Specialized Tarmac SL8 Pro eTap Performance Road Bike: The Fastest Road Bike Ever
The Specialized Tarmac SL8 Pro eTap is built to be the fastest road bike in the world, with a blend of aerodynamics, lightweight design, and exceptional ride quality. After eight generations of development, the Tarmac SL8 outperforms all previous versions, setting a new standard for speed, efficiency, and handling. Whether you're racing or training, the Tarmac SL8 is engineered for ultimate performance on every route, offering unmatched advantages for serious cyclists.
Key Benefits for Riders
Unmatched Aerodynamics for Speed
The Tarmac SL8 is designed with aerodynamics in mind, incorporating features like the new Speed Sniffer nose cone and a narrower, more aero seat post. This gives the bike the lowest drag possible, allowing you to achieve faster speeds with less effort. These innovations, along with the sharp head tube and improved frame geometry, make the Tarmac SL8 more aerodynamic than the previous Venge model, delivering exceptional performance on every race or ride.
Performance Beyond Gender
The Tarmac SL8 is built to be adaptable for every rider, regardless of gender. Its Rider-First Engineering ensures that both men and women benefit from the same high-performance advantages. With its precise handling, aggressive responsiveness, and superior comfort, this bike is designed to offer a personalized experience, tailored to your individual riding style.
Stiffness-to-Weight Ratio and Comfort
With a 33% improvement in stiffness-to-weight over the SL7, the Tarmac SL8 is stiffer at the pedals and more precise at the handlebars. The bike also delivers a 6% increase in compliance, making it float smoothly over rough terrain while maintaining a responsive, race-ready feel. Thanks to its 32mm tire clearance, the Tarmac SL8 is versatile enough to handle various tire sizes for different conditions, ensuring comfort and speed on any ride.
Minimum Weight with Maximum Aero
At just 7.44 kg (16 lb, 6.4 oz), the Tarmac SL8 is incredibly lightweight without compromising on performance. By applying lessons from the Aethos, the Tarmac SL8 frame is built at the UCI minimum weight, while still maintaining exceptional aerodynamic capabilities. The frame's design efficiently carries load, allowing for reduced carbon stiffness layers, ultimately making the bike lighter and more responsive.
Top-Tier Performance with SRAM eTap
The SRAM Force eTap AXS groupset ensures precise and smooth shifting, while the power meter provides real-time data on your performance. With the Roval Rapide CL II tubeless-ready wheels, you’ll experience faster speeds and better control, thanks to their light yet durable construction. The bike also includes the Roval Rapide Cockpit for an integrated bar and stem that reduces weight and improves aerodynamics.
