I would say anything 2001 and earlier qualifies currently.

She does, but she uses a dh bike more than I do, so it makes sense she has a better bike.

Hi, pretty rare Specialized FSR dual slalom Shaun Palmer edition. It's a 2000 or 2001 model. I'm not really an active member but because this bike seems to be so rare I wanted to share it anyway..

In Sweden it was sold as the Specialized S-Works dual slalom. It was sold as a framekit only, I have no idea on how many were made or what they were marketed as outside of Sweden.

I think this was not a framekit. The guy I've bought the bike from said it was an factory team build bike. He got it from the (Dutch?) Specialized team. The guy stated he was visiting events along with the Dutch teamriders. Don't know if that's true though, to be honest I am a newby in the sport...

What I do know is that when I bought it, the bike came with the same brakes, handlebar, seat, suspension and tires as the team bikes have. The guy also had specialized team clothing which he did not want to sell me Wink .

Teamriders rode it, thats for sure, but it was sold as a frame kit in Sweden, and probably in more countrys.
As memory serves teamriders rode it with Hayes brakes, Manitou X-vert forks, Answer ProTaper gold handlebars, Shimano gears and Mavic DeeMax wheelset.
