The S-Works Tarmac SL8 is unbeatable in terms of speed. Its advanced aerodynamics and lightweight construction create a ride quality that once seemed unattainable. After eight generations and over 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 determine race outcomes – at the finish line, it all comes down to speed. Achieving race speed requires a precise balance of aerodynamics, lightweight design, stiffness, and compliance. Our Ride Science Team has discovered through race simulations based on real data that the Tarmac SL8 is the fastest racing bike ever built on crucial routes, clocking in 16.6 seconds faster over 40 km, 128 seconds quicker in the Milano–Sanremo, and 20 seconds faster on the Tourmalet. The world's fastest racing bike is now equipped with the SRAM RED AXS complete group with power measurement – the lightest electronic group ever – alongside a tubeless-ready Roval Rapide CLX II wheelset. All S-Works Tarmac SL8 models feature an ultra-lightweight Roval Rapide cockpit, designed for razor-sharp precision and victory.
