Prepare yourself for the ultimate ride with the Specialized Tarmac SL8 Expert, a bike that elevates speed and performance to unprecedented levels. Boasting over two decades of development, the Tarmac SL8 isn't just the fastest Tarmac available - it's been declared the world's fastest by racing experts.

The secret lies in an unbeatable fusion of aerodynamics, lightweight structure, stiffness, and compliance, all integrating seamlessly to offer uncanny speed. Harnessing real-world data, our Ride Science team has verified its blistering pace - this is no ordinary bike, but a ground-breaking leader in the industry.

  • Aero in Everything: designed for optimal air flow, this bike beats even the Venge in aerodynamics. The Tarmac's new nose cone - the Speed Sniffer - delivers a sharp leading edge, further reducing drag and maximizing speed.
  • Minimum Weight, Maximum Aero: The Tarmac SL8 weighs in at a feather-light 685 grams, making it the lightest bike on the world tour circuit. Borrowing the efficient load-carrying design of the Aethos, this bike efficiently carries load, rendering extra stiffness layers redundant.
  • Goes Like Hell, Rides Like Heaven: Improved stiffness-to-weight ratio means the Tarmac SL8 marries aggressive responsiveness with comfort, thanks to a 33% improvement over the SL7. The ride in the saddle offers a remarkably compliant experience, without sacrificing the speed and precision you crave.
  • Beyond Gender: At the cutting edge of modern design, the Tarmac SL8 is designed to fit riders, not generic gender categories. Every rider can experience the spectacular performance of this masterpiece, as we believe in evolving alongside our riders' needs.
  • Unbeatable Components: The Tarmac SL8 Expert features a full SRAM Rival eTap AXS groupset with power meter, a C38 carbon tubeless ready wheelset, and an SL7 stem paired with Expert Shallow Drop alloy handlebars.

Get ready for the ride of your life with the Specialized Tarmac SL8 Expert - a premium offering for passionate cyclists who crave speed, precision, and performance.
