Tarmac SL8 Pro

Nada é mais rápido do que a Tarmac SL8, graças a uma combinação de aerodinâmica, leveza e qualidade de construção até agora considerada impossível. Após oito gerações e mais de duas décadas de desenvolvimento, é mais do que apenas a Tarmac mais rápida de sempre - é a bicicleta de competição mais rápida do mundo. As tuas pernas estão preparadas?

Só a aerodinâmica ou a leveza não ganham corridas: a velocidade é o que importa. Oferecer essa velocidade requer criar uma combinação perfeita de aerodinâmica, leveza, rigidez e conforto. Através das simulações de corrida recorrendo a dados do mundo real, a nossa equipa Ride Science sabe que a Tarmac SL8 é a bicicleta de competição mais rápida que alguma vez fizemos, nos percursos onde isso importa - 16,6 segundos mais rápida em 40 km, 128 segundos mais rápida na Milan San Remo, 20 segundos mais rápida na lendária subida do Tourmalet.

É a bicicleta de competição mais rápida do mundo — agora ainda mais rápida graças à performance revolucionária e aerodinâmica das novas rodas Roval Rapide CL III.

• AERO IN EVERYTHING: We’re putting aero where it matters - the leading edge - not just where it looks good. In the process we’ve created our most aerodynamic road bike ever. Yes, it’s more aero than the Venge. Clean air is optimized for maximum advantage with the Tarmac’s new nose cone - the Speed Sniffer. By moving the steer tube back - the tube that determines head tube width - the leading edge of the head tube can be much sharper, delivering a much lower drag shape. Utilizing new UCI rules, the Tarmac SL8 has the narrowest, most aero seat post we’ve ever made ensuring fast moving, dirty air around the legs can flow back more cleanly. Doesn’t victory smell sweet?

• MINIMUM WEIGHT, MAXIMUM AERO: Tarmac SL8 took learnings from Aethos to be easily built at the UCI minimum with a full aero set up. The team delivered a mind bending, scale tickling 685 gram frame - 15% lighter than the Tarmac SL7 and lighter than anything on else on the World Tour*. With the ability to make lightweight a top priority in the down tube, seat tube, and rear of the bike lessons from Aethos were applied. The frame’s shape carries load so efficiently that extra carbon stiffness layers become redundant. *Unless of course you count the time Kasper Asgreen raced our 585 gram Aethos frame during a Tour stage.

• GOES LIKE HELL, RIDES LIKE HEAVEN: With massive gains in stiffness-to-weight - an improvement of 33% over the SL7 - the Tarmac SL8 takes legendary handling, aggressive responsiveness and World Championship proven geometry to the next level. The bike is stiffer at the pedals, more precise at the bars, and combines it with a compliant ride in the saddle that sets a new benchmark for race bike comfort. Thanks to our Rider-First Engineering, every rider, regardless of size, gets the same unprecedented ride quality and handling. In the saddle the Tarmac SL8 delivers 6% more compliance, floating over rough road with a supple feel unique in the high strung world of race bikes. Tarmac’s proven geometry and 32mm tire clearance are identical to the SL7, ensuring easy adaptation and the versatility to run higher volume tires when needed.

• BEYOND GENDER: There can be more difference between two male cyclists than between a male and female. Gender alone doesn’t provide nearly enough data to specialize and that means creating male or female bikes is arbitrary and outdated. Every rider can get the next level advantage of Tarmac SL8. It’s time to go Beyond Gender.

• The Tarmac SL8 Pro delivers exceptional performance with a full Shimano Ultegra 8100 series Di2 groupset with power meter, Roval Rapide CL III tubeless-ready wheelset, and a Roval Rapide cockpit. You’re ready to race out of the box.

• 'Apple Find My' technology is now integrated in all SW & Pro 4iiii power meters. Riders can now enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing the exact location of their bikes.
