Key Benefits for Riders
Uncompromised Aerodynamics
Aerodynamics is at the heart of the Tarmac SL7 Expert, with the goal of delivering the fastest frame allowed by UCI rules. By utilizing the FreeFoil Shape Library and testing with the Win Tunnel, the Tarmac SL7 Expert is 33 seconds faster over 40km than its predecessor, the Tarmac SL6. The optimized tube shapes and the modular test bike have resulted in a bike that's built for pure speed, without any compromises.
Rider-First Engineered for Best Handling
With the Rider-First Engineered™ philosophy, the Tarmac SL7 Expert is the most balanced and best-handling Tarmac yet. By gathering data from riders of all sizes, including top professionals from teams like Boels-Dolmans, Deceuninck-Quick-Step, and Bora-hansgrohe, the frame was designed to ensure superior ride quality and comfort, even on long rides. The bike’s geometry and handling are optimized to deliver exceptional responsiveness and stability without sacrificing comfort.
Lightweight Performance with Maximum Aero
The Tarmac SL7 Expert is a race bike that breaks the mold. While many aero bikes sacrificed weight for drag reduction, the Tarmac SL7 remains below the UCI weight limit while maintaining top-tier aerodynamics. With a frame weighing just 920 grams, the bike is lighter than many competitors without compromising on stiffness, ride quality, or aero performance. This balance makes it one of the fastest and lightest race bikes available.
