Specialized S-Works Venge VIAS Di2 Road Bike 2016

Specialized S-Works Venge VIAS Di2 Road Bike 2016

Specialized have developed their new Specialized S-Works Venge VIAS Di2 Road Bike 2016 with one simple yet ambitious objective; to be the fastest bike in the world. Honed over thousands of hours of testing in the aptly named Win Tunnel, the Venge VIAS combines a plethora of world-class features and the cutting-edge Rider-First Engineered™ frame.

Seeking to provide a revolution in aerodynamic bicycle technology, the FACT 11r Rider-First Engineered™ frame is incredibly stiff and unbelievably aerodynamic no matter what direction the wind is blowing.

Continuing the theme of aerodynamic superiority, the Aerofly cockpit has an all in one design which dramatically reduces drag while at the same time increasing stiffness so you can really pull on the handlebars to get the most power in your sprints.

Blink and you'll miss them; the zero-drag proprietary brakes have been positioned in a manner to reduce drag to the absolute minimum while also enhancing braking over the least flexible part of the wheel.

Speaking of wheels it doesn't get much better than the Roval CLX 64 tubless ready full carbon wheelset. Dripping with carbon aerodynamic superiority, these ultra-lightweight wheels cut through the air with ease and strategically reduce the drag profile of the entire bike.

Shimano's Di2 groupset provides seamless pro-level electronic shifting right out of the box so you can always put the maximum power down onto the road.

Lasting comfort is built in with the aero Venge FACT carbon seatpost and Specialized Power Saddle. The choice of the likes of Stybar and Terpstra, the Power saddle's ultra-lightweight carbon fibre rail and base construction coupled with the Body Geometry fit, aggressive front edge positioning and oversized cut out means you can ride in comfort while also maximising your pedal stroke for power.

Available in the incredibly sleek black colour scheme with white decals, this is a bike to marvel at and one that is sure to turn the heads of everyone you pass including any pro riders!

Features:

• The FACT 11r carbon frame features fully internal cable routing, and it is Rider-First Engineered™ in order to provide consistent performance across the entire size range.

• FACT carbon fork is designed to drastically reduce aerodynamic drag, while still providing incredible stiffness and steering response for all out efforts and twisting descents.

• Roval CLX 64 wheelset provides the ultimate in speed and performance. Optimised for both head and crosswinds, the CLX 64 wheelset is tubeless-ready and features a 21mm internal rim width for enhanced traction, minimal rolling resistance, and improved aerodynamics.

• The S-Works crankset features Specialized's highest quality carbon construction for the best in lightweight power transfer, while also featuring a fully integrated ANT+ compatible Quarq power meter.

• Fully integrated proprietary brakes are strategically located where wheel flex is minimal. This reduces brake rub, as well as laying claim to a near-zero drag coefficient for maximum aerodynamic efficiency.
