Hey guys
Just got a set of XTR mt900 140mm rotors for my Venge. Changing from 160mm front to 140mm. As expected rear rotor went in perfect with out a hitch. However I can't get the front rotor aligned for the life of me. When looking into the caliper on the front it seems that the pads are only grabbing the edge of the disc (ie.as the disc is smaller so only the edge of the pads are grabbing the disc). I suspect I might need to change my caliper mount to one that suits? Attached is a photo of the mount I currently have. Any advice would be appreciated.
If you are puttin a 140disc, you can't use a 160/180 adapt.

What is the steerer clamp height on the stem? I'm looking at a used model that's been slammed, but I want to make sure there's enough steerer to use a Bonti RSL VC-R bar.

I´m looking for a Venge Frameset size 56, preferably located in germany but it`s not a must... so if anybody is selling one please let me know
I could offer you my 56 Venge Pro Framset in Purple but it has a repaired carbon damage on the rear seat stay (repaired by the official Specilaized Shop I got it from...)

The purple colourway is beautiful but I´m looking for an undamaged one. Thank you!

Thanks! Looks like I'll need one with a 5mm spacer in place.
Anyone got a 58cm in carbon black?

Looks like I may have found my frameset! Should be finalizing the deal when seller returns from vacation next week. In the meantime, I'll start looking around for components and have a few questions:
1. How much weight do you save by going to a direct mount hanger like Sigeyi?
2. Does the FD hanger slot have enough adjustment range to use Di2 with a 48/32 crankset?
3. Does anyone have a spare headset cover made for standard stems that I could buy? Seller only has the one for the Venge stem that came with a complete bike.
4. Is there a manual anywhere that includes wiring instructions? I can't it anywhere. Bit confuse why there are only three ports if junction A is in the seatpost
5. Did Darimo ever end up making a post for this bike?

1)neglible but I did it anyway to try the direct mount solution
3)I may have a spare as I bought the spacer kit which was pretty cheap (if you are in the USA look here - it's twelve dollars and worth havinght extras especially for a discontinued bike:
https://www.amaincycling.com/specialize ... yarqazwdwz)
4)The Venge manual has all the cabling and di2 wiring. Surprisingly easy:

5)Not to my knowledge
Lots of bikes: currently riding Enve Melee, Krypton Pro, S Works Crux, S Works Epic Evo, SL7.

Cingolanibikeshop.com and nanobike.de also sell them and might send worldwide
