Tarmac SL8: The World’s Fastest Race Bike

The Tarmac SL8 is not just the fastest Tarmac ever made—it’s the fastest race bike in the world. After eight generations and over two decades of relentless development, the SL8 sets a new standard in road cycling with an unparalleled combination of aerodynamics, lightweight construction, and exceptional ride quality. Designed through extensive race simulations and real-world data, the Tarmac SL8 delivers unmatched speed, shaving crucial seconds off race times, whether on flat terrain, long climbs, or legendary routes like Milan-San Remo.

Key Features:

• Aerodynamic Design: Featuring the Speed Sniffer nose cone and the narrowest, most aero seat post ever, the Tarmac SL8 optimizes airflow where it matters most, outperforming even the Venge in aerodynamics.
• Ultra-Lightweight Frame: Weighing in at just 685 grams, the SL8 is 15% lighter than its predecessor, the SL7, and incorporates design lessons from the Aethos for maximum efficiency and minimal weight.
• Superior Stiffness-to-Weight Ratio: With a 33% improvement over the SL7, the SL8 offers aggressive responsiveness and precise handling, combined with a compliant ride that ensures comfort without sacrificing performance.
• Rider-First Engineering: Ensures that every rider, regardless of size, experiences the same exceptional ride quality and handling, with a 6% increase in compliance for smoother rides on rough roads.
• Versatile Geometry: The Tarmac SL8 maintains the proven geometry and 32mm tire clearance of the SL7, allowing for easy adaptation and the option to run higher volume tires.
