The all new Specialized Sirrus, yay or nay?

Did you guys see the new Specialized Sirrus X? What are your thoughts about the frame?

I think it looks kind of cool, but I’m always a fan of either the future look or the og beefy look on bikes; as long as it doesn’t cause problems/have weak points where the bike breaks because it’s not durable enough. Overall I like the design assuming it’s durable and works well

$3000 tho... I wouldn't buy it for that. The Sirrus 5 sells for much lower and isn't that far off from this.

I agree, Im a fan of new designs and OG Vintage steel looks too!

Lets see how the Sirrus X stacks up long term, I just wish they used it on a sporty gravel race bike though

Oh yeah, I cant imagine spending that amount on a city bike, maybe the price tag and looks is for marketing buzz to help brand name retention? Haha
