Ultimate Speed and Performance
The Tarmac SL8 is the world's fastest race bike, combining aerodynamics, lightweight design, and exceptional ride quality. Developed over two decades and eight generations, it surpasses previous models in speed and performance. The Tarmac SL8 is designed to win races with its unmatched combination of aerodynamics, stiffness, and compliance.
Unmatched Aerodynamics and Design
The Tarmac SL8 excels in aerodynamics where it matters most. The innovative Speed Sniffer nose cone and narrow, aero seat post reduce drag significantly. Utilizing new UCI rules, the bike features a sharper head tube and optimized airflow, making it more aerodynamic than previous models. This design ensures maximum speed and efficiency on any race route.
Lightweight and Comfortable Ride
Weighing just 685 grams, the Tarmac SL8 is 15% lighter than its predecessor, the SL7. The frame is engineered for stiffness and comfort, providing a responsive and smooth ride. With improved stiffness-to-weight ratio and Rider-First Engineering, every rider experiences consistent performance and comfort, regardless of size. The bike also maintains the proven geometry and tire clearance of the SL7, offering versatility and ease of adaptation.
