You should definitely call them because your order should of shipped by now. I ordered Flow Aug 22 and its on its way. You're in that order window where your bike should of shipped.Wow you got lucky!

Not that I am aware of. Does anyone know if the SRAM is equivalent to the Shimano? The spec page on the Espin website still says Shimano Altus and Kenda Komfort 1.95 tires. I havent ridden it yet, but I am curious how it rides compared to my Sport.......That's interesting. Did they tell you ahead of time about the components change?

Just received a text message from FEDEX about tomorrow delivery. I will check my sport when i get the package.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I didn't have time to try a test ride today but Im going to jump on Sport 2 pretty soon and compare. The tires are definitely wider and bigger knobbies. Not sure if I don't prefer the Kendas better for street riding...According to the chart, the SRAM X4 is one level higher than the Altus... pedaling harder in PAS 5 and 8th may actually be better because you can go faster?
I wouldn't give up on Espin just yet. I have ordered and received 2 bikes from them and have found them to be responsive and honest. Who are you dealing with at the company? My contact has been Yves and he has been outstanding...Anyone still not received theirs? I've been emailing espin repeatedly and just get copy and paste answers. They claimed that it would be shipped out today but alas no updates to the tracking number still.
I've just about had it with this shady company.
Unfortunately that's actually who I've been dealing with as well. Seems it's totally random who they're willing to help and who they aren't.I wouldn't give up on Espin just yet.

I've been emailing daily and all I want is just an honest answer and they're unwilling to give that.
Sport, all the way back around August 12Did you order Flow or Sport?

Sacramento, CAWhere are you located?
Received the Fedex package yesterday with the Sport. Still waiting to hear from Espin about the Flow. Box and contents were in fine shape with no apparent shipping damage. Bike was well packaged to avoid shipping damage. Rear cassette is SRAM X4 (have not yet checked the gear ratios) and the tires are CST Blackjack 27.5X1.95. The CST's are the same width as the Kenda's. The CST look to be better suited for compact gravel riding and combination road/slightly loose surfaces. Once I get the bike assembled over the weekend and put in a few miles, I will post my observations and comments.View attachment 72344
