The funny thing about this is Spez is in a buying war for retail shops against Trek. Also, Spez technically owns 1/4 of the Outside group through their venture capital arm. Next, we will see Spez bikes for sale on Pinkbike.

I've been saying this since Outside acquired Pinkbike. I'm actually the person who originally posted this connection under the Pinkbike review of the Stumpjumper Evo. So yeah, Specialized effectively now pays the Pinkbike editors wages, which certainly explains a lot of things.

No doubt. I grew up here, learned to ride, and ended up building most of the trails out in MoVal. Moved away and came back in 2011 to LA then OC and back to LA. The ability to just ride all year is almost worth the headache.

Nice. I grew up riding in LA, mostly in the San Gabriel's. There are some world class epics up there.
