Just because you don’t race, doesn’t mean you deserve less from your bicycle. And that’s why we made the Ventura Comp, Sport and Sport Femme. These are race-bred bicycles that offer up a lot of the same performance advantages of race-ready machines, but at a price that’s better matched for people who aren’t in the racing lifestyle.
Xenith-proven geometry gives you turn-at-a-whim cornering response with fore-aft weight distribution that optimizes ride and handling. It’s an over-the-road demeanor that’s complemented by the size-specific tubing and shock-damping qualities of the all-carbon fork on the Comp and monostay seatstays on both models, taking the hard edges off the usual road buzz for a smooth, all-day ride.
The revolutionary compact crank’s 34-tooth inner ring gives you climbing gears that rival a triple-ring crank’s, with less weight than a traditional double ring setup. It’s brilliant, and sets nicely with the sensibly lightweight wheelsets and reliable double-pivot brake calipers for secure stopping power.
Own the weekend ride. Or simply own the weekend. That’s what riding is all about.
