Well 2016 large alloy Spartans are sold out. Good news is 2017's are in the warehouse ready to ship. They should be in the store in a few weeks. The new colourways are good as well black on black or team Devinci colours red and orange. So now I guess I am playing the waiting game
What is your source? I am also looking for a 2017 Spartan because i cant get a 2016

Is there any change in the 2017 spartan from the 2016?
The spec is also slightly different. Raceface/Easton Arc30 rims, FSA dropper post, Schwalbe Hans Dampf tires (with the good casing). Price went up a little too ($4999 msrp for the RS build). Perhaps upped manufacturing cost, or maybe just a bit of a premium for having a 2017 bike in July of 2016?

Names have change, teh "RS" kit is now the "GX" kit. they should be arriving at dealers any day now. I juts built our first 2017 devinci yesterday!
I wouldn't consider that a small price increase for the low end carbon. 2016 RS (now GX) MSRP was $3999. $1000 is a big jump. Did the middle or upper builds increase that much?
