I can't quite believe the huge marketing push that Specialized have conducted on this bike. It's been insane.

Fun video, though.

Also how eye wateringly expensive they are. And that people are willing to spend that much $$$ on plastic bikes. Each to their own though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think they know they got a good bike in their hands and it will sell well.

The Williams brothers are awesome, its a good partnership.

They certainly seem to be enjoying the bike in the video, well, enjoying a video shoot they are being paid to participate in.

I guess this kind of marketing works on somebody.

Everything Spec makes is excellent in my experience. Their race geometry just works for me, and i bet this bike is a scorcher.

cool vid, it's good to see some buzz around cycling at a time that everything else is depressing and/or cancelled.

i'll never own one, but i'm looking forward to renting one in the mountains somewhere and putting it through it's paces.

yes, people love to hate on spesh but most things they put out are excellent. Great saddles, great bikes apparently, their tires are awesome as well.

I like hype around this bike and the hype around Legion/Williams bros/ect.
Sure we can look at it as, they are trying to sell something, but anything that makes me want to go outside and rip around on a road bike, I am good with.

If you got the cash buy one - Wont make you a lick faster though.......I've had Sworks in the past and all i got was a sore back! IMO

Specialized - marketing company that makes bikes.

So many cool things about the video. Love the line "I was born to do this" and the "shoulder to shoulder" homage to Anquetil and Poulidor. Not only do the Williams represent racial diversity, but it looks like they actually might be able to do some push-ups, which is also refreshing.

real question, last specialized bike you ever ridden?

[unterhausen]

I follow Cory Williams on instagram https://www.instagram.com/nationsnumber1beast/
I'm always amazed watching his power numbers during a sprint. He really communicates the joy of riding bikes.

Can do exactly what they are doing on any bike.

I think that describes most brands.

(Well, except the 'makes' part. While some companies actually make bikes, others are like Specialized who engineer and spec. bikes and have them made by someone else.)

[Dr Luxurious]

That ad makes me want to ride with those guys.
It doesn't make me want the bike.

It has to sell well, since it's combining two product lines into one essentially, with the Venge being put out to pasture.
