Why should you be forced to choose between aerodynamics and weight, between ride quality and speed? It’s simple, you shouldn’t. Enter the new Tarmac—climb on the lightest bike the UCI allows, then descend on the fastest. We’ve utilized our most advanced technologies, from our FreeFoil Shape Library to an all-new Rider-First Engineered™ frame, to deliver a race bike that is truly without compromise. The days of making sacrifices between “aero” and “lightweight” bikes are over—the all-new Tarmac is the fastest race bike, ever. One bike to rule them all.

To complement the world's fastest frame, only the best components will do—which is why you’ll find the likes of SRAM’s RED eTap AXS 12-speed group with power meter, and Roval’s new CLX Rapide wheels, with their exceptional stability and aerodynamic prowess. The S-Works Tarmac is a top-level, 6.8kg race machine, right out of the box.

Amazing bike.

I am a seasoned rider who races and does club rides. I ride between 150-200 miles a week on average. This bike is nothing short of incredible. Fast, and extremely comfortable. Buy one. You won’t regret it. When people I ride with ask me why I’m so fast, I tell them it’s the bike. They doubt I am being truthful, and I say, “No, really…. It’s the bike. But one and you’ll see.”

Full disclosure: I only ride S-Works bikes, or top of line Specialized, e.g. the P.3 dirt jumper. Full disclosure: I only run Red eTap AXS. I built-up a 1X eTap version of the SL7... the meanest and best looking bike I've ever owned. I ride S-Works FS and hardtail MTB machines... Diverge gravel monsters... fatbikes... DJs... whatever... the Tarmac SL7 1X is the most responsive extension of my body I've ever experienced. I am 56 years old... I taught myself to ride and have ridden most of those years. Note: I descend on the S-Works Diverge as if on rails... faster than the SL7 even. But, when it comes to out-of-saddle André Greipel-like sprinting, the SL7 connection to Tarmac owns the day.
