Magma Black
Pearl White
Versatile design
Shaped to dance through the wind
Aero-shaped tubes avoid extremes so the Venta R stays agile in every situation, including strong crosswinds.
Rear triangle
A carefully shaped cut-out for the rear wheel and lowered seat stays improve aerodynamics and reduce drag.
Fork design
A straight-bladed fork gives precise, responsive handling.
Your power, your speed
An oversized BB and downtube meet a reinforced head-tube junction to resist torsional flex for efficient power transfer.
Lightweight construction
Light, durable and easy to handle
Frame and fork use Torayca T700 carbon with in-mould bearing housings and no extra inserts.
Shimano 105 12-speed
A wide gear range and refined ergonomics, so shifting becomes second nature.
Heart carbon seatpost
Integrates with the frame and clamp for comfort; 15mm setback as standard with a 0mm option available.
3B Clamp System Gen 2
A hidden, vulcanised seatpost clamp that adds an anti-vibration effect on bumpy roads.
The cockpit
Strato stem with Microtech's integrated-cable headset semi-integrates cables while keeping the stem cable-free and easy to adjust.

Sachet Instructions
1. Grab your empty old bottle of Muc-Off. (You may need a pair of adjustable pliers to remove the trigger from the bottle). Or purchase our Bottle for Life.
2. Fill up to the shoulders of the bottle with 1 litre of lukewarm water for faster formula activation!
3. Carefully cut one corner of the sachet open along the diagonal cut lines.
4. You can carefully pour the sachet straight into the top of the bottle. Or using the box, fold the inside of the lid together using the printed lines as a guide and use this as a funnel to pour the powder into your bottle. (Please see our video for full instructions on this.
5. Screw your spray trigger back onto the top of the bottle. Ensure it’s tight!
6. Shake the bottle vigorously for 30-60 seconds to activate the formula. If you notice any undissolved powder simply keep shakin’ it!
7. Go clean that filthy bike!
