    Great looking bike. It looks like it wants to race.

    It's good looking cause of all the sexy parts on it. Still rather a nimble tarmac sl4

    I have got one of those as well :lol:

    Might aswell post your Tarmac pictures
  • Wonder what the Zipps would look like with green lettering ?

    I was most disappointed with the last set of photos - I was hoping for another type of seating that the bike was to be propped against :lol:
    All the gear, but no idea...

    That Tarmac looks awesome as well - a pure climbing machine! I wouldn't be able to choose between that and the Venge :D

    That Cavendish Venge is awesome. This months Cycle Sport magazine has a review of it. Only 310 of them made and only 31 of them are in the UK! What number is yours?

    Never been much of a Specialized fan, but that is a stunner. Fantastic paint job.
  • Got 140 miles on this now and I love it. Is very fast on the flat and handles as well as my SL4.

    Well the Venge is packed up in the garage attic for winter but the bits are still arriving. Ordered a S-Works chainset and spider. I just need to choose a set of rings if anyone has any advice? I am tempted to buy a Quarq power meter as well just for the crack and to annoy folk in my club :shock:

    Really...?

    You don't deserve that bike Rick, If I owned it, it would be tucked up beside me in bed. 8)

    Well after a long time trying to actually find some where that had 2014 S-Works cranks in stock I now have some of them and a S-Works Carbon spider waiting for me to collect in New York next week. Saved a huge amount on them (came in under half the UK price. Just need another pair now for the SL-4!). In the meantime after reading the glowing reviews off NapoleonD and others on the Praxis rings I decided they were the only ones to go for so I picked these up:

    Cannot wait to get it down from the loft, build it back up and take it for a ride again.
