S-Works worth it?

Good advice. However, it is surprisingly difficult to get S-Works models to test ride... Much easier test driving a R150k car than a R150k bicycle... :thumbdown:

Maybe due to the fact that a R150k car is a bottom of the range car ( relatively speaking )  , yet a R150k bike is a top of the range bike !!

 

Buy the S-Works please .....

It's mainly a spec thing, the S-works normally has better parts and is full carbon. Where a regular Camber has an aluminium rear triangle. Talk to Specialized Tygerberg, think there might be a S-Works Camber there in your Elite price range.

Recently bought a camber comp carbon, but was able to test ride the s works in the process. I actually wasn't keen on the lighter s works for trail riding. Was more fun throwing a bit more weight around on the comp carbon. Still climbs like a demon :) I agree with getting the expert and blinging it up.

Buy the Expert, upgrade the Rims to Arch MK3's and get Tyrone to make you some SWorks Stickers

I did that, except I put on Flow MK3's and 780mm bars...quite a nice bike...don't think I'll be making stickers soon though.

I see the OP mention the 2018 Camber, has it been announced/revealed yet? As far as I know not, unless I missed it. Only seen 2018 epic fsr and epic hardtail.

2018 Camber range should be in SA in early September, I'm reliably informed...
