S-Works Venge 2019
Moderator: robbosmans
They add more spokes to the disc wheels due to the increased forces around the hub from braking, so it's a bit surprising to see the varying amount of spokes from the different manufacturers. Light-bicycles even offer 28 spokes afaik.
Anyway, gonna try out the CL50's to see how it works out. Ordered some blingy decals from Speedydecal.com today

I need to know this too. A 56 size with 80cm saddle height how much is ther drop?Tarmacian wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2019 7:57 pmI’m 184cm and was advised a 58 in my Specialized Concept Store. Problem is the longer reach. I ride a 56 SL5 with 3 spacers and 10cm stem. My drop is 115mm and saddle height 795mm.anykarthik wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 9:04 pm56cm sounds right for a 183cm height. But that said, body proportions matter. For example, I'm 177cm and ride a 54cm venge with stock 100mm stem. I have long legs (88cm inseam) and a short torso. So a 56cm would be too reach-y for me. The 54cm with spacers works well (saddle drop is 11cm).
Because lack of flexibility it would be nice to sit a bit more upright. Maybe a 56 with al the spacers in place would be an option. Anyone knows the total stack height of a 56 with al the spacers under the stem?

Thanks. Guess mine would be hideous for a while. Don't want to shoot myself in the foot by lopping off too much of the steerer tube before I dialed in my fit.anykarthik wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 4:40 pmNope. Not if you want the clip-on top cap to stay on. It would look hideous without that cap

There is a special clip-on top cap that allows spacers above included in frameset. Not as good looking, but way better than no cap at all while adjusting fit.

Yes it does come with both covers. I've heard the one that completely covers the the top cap has a tendency to fall off - you end up hitting it with your knee or some such.
