Why no Diverge expert 2018 in the UK (and other places)

The spirit of Grav-lo-cross. No but seriously, cyclocross and gravel go here!

The main specialized website has the Diverge expert listed for 2018, the UK website does not. None of the shops that I have talked to are aware of why and I am curious.

I was after the expert to replace my 2017 expert and if it really is not going to come to the UK, I will swap my current 2x11 for a hybrid 1x11 di2 setup and new power meter. However, not keen on swapping things over if the model does eventually come out in the UK.

Any indications as to why this might be?

Thanks

Probably because the old Expert didn't sold so well so the sales people working for U.K. market decided not to take it in. Like my market, Central Europe doesn't got the Crux Expert, the Diverge Sport (carbon) or the S-Works Diverge as a complete bike, just frameset. Different markets, different thought, too many options with too few customers.
