    Hi! To those that have experience with both Silvio and Vendetta, how much slower is the Silvio when climbing normal hills, rollers, etc? I ride a Vendetta now with a compact double and 11-36 rear cassette. But I'm finding that there are still some really big long (small mountain-like)...

    Vendetta Questions

    Hi! I'm pretty interested in a Vendetta, but I've never ridden one. How does it compare in riding ease to a Silvio? Just from imagining, I would think the Vendetta might be a little easier. Seems like it might have less torque steer because of the alignment of the boom and axis of...
