Nothing is faster than the Tarmac SL8 thanks to a combination of aerodynamics, lightweight, and ride quality previously thought impossible. After eight generations and over two decades of development, it’s more than the fastest Tarmac ever - it’s the world’s fastest race bike. Your legs up for it?Aerodynamics or lightweight alone don’t win races - speed is what matters. Delivering that speed requires creating an uncompromising combination of aerodynamics, lightweight, stiffness, and compliance. Through race simulations using real world data our Ride Science team knows the Tarmac SL8 is the fastest race bike ever made on the routes that matter - 16.6 seconds faster over 40km, 128 seconds faster over Milan San Remo, 20 seconds faster over the legendary Tourmalet climb.

Fast and Stiff!

This bike has been nothing short of fantastic. It handles exactly like your intend. I swapped the 38mm rims with some deeper carbon rims and it absolutely flys while being light enough for any climbing. The bottom bracket stiffness is great for sprinting. I have PRed in most routes I usually do unintentionally. Highly recommended.

Wow!

I'm quite surprised by the ride and handling of this bike. I've been riding an Aethos for just over two years and love the bike. It is as comfortable as the Aethos but it does track faster, corners faster, accelerates faster and there is more of a 'road surface feel' compared to the Aethos. I ride approx. 10k miles per year and participate in approx. ten or so races per year as well and as a lead group rider, not pack fodder lol. I've never had a complaint about the way the Aethos handles in a race but I do notice the difference between the two just in training, race season not yet started. The SL8 is a superb bike whether on a moderate paced ride or full gas performance.

Absolutely love this bike. Have used it for Saturday morning rides, my Wahoo trainer, and a full Ironman. Very fast and versatile!
