S-Works Turbo RapidAir

Made Like No Other, to Ride Like No Other

Your Ride Depends on This

Tyres matter at Specialized. In 1976, Mike Sinyard’s very first product was a tyre, the Specialized Touring tyre. Ever since then, design, innovation, and collaboration with the day’s fastest riders have made our tyres the very best in the world. And it’s all led to this moment, to this tire. Our new Turbo RapidAir Tubeless Tyre is already changing the world, turning the page on the century-long chapter of tubulars in professional racing. Long live RapidAir.

OUR GOAL WAS NOT TO DEVELOP A TUBELESS TYRE, BUT A TYRE THAT IS FASTER, MORE COMFORTABLE, BETTER HANDLING, AND SELF-SEALING.
—Wolf vorm Walde, Director of Tyres and Tubes at Specialized
Fastest on the Road

After over 40 years, we know how to make a fast tyre. And we harnessed this experience to make a tyre that not only rolls faster than a tubular, but one that also handles corners with more grip and the smooth compliance that our professional riders demand.

From now on, if the team allows me, I’ll race with them all the time.
—Fabio Jakobsen, Deceuninck–Quick-Step
The Pro’s Choice for the Tour

At Stage 1 of the Tour, 5 of 8 Deceuninck–Quick-Step riders chose Turbo RapidAir. But the pros started riding RapidAir at the Tour Down Under, even before Fabio Jakobsen won Stage 4 of the Tour of California on RapidAir after a potentially race-ending flat was self-sealed.

FASTEST ON THE RIM

RapidAir’s not only made to go fast on the road, it´s made to mount and inflate fast too. We know, you’ve been told that before, right? Give RapidAir a try. Follow our simple process and RapidAir mounts confidently and inflates with a floor pump. All the benefits of tubeless, minus the hassle.

CHECK YOUR RIM’S COMPATIBILITY

While you’ll always have the best experience mounting S-Works Turbo RapidAir tyres on Roval wheels, we’ve installed these tyres on wheels from most major manufacturers, inflated them to the maximum tyre pressure and verified the tire fits correctly on the rim. Check our Compatibility Chart to see all the wheels we’ve verified, as well as notes to ensure you have a great experience setting up your RapidAir tyres.

This Changes Everything

Tubulars predate the rear derailleur, and we think 100 years at the top has been long enough. Turbo RapidAir combines the best of what we knew clinchers could deliver, while also exceeding the demands of the best riders in the world. The future belongs to Turbo RapidAir.
