I've heard that the Venge can be pretty unforgiving on bad roads but I'd like to think that you can get around that these days with wider profile wheels/tyres and somewhat lower pressure. Venge frames have dropped in price considerably for some reason lately.

Anyone with a Venge that can give some input? Is it really that harsh?

no, ist not that harsh, i ride my venge with 25 mm vittoria evo cx tubulars with latex tubes inside on a pressure of 9/10 bars,
and i use a saddle with carbon rails and a carbon handlebar
with this setup its quite comfortable :)

no real weight changes in the sum, the bass stem ist unfortunately very heavy (200g) but the -11° geometry and the design is perfect to the venge in my opinion
the s-works cranks are very light instead so at he end the bike is between 6,58 and 6,81 again
the paint is only 60g +

6,58 kg with:
exustar ti-pedals, 176 g
zipp fc 404, 2012: 1278 g
recon aluminium cassette 11-25: 109 g
