Introducing the all-new Specialized Tarmac SL7. One bike to rule them all.
Gone are the days where you were forced to choose between a light bike or an aero bike. The new Tarmac SL7 is designed equally for climbing and sprinting, waving goodbye to compromise, and your competitors.
Merging the best of the Tarmac and the Venge into one, the Tarmac SL7 weighs in just under the UCI limit out the box, without sacrificing on aerodynamics, stiffness or ride quality.
Available now at Bike Society.
New 2021 Specialized Tarmac SL6 + SL7 Range
The new Tarmac SL7 has the perfect blend of aerodynamics, light weight, and ride quality to deliver the ride of your life.
Aero Integration
Building on the learnings from the Venge, the new Tarmac utilizes simple integration to create a clean, fast cockpit that’s easy to live with. Routing for any configuration is improved – mechanical shifting, traditional stems, round bars, etc. – all while keeping its aerodynamic attributes. These same traits also make the new Tarmac easy to work on and easy to travel with. It’s a win-win.
Whether the road turns up, the headwinds kick in, or you’re lining it up for the closing sprint on the day, this bike is ready for anything that racing can throw at it.
Faster by 45 seconds
After two decades of Tarmac development, Specialized found a way to go 45 seconds faster over 40k compared to the Tarmac SL6, without adding a gram of weight. How? By targeting the tubes that truly impact aero – seat tube, seatstays, head tube, fork blades – with shapes from the Specialized FreeFoil Shape Library and pairing them with hidden cables and the fastest components.
Rider-First Engineered™
With extensive data acquisition of forces through every conceivable part of the frame during real world testing, the Rider-First Engineered™ process delivers the optimal balance of stiffness, weight and ride quality from size 44cm to 61cm, ensuring every rider gets the same legendary Tarmac ride quality.
