Here’s current offerings.
Sorry to be so outspoken.......but this is completely ridiculous. I have a brand new Venge hang on the wall waiting for a 130mm stem, then SPZ come up and say that I shall wait until November to have the advertised tide, adjustable and aero cockpit. To get worse, my LBS told me that I could install a standard stem instead. He managed to make me even more anger.

This is a 12500usd bike, I do not want a jerry-rigged solution. I will end up selling this bike and stick with my current bike for more time.
I feel you. This is why I bought a Canyon earlier this year. They had what I wanted in stock. So annoying that Specialized takes forever to release bikes that have been ridden by the pros for months, then after release, the bikes arent available for many more months. Or if the bikes are available, you can't get parts for them! Not sure what their deal is, but their accessory/component part inventories have always been completely terrible.

That is a good weight for an aero bar. Do you have the whole bike or were you able to order this separately-I have not seen the bar individually on the US website and my LBS could not find it with the part # provided earlier in this thread.

Not sure whether to get this for my Tarmac SL6 or hold out for the new Pro Vibe Aero Lite bar that is supposed to be 209g, due in October (but Shimano tends to miss their initial availability dates by a lot).

Hi,

does anybody may provide the height of the upper headset transition when using the new Venge Stem?

sun: Except I have to get a Pro (in purple) it's the same frame as the S-Works. Just with Ultegra Di2 and CL50 wheels.
When will it be available? Cost?
No idea on both

Ordered the bar separately for my SL6. Avaiable in one week in my specialized shop (in France).

FWIW I love my Pro Vibe Aero cockpit. Stiff, light and sexy.

BikeRadar says that Venge Pro frameset = Venge SWorks frameset based on the fact that the material is the same Fact Carbon 11r...

Seems cyclestore.co.uk have jumped the gun on the pro version of the specialized venge 2019.
Here it is with full specs and price :)

Here’s to hoping that there is a Venge Expert for even less cause that wasn’t what I was expecting for Pro price.

From what I know at the moment there will be no expert model as the frame is only compatible with electronic drive chains, they wouldn’t be able to fit an Expert level group to it which would usually be mechanical Ultegra.

That is about what I expected when I saw the jump in price of the Sworks version compared to the previous model and also whey I decided on just doing a new tarmac frame. A full 8000 bike was not in the budget for this year or possibly even the next.
