Buying a Specialized Roubaix Expert Ultegra Di2 2017 Road Bike

[Dreamer21]

So my bike was stolen from outside my mates while we went for a run cycle guard agreed to pay out and I've order Specialized Roubaix Expert Ultegra Di2 2017 Road bike
they didn't have the stock in the shop but the manager said they have got the roubiax comp which is the blue frame not the black one and will order all the parts di2 dura ace and sell it to me at the same price. Is there anything I should look out for when picking up the bike as it is a new build bike so he has to put everything in he bike in regards to components.

Cost of the bike £3800

Why can't you write in a normal font?

Why can he not just order in an Expert?

 

[Dreamer21]

They are out of stock as Evans cycles has bought all of them so none available until march

this is just the start .... so start saving again, as soon you will be needing a Garmin sat nav, better tyres .... better wheels .... cool sunglasses .... Lycra .... better saddle .... better bartape etc etc

nice bike though ... I like those


you need a good insurance now .... look at Wiggle ... I pay £18 per month and have 2 of my bikes fully covered for theft, accident, liability etc etc.... well worth the money if you have a good bike

I got cycle insurance already it's about £300 how much is your bikes worth. I already have most of that stuff on the cheap and hoping my other half gonna get me the garmin for my b day

my bikes are cheap .,... a Giant TCR carbon insured for £1250 and an old Specialized S-Works also insured for £1250

but I have loads of extra benefits on the insurance ...(I have the elite package): ... it was not the cheapest, but it insures more than what I was after

No I bought it new back in 2010, it's without doubt the smoothest bike I've ridden. You made an excellent choice.

Your being robbed, you can get it put on the house insurance and not pay anything like that.

This, even as a named item on the policy, insured at home and away
