Specialized S-Works Venge

The S-Works Venge is a regular feature in our Build Gallery, this latest incarnation of Specialized's aero road machine is a superb all-round performer.

This particular build highlights some of the details which make it such a popular choice, and demonstrates some subtle customisation to take an essentially standard build to the next level.

Every bike we sell is precisely specced and adjusted to ensure the perfect fit, but we don't just stop there - every last detail can be customised to build your ultimate dream bike.

Here we have a KMC Titanium Nitride coated chain, which has the very practical function of reducing friction and extending chain life as well as looking extremely bling. Specialized's own Rib Cage II bottle cages weigh in at less than 20g each in carbon S-Works form, and work so well that they're often seen fitted to other brand's frames too. Bright blue bar tape gives a lift to the front end.
