S-Works Venge 2019

Does anybody know whether the new Aerofly II bars can hold any kind of Roval and/or third-party TT clip-ons? Or if Specialized is working on anything along those lines?

I think they already have one out, if not, they will in the near future, at least that is what they said earlier on.

Thanks! I've anyway just discovered that the frameset isn't compatible with mechanical groupsets, so there goes my financial ability to build one.

The Vias clip-ons will work with a new clamp underneath the stem I heard from Specialized yesterday.

My build is now almost ready. Somehow did not get the brakes to work and the second gear (12 teeth) a far away from smooth although all other gears are shinfting fine.
I will now let my LBS take a look as they also are taking care of cutting the steerer tube for me

Hope my spec list and weights are useful to someone. Let me know if i should share some more info.

The bike as shown on the photo comes in at 7.85 kg

you list is a bit confusing as some "included in framset" items have weight figures and some don't. the list add up 7,734g...

"included in" means that this was not purchased separately, if i stated a weight this is the actual weight the component has.
The sum is less than the total weight because of grease and maybe because of weighing with 2 different scales.
i weighted each part with my kitchen scales and the whole bike with my park tool scales.

Wow, it seems that this paint is pretty heavy.. (but really nice)

Going off claimed weights of the Venge Pro frame, Sagan paint adds 380 grams. Seems like a lot (although very good looking).

Just to clarify: the frame weight as i measured it includes the BB and headset baerings

RedOne, I think your weight itemization is awesome. Thank you!

I compared a S-Works Venge in size 56 in black standard colour with the Sagan colour. 7,22kg for the black, 7,48kg for Sagan. both completely stock including the garmin mount. So 260g But a really awesome colour

What do we think about the Battleship Grey color? My LBS has a frameset that I could build up if I want it. I'm a bit on the fence but have not seen it in person as I just got the call. Yea or Nay?

I like it , if for no other reason than it is different from the black we are all familiar with. I think Specialized sponsored triathlete Flora Duffy is on that color: https://www.instagram.com/p/BmwbO5jH8Cx ... hare_sheet

I looooove the grey. Best bike color spesh has made in a while.

Do these include the pedals and water bottle cages? I thought the new Venge was 7.1kg ready to ride? Whilst I like it (a lot), it is still heavy then...?

Check out Instagram. Several photos of the grey built up. Looks really good IMO.
