A while back we got a close up look at the Specialized Venge S-Works frameset before our Specialized PR guy even knew they were shipping (granted, that’s not his job), and now we’ve got what’s claiming to be the first McLaren version to ship to the States.
Word is this is the only one in the U.S. and unless you’ve already plunked down the $18,000, it’s not going to you. Seriously.
Our spy couldn’t get a shot of it on the scale but says it weighed in at exactly 14.0 pounds for the size 56 without pedals.
The McLaren version comes with eeCycles eeBrakes and Zipp cork Tangente Pro brake pads (good catch, Rob!).
Thanks to Robert for the tip!
