S-Works and Specialized

Postby northboy » Thu Jul 28, 2011 4:17 pm

maybe a silly question but what is the diff between and S-Works frame and a Specialized frame of the same designation?

Other than stickers and price tag?

It would probably be different carbon weaves, layering and the moulding process.

Marketing wise S-works is to Specialized what HSV is to Holden, Specialized slap 'S-works' on their best stuff.
