Through a team buy I bought a 08 Tarmac Pro. The deal was too good to pass up. I wanted an S-Works but the deal was not as good on that purchase. I will pick it up in about a week so you will have to wait for pics.:p This is a bit different then the expert I bought a few months ago, I got a compact crank on this one as a clibing bike. It also comes with those weird specialized star roval wheels which are supposed to be really aero.:D

But it looks just like this one

Do you have any room in your place for your bikes? You have enough to open a bike shop.

Actually I am selling alot off. The Madone sold last month. I am taking the Look apart and selling all of it as well. So one in one out. I also have 2 mt bikes for sale. My fleet is almost exclusively Specialized now.:D

Flip it. ;) Are the specs the same as the website for the Tarmac Pro in Raw finish? Looks like a killer ride!

It is flipped. Some of the components may be different. The Specialized Carbon crank and wheels are new on the 08. But I think the site has the current specs, so yes. All Dura Ace except the brake calipers and fron derailer.

I wont get the bike till next weekend. Then I will post some pics. But the raw carbon looks pretty sweet. Im most excited about the wheels. They say they are really fast and aero. I already checked and they are definately stiff.

How about $350

Watch out for the Moderator Police -- they want you to sell stuff on another forum. Try the PM feature for best results! :rolleyes:
