Summary

The Specialized Venge is celebrated for its aggressive aerodynamic profile and significant improvements over its predecessor, including enhanced aerodynamics, comfort, and weight. It stands out as a disc-equipped bike that has achieved professional racing success, offering a blend of speed and efficiency. While it excels in performance and handling, its high price and lack of rim-brake options may deter some.

Pros
  • Improved aerodynamics, comfort and weight from the previous model

  • Aggressive and uncompromising aerodynamic profile

  • First disc equipped bike to be ridden to victory at the Vuelta a San Juan

  • Faster in the wind than the previous ViAS

  • Hydraulic/Di2-only affair for modern performance

Cons
  • High price point

  • No rim-brake or mechanical-shift option

  • Comfort not on par with endurance bikes

Key Quotes
The Tarmac is an all-rounder with improved aerodynamics, comfort and weight from the previous model.
