Venon EVO-RS 105 Di2 Aero

On paved roads, the rating is mostly about fast cruising and how the setup supports higher speeds. Against more utility-focused bikes, this build is shaped by a light setup, an aero-leaning setup that reduces drag at higher speeds, all-round road tires that balance speed and comfort, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding. On paper, the mass profile helps when you accelerate or climb at tempo.

If your rides include hills, it rates 7.7/10 for climbing. Within Road bikes, it sits above average. It has a middle-of-the-road low gear for climbing. The easiest gear works out to about 27.0 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~58% for low-gear climbing. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. At about 8.1 kg, it’s in a normal range, so gearing matters more than weight swings here. Good for keeping cadence steady on climbs without overcooking it. Specs can vary by size and build, and some manufacturer details aren’t always published, so treat this as a strong guide rather than a guarantee.

On the endurance side of things, with more integrated details, sitting at 6.8/10 for aero, it keeps decent wind efficiency without becoming a specialist so it feels ‘quick enough’ without being a pure aero build. Put simply, it’s a balanced middle ground: some streamlining, but not an extreme aero setup. Rims around 44mm are more of an all-round choice than a pure aero choice. That wheel depth is more all-round than purely aero-focused. Tyres around 28mm fit a faster road setup and usually keep drag in check. A tidier cockpit and cable routing can help a little once you’re riding quickly. Different brands share different amounts of detail, so this uses the most consistent cues that are available. That typically means solid everyday speed without forcing an aggressive position or race-only parts.

Balanced fit - a middle ground between comfort and speed. This is mainly because the cockpit sits 88 mm below the saddle (a large drop), and the cockpit stretches you forward by ~571 mm (long). You'll likely be near 36 degrees of lean. Endurance bikes often keep the front end a bit higher for longer rides.

Net result: Adjustable. What affects adjustability on this bike: Separate bar and stem components keep fit changes practical, and Because cables are routed internally, adjustments may take more work. In practice, it is about how easy fit changes are with normal parts and service work.

This scores 4.1/10 for comfort, so it feels more responsive than cushy out on the road. That’s why it’s labeled Firm. It’s running about 28 mm tires on 700c wheels, and narrow tires usually mean higher pressure, so more buzz comes through on chipseal and broken pavement. The posture is neutral (posture 6/10, torso ~36°), which keeps things neutral and easy to live with.

This is the kind of deal people usually notice quickly. The value score is 1–10. Higher means better value for money; lower means the price is high for what you get. Uses MSRP as a baseline; real-world prices can be lower (discounts can change the value). Based on the spec estimate, it comes in about 20% under the typical level for similar builds. In its peer group, it tends to be better-priced than many, beating about 85% of listings. To anchor it: price €4.743 versus an estimated €5.956 for a similar build. Overall, it looks like a great-value pick in its category.

This bike is best when your rides stay on clean tarmac. The tire size is around 28 mm, which is typical for fast road setups. Even though it’s tagged Endurance, the spec pushes it toward Road Only.
