The All-New Venge

We aren't satisfied with second fastest. Hell, why do you think we have our own Win Tunnel and the motto, "Aero is Everything?" We live and breathe aero, because we know that aerodynamic optimization is the best thing we can do to make you faster. And this philosophy has never been truer than with the new Venge. Being eight seconds faster than the ViAS, it’s not only the most aerodynamic bike on the road, but it’s also lost 460 grams. This is the new shape of speed.

Surprisingly, our quest for the perfect tube shapes didn’t start in the Win Tunnel. It started with a new piece of technology, the FreeFoil Shape Library. Our engineers wrote an optimization algorithm and utilized a supercomputer (yes, we used an actual supercomputer) to help create new airfoil shapes with different weights, surface areas, and structural targets. Armed with this library of shapes, all with different aspect ratios, we could plug them into the different parts of the bike and test a variety of configurations to determine the fastest setup in the Win Tunnel.

Compared to the fastest aero road bike to date (the Venge ViAS), and many others in the space that we won't name here, the new Venge is eight seconds faster over 40km at zero degrees of yaw. It's also faster out on the road in all wind conditions—not just in the tunnel.

And while it's cool that the new Venge is more aero, there are other factors to fast. Striking the perfect combination of weight and aerodynamics plays a crucial role in a bike’s overall performance. A bike that’s strictly aero will feel great on the flats, but it'll suffer on the climbs and in quick accelerations. A bike that’s strictly lightweight, however, will suffer on everything but the steepest climbs. So, not only did we make the Venge more aero than the ViAS, but we also took 460 grams out of the module weight. This means we saved 240g in the frame, 25g in the fork, 107g in the cockpit, 25g in the seatpost, and 63g in small parts. So no matter the course, the Venge will prove to be the fastest option when you need to go up, down, and all around.

Much of this weight savings comes from our Rider-First Engineered™ tubes. We implemented much of the discovery from the new Tarmac's development, like different layup schedules and materials, and this culminated in a Venge that’s not only lighter, but one that also has a higher stiffness-to-weight ratio and 40% more compliance than the ViAS—no matter the frame size. And while you can't always see these changes, all it takes is one ride to feel the quick accelerations and the bump-eating compliance.

Of course, we didn't stop there. The geometry got an update, and now, it's based on over 40,000 Retül data points, as well as professional rider input. This enabled us to implement a Performance Road Geometry that perfectly combines a responsive front-end with a short wheelbase, and this delivers instantaneous response and optimal power transfer.

Last, but certainly not least, the Venge houses some exciting new features. The new cockpit, developed in partnership with our World Tour teams, features a stem with a higher stiffness than anything we’ve ever tested, new bars that are faster, lighter, stiffer, and feature a textured pattern on the tops for extra grip and control. Next up is tire clearance—it has no problem clearing 32mm-wide tires. And, finally, we’ve put our Shimano A-Junction in the seatpost, making it easy to charge, check battery levels, and for team mechanics to make adjustments.

The S-Works Venge comes with the best components spec around, with Shimano Dura-Ace Di2, hydraulic disc brakes, Roval CLX 64 Disc wheels dressed with 700x26mm Turbo Cotton Tires, and our S-Works Power Cranks that are the lightest & most accurate in the world.

  • The Rider-First Engineered™, FACT 11r frame not only makes the Venge the most aerodynamic road bike we’ve ever created, but it's also lightweight and stiff in all the right places. 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. Ultimately, this resulted in the fastest road bike we’ve ever made.

  • Shimano's Dura-Ace Di2 group offers exceptionally crisp shifts, smooth braking modulation, and it keeps the overall weight of the Venge at an absolute minimum.

  • The Roval CLX 64 disc wheels aren't only the fastest wheels we've tested, but they perform extremely well in crosswinds, so they're perfect for all conditions.

BEST. BIKE. EVER.

without a doubt, the best road bike i've ever ridden. a true two-wheeled machine that is responsive on the climbs, confident on descents, and easily keeps pace on the flats, the S-Works Venge is a dream build.

Best bike I've ever ridden

I've had many different high end bikes and recently tested four of the top 2019 areo bikes. The new Venge is the one I purchased in the end, it's so fast, responsive, light, quiet, I love the way it climbs and super fast on the decent. Moreover, it's so comfortable on the rougher roads, surprising comfortable for an areo bike. Specialized did a magnificent job on it's new Venge.

Fast and Confortable

This is a nice lookjng and fast bike. Geometry is designed for aero and agressive positions but it is also very confortable. Also feels good when climbing. Design is perfect! If I have to pick one thing as a room for improvement, I would say with that premium price, I expected the bike to come with a bluetooth unit for the di2 system.

그동안의 이미지를 탈피하고 새롭게 태어난 녀석이기에...

스페셜~과 벤지는 한가지 불만족스러운 이미지가 있습니다. 요즘시대 로드바이크의 트렌드마크라고 해도 과언이 아니었던, 가벼움... 네.. 스페셜~과 벤지는 그동안 경량과는 거리가먼 브랜드였기에 이녀석이 더 관심 이 간다는거죠.

A smart, thought out upgrade to the fastest aero bike aroun

Specialized really got their ducks in a row with this one. Weight, comfort, stiffness, function and practically were improved, all while keeping the bike every bit as fast as the last version. I think these metrics are what really matters long term to a majority of consumers and it shows that Specialized really set out to make the new Venge the ultimate race bike. Not only is the bike better in every functional way, Specialized also managed to keep it looking straight sexy; especially compared to some new aero bikes. Will you need to sell everything you own to afford one? Hell yeah. Will it be the best bike you've ever owned? Pfff, without a doubt.
