ABOUT THE VENTUM TEMPUS RIVAL AXS

Tip to tail, the surface of the Tempus has been engineered with airflow in mind. Beginning at the head tube, functional airfoils taper backward the full length of the frame, working together to strategically smooth and direct air as it passes over rider and bike. Combined with its uniquely wide-set fork and seat stays that channel clean air around some of the more problematically turbulent areas, the entire bike is engineered with one goal in mind: Make clean air.

Thousands of hours of engineering, rigorous CFD analysis, and iterative wind tunnel testing fueled the design of the Tempus, and that design has been proven in the real world. Benchmarked against its predecessor, the Ventum One Disc, the Tempus tests up to 15 watts faster in certain conditions and configurations.

Though the aerodynamic arms race among bike companies is what grabs the most attention, a fast bike is a balance between aerodynamics, handling, and functional design. Races are won on real roads; with hills, curves, and a whole host of other terrain to navigate. We didn’t forget this.

Fast on paper must be fast in the real world. Our engineering team leaned on collective decades of experience to carefully build a bike that is lighter, simpler, and livelier than its predecessor. We gave the Tempus an aggressively steep seat tube angle to place the rider more forward and on top of the pedals and stiffened the front end to give the bike scalpel-like precision in corners. Most notably, though, the Tempus is very light. Our careful attention to carbon layup and mission of simplicity stripped the fat from the frame.

Light, efficient, and simple, we wanted to push the envelope of aerodynamic efficiency without sacrificing real-world ride quality. Incredibly aero, but also snappy in corners and stable in crosswinds, the Tempus is made to inspire confidence anywhere from the windswept lava fields of Kona to the mountains of Nice.

WHAT YOU GET

• SRAM Rival AXS 12-speed electronic drivetrain
• Profile Design Wing Ultimate S carbon base bar
• Profile Design 52 A aerobar extensions
• An ultralight full carbon fiber frame with intuitive internal cable routing
• Tire clearance to 700x30c

VENTUM CUSTOMER SUPPORT + RIDE READY SHIPPING

Each Ventum bike begins life at our facility in Heber City, Utah, at the doorstep of some of the best riding this side of… anywhere.

No matter the build, any bike we send out into the world is first built, checked, and thoroughly tuned by a professional mechanic. With a bill of good health, it’s then repackaged into a specially-made ride-ready box designed to transport the bike to the rider with as little disassembly as possible.

VENTUM TEMPUS RIVAL AXS FEATURES

WIDE IS THE NEW NARROW

Jutting far outboard of the frame, the Tempus' wide-set fork and equally wide seat stays are designed for one purpose: To create clean air.

The wide fork channels clean air past the front wheel and onto the rider's legs, avoiding turbulence caused by the wheel and creating a shrouding effect over one of the most aerodynamically problematic body parts.

Just behind the legs, airfoils on the wide seat stays not only direct air from the back of the legs over and around the wheel, but also help shroud the rear wheel at higher yaw angles.

AN ULTRA-ADJUSTABLE FRONT END

We partnered with Profile Design to engineer the Tempus in tandem with their all-new Wing Ultimate S base bar.

Uncomplicated, incredibly aero, and extensively adjustable, the Profile Design cockpit systems gives riders and bike fitters the power to precisely dial in the front end position.

Equipped with the 52 ASC aerobar extension, riders also have the option to upgrade their cockpit to the semi-custom ASC Pro extensions.

FAST SHOULD FEEL FAST

Aerodynamic optimization can only take you so far. A fast bike is a balance between aerodynamics, handling, and functional design.

An aggressively steep seat tube angle and strategic stiffening of the front end means the Tempus feels as fast as it looks on paper. It's also wickedly light, which helps make the bike feel more lively and responsive.

Feedback from our pros says we nailed it: They've raved about the Tempus' nimble yet stable handling.

VENTUM TEMPUS SIZING GUIDE | CHOOSING YOUR FRAME SIZE

Sizing a TT and Triathlon bike can be tricky, so we always recommend working with a bike fitter for those who can. If you haven't worked with a fitter, use your height and inseam (measured in inches) and reference the below chart to choose the correct Tempus frame size.

If you know your required pad stack and reach coordinates, that information can be found in charts further down this page.

For questions or help, please reach out to the Ventum Customer Service team.

CONTACT SUPPORT

"Ironman Sweden was my first race on my new bike from Ventum, a Shimano Dura Ace 12-speed. The aero comfort is easy to adjust to the perfect fit and with the fantastic disc brakes it is easy to keep a good rhythm through the corners. With the Ventum One, I achieved my fastest bike split at Ironman Sweden."

- Jesper Svensson

“There is nothing I would rather use to sail the gravel seas of eastern Nebraska than my GS1 (except for maybe a tandem). Its smooth comfort allowed me to carry my speed and momentum over the tops of every one of the endless rollers on the Gravel Worlds course. I was able to open gaps through the loose corners all day long, thanks to the bike’s stability and nimble handling, and there’s just no arguing with a 22 mph average speed over 150 miles, with 11,000 feet of elevation gain, on a course that’s 98% gravel, on my way to 2nd place out of a very talented pro field."

- John Borstelmann

"The GS1 is everything I want in a gravel bike. The combination of smooth cruising on pavement and steady rolling over rowdy terrain makes it the most dynamic bike. From champagne gravel to chunky single track, my GS1 has performed beautifully through it all. Let’s not forget that it has ample tire clearance and is aesthetically stunning!"

- Lindsey Stevenson
