The stays are too strait there is no clearance once the swingarm pivots up. This is not the first specialized built that way.its probably have a direct mount derailleur mount, if you want to go Shimano
Good point.you might be right, but they also have placed the mount on the chainstays.

Of course they are, no matter how much the 'engineers' said they saw no value in a 650b bike, the 'marketing' guys saw dollar signs going out the door. It's not about innovation, it's about money.lol, specialized said before they won't make 650b bikes and they will stick with their 29er. now they are eating their words lol.
Innovate or die! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAOf course they are, no matter how much the 'engineers' said they saw no value in a 650b bike, the 'marketing' guys saw dollar signs going out the door. It's not about innovation, it's about money.
I was looking for 650b, stopped by Spec and they put me on a nice 29 with the toolkit. WTF? Swiss Army bike? Maybe they could incorporate a bladder, bit valve, and bento box.now they are hyping how you can carry tools on your bike.
It's your money, want to reward the bullies who do nothing more than follow others leads, go for it.Ha, you big S haters are slacking, it took you over 24 hours to start chiming in. Please, carry on![]()
Yeah, and in 2006-2007 or so they said thing about 29ers.Of course they are, no matter how much the 'engineers' said they saw no value in a 650b bike, the 'marketing' guys saw dollar signs going out the door. It's not about innovation, it's about money.
Now that's more like it! I was a bit disappointed by the barely snarky earlier comments, this however is definitely a step in the right direction, just a hint of vitriol with light dusting of personal shaming, excellent.It's your money, want to reward the bullies who do nothing more than follow others leads, go for it.
