Introducing the S-Works Tarmac SL8 Frameset from Specialized, the culmination of more than two decades of development, designed for speed and performance in any race. With aerodynamics, lightweight, and ride quality combined like never before, the Tarmac SL8 offers unbeatable speed that shaves valuable seconds off your time and outclasses other competitive race bikes.

Our specialized Ride Science team has ensured that the Tarmac SL8 doesn't just win on paper, but on the road too. Rigorous race simulations covering a range of challenging terrains and demanding weather conditions have resulted in a race bike that doesn’t compromise on speed or handling. Experience the difference with an advantage of 16.6 seconds over 40km, 128 seconds faster over Milan San Remo, and 20 seconds faster over the legendary Tourmalet climb.

  • Aero in Everything: This bike redefines aerodynamics with features that truly push the boundaries. The new Speed Sniffer nose cone optimizes clean air, and the narrow, aero seat post ensures seamless air flow for superior speed.
  • Minimum Weight, Maximum Aero: At an impressively lean 685g, the Tarmac SL8 benefits from lessons learned from the Aethos to offer the ultimate in lightweight construction. The reduced carbon load enables lightweight priority in critical areas such as the down tube and rear of the bike.
  • Goes like Hell, Rides Like Heaven: With a 33% improvement in stiffness-to-weight over the SL7, the Tarmac SL8 balances unprecedented responsiveness with a nuanced, compliant ride. Regardless of the rider’s size, the S-Works Tarmac SL8 offers unparalleled ride quality and handling.
  • Beyond Gender: The Tarmac SL8 challenges traditional notions of gender in cycling, ensuring every rider can experience the next level of advantage imposed by the SL8. It’s time to go Beyond Gender.
  • Unbeatable features: The 68mm threaded bottom bracket, flat mount disc brakes, and seamless integration offer an irresistible starting point for your dream build.

With the S-Works Tarmac SL8 Frameset, you're not just investing in a bike; you're investing in speed, performance, and craft. Experience the future of race biking today.
