The S-Works Tarmac SL8 frame set is unmatched in speed. Its advanced aerodynamics and low weight combine for a ride quality that once seemed unreachable. After eight generations and more than twenty years of development, it is not only the fastest Tarmac ever built – it is the fastest racing bike in the world. Are you ready? Aerodynamics and low weight alone do not determine race outcomes; what matters at the finish line is speed. Achieving race speed requires a specific balance of aerodynamics, lightness, stiffness, and compliance. Our Ride Science Team has found through race simulations using real data that the Tarmac SL8 is the fastest racing bike ever made on critical courses, clocking an impressive 16.6 seconds faster over 40 km, 128 seconds quicker in the Milano–Sanremo, and 20 seconds faster at the Tourmalet.
