I switched the tires out to the Spec Tubeless Turbo 26s. Running them at 70f 80r. I'm 160lbs. Very very smooth.ryanw wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 11:42 amYou've changed out the 64s for 50s? If you're referring to the Turbo Cottons on the wheels, they're not tubless, but you may have some standard Turbos on there, in which case, I stand corrected.sethjs wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 10:04 am300 miles into my new s-works Venge. Plenty comfortable... Even compared with my Bianchini Infinito. Strongly suspect the 26mm tubeless helps.
7.4kg in size 54 with CLX 50s. 2 bottle cages (Arundel). Spd-sl. 52/36. 11-30 cassette. GPS and Go-Pro Mount. Rear light mount. Basically ready to ride, just no actual saddle bag or bottles or GPS or lights.
Isn't te rubbing going to change when you don't torquing the axles, always, the same? I am torquing my axles around 10nm.sethjs wrote: ↑Thu Oct 11, 2018 3:51 amI get some level of rub when torquing hard. Sounds like it's more from the front than the rear.

In the specs of the venge they are saying 15nm.
Could be problem in skewer (trough axle)
Or fork flexing
Stiffer frame is more force is put on all components

To happy owners...where is possible to order frameset?
Relacing or tensioning the wheels isn't going to make a blind bit of difference to disc brake rub. That's the point Nefarious is making.

I had this on issue on my CX bike and decided to set up the calipers so they would float thus eliminating the problem. Offroad motos have had this setup for years and I cant understand why this is not used in the bicycle industry. Fixed calipers just dont work so well.

Yep, my bike is perma dirty and old looking because of the matte black paint job! Shame, because matte looks class if it's properly cleaned.
That said, take a look at ryan's S5 thread. His bike always looks new. Keep meaning to ask him what he uses to clean it! So it can be done, but it's definitely something more people should be aware of when buying their bikes.
I also noticed on the bike I rode that the logos are merely decals. The ones on the chains tat had scored from heel rub and the some of the small ones on the fork had come off.
Wow, that's really off-putting, I thought big S was supposed to be all about a high quality, especially for a $8000 bike...
Btw, I see that the Roval CL/CLX disc are only 21 spokes in the front, while most other disc wheels are 24, I wonder if it can contribute to brake rubbing.
