Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL8 Frameset (Gloss Dolomite Metallic/Oasis) (54cm)

Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL8 Frameset Description:

The Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL8 Frameset is designed for speed across any ride profile. Building upon the SL7’s “one bike to rule them all” mantra, the Tarmac SL8 takes this all-around winning design and shaves weight while prioritizing aerodynamics and stiffness. The “Speed Sniffer” front design sets the headtube back away from the bike’s leading edge, allowing for a sharper, lower drag shape. Regarding its stiffness-to-weight ratio, the SL8 provides a 33% gain over the SL7, making this bike equally suitable for all-out sprints or hillclimb finishes. The SL8 is a winning formula designed to take on the most competitive races in the world.

Features:

• Aero In Everything design prioritizes aerodynamics in every element of the frame design
• The “Speed Sniffer” sets the headtube back and creates a sharper edge and lower drag shape
• Lighter than the SL7 while remaining super stiff (33% increase in stiffness-to-weight ratio)
• S-Works Tarmac SL8 FACT carbon seatpost is narrower and more aero
• 32mm tire clearance allows riders to run wider road tires
• Frame is designed to be “beyond gender” as Specialized research shows there is no need for separate bike designs for men and women
• The threaded BSA bottom bracket compatibility provides easy maintenance and is less likely to develop creaking noises
• Only compatible with Shimano Di2 and SRAM AXS groupsets
