Mountain Biking - Specialized Enduro Small frame sold out?

Greetings, this is my first post in this forum. :)

Recently I have been looking hard for a new 2004 Specialized Enduro S-Works in Small size frame.

I live in San Francisco Bay Area, CA. A couple dealers told me that all Small size Enduro's (any Enduro trim model) are sold out for this year, and I would need to wait for the 2005 models.

Is it true, or just the dealers couldn't allocate one for me?

Thanks for any help, with best regards,
- Alex.

I don't work in a shop anymore... but when I did (last few years) specialized was known for selling outa certain models like that.

I can't imagine a shop would BS you like that... most have easy access to specialized and can check their inventory easily, so more than likely what they are telling you is true. :(

Good luck and I hope you find one!

What a bummer that after spending so much time deciding on the bike to get, but only finding out that the bike is sold out for the year... :(

Thanks again. Regards,

I don't think it's worth the money if you choose small size. For the small size Enduro, you'll get a smaller crank shaft, and the frame is like 10 cm shorter than medium, I don't know your height, but I am like 5'6" and I have medium Enduro. I love my Enduro, it's the 04 Enduro Expert, just got it for 2 months. Hey I am in San Francisco too, didn't you check out the Speicailized dealer store at Sunset?

Thanks for the info,

I am not a big guy (5'4"). I have tried, back and forward, on the Medium and Size size (to be exact, a small size FSR cuz no dealer seemed to have a small Enduro for me to try on :( )... By the end of the day, I still found myself more comfortable and confident on the Small size frame...

I haven't checked-out the dealer at Sunset (I checked out the ones in Palo Alto and SanMateo), but I will give it a visit. Thanks.

Alex, just for your own info, I live in the Tampa Bay area (Florida) and there is a shop that has a very slightly used Enduro Expert in a small frame. I know it isn't a S-Works but just thought you might be intrested. University Bicycle Center, PH. (813) 971-2277 or Fax. (813) 977-2440 or toll free 1-800-881-2472. Jim.
