From the thrill of the start line to the rigorous group training ride, competitive road riders' need for speed lead them to bikes like the Tarmac that put light weight, stiffness and razor sharp handling above anything else. Ridden to victory by such greats as World Champion Paolo Bettini and Tom Boonen, the Tarmac continues to drive the podium with the most advanced race design in the Pro Tour.
- The Tarmac Expert’s FACT 8r carbon construction means it’s light and stiff, for incredible speed and efficiency.
- The S-Works FACT carbon monocoque fork has an oversized race for incredible strength and precision.
- The 3D-forged Pro-Set stem features an oversized bar-clamp area for sure, precise steering.
- The Specialized Pro alloy handlebar has a hand-friendly ergonomic shape, and an oversized clamp area for precision steering.
- The scientifically proven Body Geometry Toupé is easy on your soft parts.
- The Pro SL seatpost uses our FACT carbon construction for lightweight strength. The integrated Zertz insert absorbs energy-robbing vibrations.
