Its advanced aerodynamics and lightweight design offer a ride quality that was once thought impossible. After eight generations and over twenty years of development, it is not only the fastest Tarmac ever but also the fastest racing bike in the world. Are you ready? Aerodynamics and low weight alone do not determine races; at the finish line, it’s all about speed. Achieving race speed requires a delicate balance of aerodynamics, weight, stiffness, and compliance. Our Ride Science Team, through racing simulations based on real data, has discovered that the Tarmac SL8 is the fastest racing bike ever made on crucial segments—16.6 seconds faster over 40 km, 128 seconds quicker at Milano–Sanremo, and 20 seconds swifter on the Tourmalet. AERO-AVANTGARDE: We focus on surfaces that truly matter, rather than just those that look good. With this philosophy, we have created the most aerodynamic racing bike of all time, and yes, it is more aerodynamic than the Venge. The newly designed head tube of the Tarmac SL8 better maintains airflow, with a sharper front surface. We call it the Speed Sniffer, and this streamlined profile of the head tube generates significantly less drag. Additionally, in accordance with the new UCI regulations for the Tarmac SL8, we have developed the narrowest and most aerodynamic Specialized seat post ever, allowing the rapidly moving turbulent air around the legs to flow cleanly away. A bike with a sense for victory. MINIMAL WEIGHT, MAXIMUM AERO: The Tarmac SL8 leverages insights from the development of the Aethos and easily meets the UCI weight limit, all while maintaining a complete aero setup. Our team has designed an incredible frame weighing just 685 grams—15% lighter than the Tarmac SL7 and lighter than all other World Tour bikes. Kasper Asgreen riding our Aethos with a frame weight of only 585 grams during a tour stage doesn't quite count. The new technical possibilities enabled us to optimize the weight of the down tube, seat tube, and rear end of the Tarmac, as the new frame shape distributes loads so efficiently that additional carbon layers for increased stiffness are no longer necessary.
