Summary

The Specialized Venge is celebrated for its exceptional speed and aerodynamic efficiency, making it a standout in the aero road bike category. Reviewers highlight its effortless acceleration, improved aerodynamics, and smooth ride quality, though some note a slight compromise in comfort compared to non-aero frames. Its versatility shines in fast group rides, crit racing, and even as a TT or triathlon bike with minor adjustments. However, its value and comfort over long distances are points of contention among critics.

Pros
  • Effortless speed and acceleration

  • Superior aerodynamic efficiency

  • Versatile for various racing disciplines

  • Smooth ride quality despite aero focus

  • Excellent handling and stiffness

Cons
  • Slight weight penalty compared to non-aero frames

  • Comfort may be compromised on long rides

  • Value questioned compared to competitors

Specialized Venge Elite

May 2016 · Oliver Bridgewood

The Specialized Venge Elite is a great bike but lacks for a 105 chainset and 25mm tyres

Highs
  • Great handling through the corners

  • Comfortable for an aero bike

  • Aero handle bar

Lows
  • Don't get a complete groupset

  • Saddle slipped on seat post

  • Comes with 23mm tyres - would prefer 25mm
