I have a dilemma…
In the market for my first emtb and have narrowed it down to these two bikes. I have managed to agree a deal on the Specialized for £3,800 or my local Trek dealer has a Rail 9.8 XT in my size that they will put a frame wrap on it for £5,200.
I had originally decided I wanted the Rail 7 as I liked the Bosch motor and the ease of removing the battery (I have no power in my garage so need to charge inside). But I rode the Spesh earlier and was impressed by it as well as the suspension. Then this deal on the 9.8 came along and it did feel a lot more premium than the Spesh!
Really torn on what to do so would appreciate any advice on owners of either bikes!
