actually a 120mm fork with a spacer so you can adjust it to make it 120mm but I have no intention of doing that because on descend mode it's pretty plush. I really like the bike so far. And the wheels it comes with are awesome.

Awesome!

Hey Rebel.

 

I dont mean to be funny, but can i ask you a super personal question....

 

Which bike makes you get that fizzing feeling in your crotch area?

 

YOu know what i mean right?

 

Which bike makes you smile the most....

 

THAT IS ALWAYS THE RIGHT CHOICE.

 

Reveiws mean d1ck...its how you personally feel when thinking about the bike of your dreams.

 

IMHO

Hi Wayne,

 

I know exactly what you mean & yes no matter what anybody says it will probably not change.

 

I like to hear what people think though, maybe they know of a negative aspect that I am not aware off or have many positives to add.

 

Its easy to get "tunnel vision" when making an investment like this.

Haven't ridden either, but what about the Scott Genius 29er? I would just guess it would be a bit cheaper.

no clue what they go for but the top spec will prob be roughly the same. 130mm travel is a bit to much anyways

As sir wayne said, get what you love and gives you that nice feeling. I have the spez carbon ht and love it. Was looking at a few bikes and got the spez cause I always wanted one and could afford it.

Still no answer for us?

Post your spam and do a runner, sounds like you can't add value to your product yourself.

 

At least answer the OPs question instead of posting links, why don't YOU explain your product and why YOU feel it's a worthy option

I think you made your point the first time – let’s not ask for more sales pitch and rather keep to the topic. If you still feel miffed about the KTM guy putting his hand up, go ride until the red mist fades.

As far as your choices go Rebel, there are bikes in between your current HT and bikes like the Camber or Trigger... such as the Epic if you are keen on a Spaz. It might be already enough suspension for your liking/riding so maybe give that a test as well if you have not considered it previously.

PS. In the end I can only echo the point about going with what gets your blood warm, because that is the bike that will make you want to ride more.
