Just wanted to say you're not out of the woods with a Venge. I work in a Specialized dealer, and three of the Venge's we've sold since they were released, have cracked somewhere between the rear axle and the RIGHT seat stay union with the seat tube. IMHO it's not a question of if, it's when. None of them are even a year old yet. Only one of them was crashed.
edited to change left to right. They all seem to be cracking on the drive side seat stay...
