The 11sp 105 that comes on the Venge will go onto my steel training bike, so it will also serve as a way to convert both bikes to 11. Not sure what I'm going to do with the wheels that come on the venge, maybe sell them or just have them as spares. It is going to ride the ptap/Hed Belgium wheels that I have for training, and carbon tubulars for racing.

My trusty old caad9 will live at my parent's as a spare/backup bike.
