S-Works Venge with CeramicSpeed OSPW

The Specialized Venge has many fine details, but the highlight of this particular build is that gorgeous CeramicSpeed OSPW rear pulley system (nicely complementing the super-strong, super-smooth, ultra-durable CeramicSpeed bottom bracket and hub bearings that come as standard on the S-Works models).

Larger pulley wheels mean a more relaxed path for the chain, and combine with ceramic bearings to give lower friction (saving around 2.4 watts on a Shimano setup like the one we have here). Those big 17-tooth pulley wheels are a real eye-catcher too, particularly in Limited Edition Giro D'Italia pink.

Sadly you're not likely to find one of these in your nearest bike docking station, but if you'd like a Venge of your own we can help - not just with building your dream bike, but ensuring that it fits perfectly... give us a shout.
