The S-Works Tarmac SL8 is unbeatable in speed. Its advanced aerodynamics and light weight deliver a ride quality that once seemed unattainable. After eight generations and more than twenty years of development, it is not only the fastest Tarmac ever made; it is the fastest racing bike in the world. Are you ready? Aerodynamics and low weight alone do not win races – at the finish line, it’s all about speed. Achieving race speed requires a precise balance of aerodynamics, weight, stiffness, and compliance. Our Ride Science Team has determined through racing simulations based on real data that the Tarmac SL8 is the fastest racing bike ever built on critical courses: it is 16.6 seconds faster over 40 km, 128 seconds quicker at Milano–Sanremo, and 20 seconds faster on the Tourmalet.
