Congrats!!! I know when I got my first high end bike the first night I would go down to the garage and just sit and look at my bike. Kinda like how a father looks at his newborn the first night their home. Now post pics please

Congrats, hope to ride with ya soon.

Whatever bike you got, if it is not a 29er singlespeed, Jose will say it's ghey. Except, you won't be able to read what Jose writes because no one can understand what he types. Trust me, Jose thinks your bike is ghey.

Is it an 08? Looks brand new cause it has the brake lever stickers on there still

Don't forget to remove the reflectors! Looks great. Can't wait to see it on the dirt.

What you planning for its inaugural ride?

That's got to be the '08. The paint looks just like mine. I love it.

Those tires are killer too. "The Captain"

I know exactly how you feel. I got my 2007 SJ FSR Comp about 2 weeks ago, and upgrading from a 1994 Stumpy Hardtail to this was heaven.

I literally felt like I was 12 again at Christmas.

08 FSR XC Pro

you got good eyes for those lever stickers, i didnt know its there. inaugural ride would've been the FRED ride last saturday but the shop made a boo boo.

i feel like going out just to take it for a spin, maybe lake perris.

And this one deserve a cold

To the new Specialized riders in here!

I got a Enduro SL Expert in May of this year, and I love my bike. It was my first mtn bike for actual trail riding, so I had nothing really to compare it to. But it is certainly more bike than I need, and probably for years to come.

Congrats on your new bikes guys, and ride the Speshes with pride!

Right on - you can't go wrong with a bike like that. The only drawback now is lack of a good excuse for not riding like a crazy boy. I'm going to be purchasing a new bike in about a month - first one in over 10 years!! - and I'm in the bicycle industry! Well, the beach cruisers and choppers we sell aren't exactly trail-ready....Congrats!!!

Nothing outside of having a new baby beats getting a new bike.
