Notice Regarding Counterfeit Tarmac Framesets
Genuine Specialized bicycles and framesets are carefully designed, engineered, and tested to meet stringent internal and international standards and are sold exclusively through Authorized Specialized Dealers.
The only way to be certain that a Specialized bicycle is authentic--and the only way its warranty will be valid--is to purchase it from an Authorized Specialized Dealer.
Online auction sites such as eBay are NOT Authorized Specialized Dealers. Furthermore, Specialized has identified cases where counterfeit products have been sold on eBay.
For example, Specialized has learned of fake 2007 52cm S-Works Tarmac Framesets being sold on eBay as new in both Red and Blue colors. These frames and forks are not safe, should not be ridden, and are not under warranty.
The counterfeit framesets we have identified thus far have the following incorrect characteristics:
No serial numbers on frame and/or fork
Fork serial number under crown
The following combination of serial number on frame or fork could identify a fake:
-Frame serial number under bottom bracket starting with STT27Fxxxx
-Fork serial number under fork crown starting with K87Hxxxx
No yellow safety warning decal on left side of lower seat tube
No yellow warning decal on inside left leg of fork
If you have any question regarding the authenticity of a Specialized product, please contact your Specialized Dealer. |
