Why are you color selections so limited with Specialized? If you don't like the color of the level of bike you want, then you'd have to upgrade or downgrade to get the color you want.
Just curious.

Why are different colors not available on all levels of Spec bikes?

many diff colors but they usually go to other parts of the world.
Well I feel for you here.
When I got my hardrock I'd wished I could have had the color scheme used on the p.1. all mountain rim, black/red
But instead I got speed silver, when I would have rather had black...but it wasn't available on the hardrock sport disc.
Lame.

It wouldn't make sense for big companies to offer each of their models in multiple colors. You'd be lucky to get a particular model offered in two different color schemes. Different color schemes across the model range also help differentiate and identify the models, ie: comp vs elite vs expert.
Custom bike manufacturers on the other hand....

+1 That's marketing for ya.commo_soulja said:
Most marketing departments try to offer a similar product @ different price points. (Bikes) Each consumer falls into a different marketing segment, such as female, or young, or those with money... and let's not forget there are those brand loyal customers. They try to provide each segment with a similar product but still maintain some uniqueness. As far as bikes there are just so may option: color, wheels, drive train, tires, suspension, etc...

Yeah, doesn't make sense... usually the same frame for sport, comp, expert, pro... why different paint? What if you want the pro build, but like the sport color?singletrkmind said:
I guess the alternative would be like Santa Cruz-every bike available in multiple colors/build options... BUT if your color frame isn't in stock you gotta wait for it.
On the other hand, if Specialized would stop all the ridiculous graphics and ugly color schemes, it wouldn't be so hard to be happy with a certain color (flame me if you want, but stuff started getting pretty ugly in '07, IMO).
