Description
The Specialized Venge Pro is an S-Works in disguise. Like the S-Works Venge, the Pro’s frame is built from Specialized’s FACT 11r carbon and the brand has confirmed that under the skin, they are one and the same. Every tube shape, trailing edge, and design cue was influenced by hours of testing in our Win Tunnel, CFD, 3D-printed prototypes, and real-world rider feedback. With a deep purple colour scheme that shimmers in the light - it's bound to impress anyone at the café and truly turn heads!
It’s a blast. It is quick – so very quick. Most aero bikes – most bikes equipped with deep-section wheels, in fact – will carry speed effectively once you get above 30kph; however, the Venge feels almost effortless to pedal at higher speeds. Tuck into a fellow rider’s slipstream in a fast-moving bunch and you’ll be soft-pedalling almost straight away, such is the aerodynamic efficiency of the setup.
From the first few pedal strokes, it’s clear that this is a super-responsive, nimble bike. The lighter, stiffer and surprisingly comfortable cockpit certainly contributes to this, giving the front end a flickable, lively feel. The bottom bracket is just as stiff, seemingly transferring every last watt to the drivetrain. This thing veritably leaps forward when you push down on the pedals – perfect for those ‘last-gasp’ sprint efforts.
Descending is a joy. The sharpness of its handling means that the bike is incredibly surefooted when plummeting at speed, hooking into corners with confidence and ease.
The Pro spec is built with a Shimano Ultegra Di2 groupset, which includes the cranks. The performance of the R8070 Ultegra Di2 groupset is barely distinguishable from the Dura-Ace R9170 series.
The wheels are Roval CLX64 carbon tubeless ready wheels. They complement the aero frame and maximise its benefits at speed.
Condition
Bike is in fantastic condition with very few marks. The gear shifts are nice and crisp whilst the brakes are sharp. Smooth bearings all round including the bottom bracket, headset, hub and freehub bearings. Absolutely no cracks whatsoever.
