Experience unbeatable speed and performance with the first-class 'Tarmac SL8 Pro - SRAM Force eTap AXS'. This road race bike is the result of more than two decades of innovative development by the renowned brand, Specialized. Crafted to deliver unparalleled speed, the bike incorporates cutting-edge aerodynamics, a featherweight frame, and unbeatable ride quality that set it apart as the world’s fastest race bike. Ready to put your legs to the ultimate test?
Powerful and precise, this bike ensures you always come first. Ride faster and smarter with our revolutionary aerodynamics design - carefully crafted for maximum advantage. An low-drag, sharp-edged head tube and ultra-narrow aero post ensure clean air flows back more efficiently. Not just a sight to behold, this advanced aerodynamic design also makes the Tarmac SL8 Pro more streamlined than ever before - outperforming even its breathtaking predecessor, the Venge.
Lightweight yet incredibly robust, this race bike takes inspiration from Aethos, demonstrating an exquisite balance between minimal weight and maximum aero. The frame weighs just 685 grams - lighter than any on the World Tour, and 15% lighter than its predecessor, the Tarmac SL7. This use of meticulous engineering and lightweight material creates a frame that carries load so efficiently that additional stiffness layers become redundant.
Rider comfort is at the heart of this bike's design, offering a supple feel unique in the high strung world of race bikes. Experience 33% greater stiffness-to-weight than the SL7 and revel in the smooth ride and superior control this delivers. The Tarmac SL8 Pro offers 6% more compliance than its precursor, ensuring a more comfortable ride over rough terrain. The proven geometry and, a first for the industry, 32mm tire clearance also allow for a higher volume of tires when needed.
Our 'Beyond Gender' philosophy ensures this race bike is meticulously crafted to meet the needs of all cyclists. Rather than male or female designs, the Tarmac SL8 Pro offers superior quality, comfort, and control customised to each individual rider.
Equipped with a comprehensive SRAM Force eTap AXS groupset featuring a power meter, a Roval Rapide CL II tubeless-ready wheelset, and a Roval Rapide handlebar with an SL7 stem, the Tarmac SL8 Pro is ready to race straight out of the box. Superior design, unbeatable performance - Welcome to the next level of race cycling.
