if it was a spesh you probably have no hope, they change the design on everything seemingly several times a year. When I worked in a shop we had a customer with an enduro FSR (just before they changed massively in ~2005) that had failed, and finding a replacement in same colour/size/model year took us about 3months and probably 30+ man hours minimum on the phone/chasing/distributor hell. One turned up from a welsh bike shop (complete bike, pulled back by spesh into stock, then re-issued to us as a whole bike, then we swapped parts over on our own time), total ball ache but customer was well pleased (he'd had a decent loaner bike, think it was a comencal meta, in mean time too).
I can tell you right now evans won't bother beyond 10minutes to find you what you want.
