Hi, does anyone know where I can get a 125 or 135 mm S-Works Venge ViAS Stem? My LBS need at least 6 months lead time if I order through them.
Had tried bike24 but they do not have stock too.

Thanks in advance

What market are you in? I just checked stock in our US inventory and there are plenty available. I happen to be at HQ this week for a global summit. Maybe I can work with someone from your region to come up with a solution for you.

Thanks for you quick feedback! I'm glad to hear that there is stock somewhere.
I'm in Singapore. Is it possible to buy direct from Specialized USA?

I don't think there is a way to do that currently, but I'll see what kind of solution I can come up with for you tomorrow when I get to work.

idk If it will be super inspiring. I'll give you guys a brief update though. I upgraded to our new 2017 S-Works crankset. It was actually heavier by +25g over the previous version. I mounted my Quarq to that. That was my initial change I was speaking about.


Then, I had an opportunity to do something really crazy, and basically it resulted in me completely rebuilding this bike. Things are going to look a lot different when I get back home, and finish off the project. I've also made some new connections at HQ today, that might accelerate some of the custom projects I have planed for this bike.

If you are doing new things there can you please have them build my version of an aero drop bar with the ability to attach some extensions

James,

I sent you a PM, maybe you didn't get it being a new member. I need your email info. I made a contact in your region willing to help get you the stem you need. There apparently aren't any in your region, but there is a way we can get one from the US inventory to you. Send me an email @ bart.anatra@specialized.com

Hi Bart,

Got your PM, but it seems like I cannot reply to your PM. Had email you. Thanks!
