Does anyone know of a bike shop in Europe where i can mail order a Specialized Enduro 2012? Ideally through website based ordering system! Hibike in Germany do it, but they dont deliver, you have to collect from store.
I only ask as Spesh UK aren't bringing in air sprung Enduros this year.

Dont think you can do it, when we wanted a bike that wasnt available in UK we had to go to France to pick it up. We arranged it over the phone and had a weekend away
Try calling Spesh 0208 3913517.
Spesh UK were most unhelpful on requests like this when I was looking for a S Works Enduro frame set.

These were helpfull
Missed out on a new 2011 S Works Enduro frameset on Ebay last night
Some shops still have good deals on the 2011 ones
Who did you use in France Tracy?
Spesh UK suggested buying in Europe
We picked it up from a bike shop in Lille. If you go onto the Specialized Europe web site you can find the shops and then its finding one that will order it. We had to pay a 50% deposit and the rest when we picked it up

If you're in the North of the UK, it may be worth checking out the Rotterdam dealers?
Easy to get to via ferry from Hull and they'll likely speak English
So they have stopped making the pitch and arr not selling any air enduros? Craziness
Not when there's a 160mm Stumpjumper Evo filling that void nicely.
Eurostar to Lille is probably the best bet - they're not allowed to ship internationally.
Did the bike shop in lille speak English? My French is rubbish!

Isn't it 150mm and comes with a Revelation? And prices start at £2.5k?
Sorry, I still think they're crazy.

I want to use 36mm forks not 32mm so not really interested in the stumpjumper.
Welcome to the pain of Specialized! I get mine form the USA and take cheap breaks out there....SEMA in Vegas coincides with new year models as it happens. Just picked up my 2012 SXT 🙂
I tried recently to order some clutch & butcher control tyres (each coming on various UK 2012 models as fancied something other than purgs / eskars) via specialized UK - I might as well have been ordering plutonium or something.
I eventually found a few dealers in america and they point blank refused to export them ... *shrug*

what's the customs duty like coming back in?
Hey vikingboy nice thread in mtbr by the way...
Specialized are a bit like Trek - they won't do mail order. I think 'fair enough' as it does actually support real bike shops.

But you can't even special order models (through a shop) that aren't available over here. I'd be riding a Specialized now if that was the case.
unfortunatly specialized uk have to decide what they are going to bring in for each season at the beginning of the season and order how much they think they are going to sell, therefore if its not something they have decided to bring in to begin with, they cant order it. same with specialized europe, they just seem to order a lot more than uk, and usually in better colours
