About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
All sizes available at time of posting for pre-ordering.
Considerable pro and con discussion when previously posted.
We bought this bike and have found it great for what it is, have now purchased another in smaller size for 'other half'. Battery lasts well for it's size, it's not a small bike, we purchased a shorter seat post so both of us could use the 'M' sized bike without cutting it down.
First post so maybe things I have missed some details, admins are welcome to correct.
Ordering via Quidco will maybe earn you a few £'s

sorted byOn the full turbo mode, and with the 80% battery saver/max charging point option activated, I was down to 36% on the way there. On the way home, I left it on the medium mode and still had circa 11%, so it's possibly down to calibration.
I've ordered a charger holder off eBay and wall mounted that (forgive the wonky angle, absolutely no idea what happened in between marking it off with a level and drilling it). I took the end flaps off both mud guards as they were fouling the SteadyRack - the front can be done with an allen key, the rear needs the rivets drilling out. Unfortunately my drill contacted the tyre sidewall and burned a hole in it so I've got a £20 replacement tyre from Edinburgh Bicycle Co-Op (Specialized Nimbus 2 Sport so like for like) to fit. It'll be my first time taking the rear wheel off the bike so not looking forward to that.
Have to say, was back out on my gravel bike earlier this morning (circa 9kg) and you can certainly feel the weight of this Specialized in comparison. Was surprised that I wasn't much quicker overall on the Specialized when I'm commuting, though obviously it's a little less effort.
I think this is a good errand bike for someone who already cycles, and the current price is excellent (if not a tacit acknowledgement that they just weren't popular at RRP). If you can get it on CycleScheme as a higher rate taxpayer, you're absolutely laughing but that's a time-based risk I wasn't willing to take on the previous thread.
I wouldn't have it as my only bike though.

Worth mentioning that someone worked out that there is a nail polish that matches perfectly which is great for touching up chips! (edited)
Best way to check (as advised by Evans staff) is to try and add lots to your cart.
I'd be wary of buying on CycleScheme for that reason, though depending on how quickly your employer's payroll team set the schemes up, if the bike went out of stock you may be within the voucher cooling off period.
They may get some more in I guess, I see Specialized have finally discounted it on their own site. (edited)
