This remarkable lightness doesn’t come at the cost of comfort or control; instead, it enhances the bike’s ability to deliver a ride that feels as exhilarating as it is effortless, going like hell and feeling like heaven.
Built to redefine what a race bike can be, the Tarmac SL8 sets a new benchmark for comfort and performance with its Rider-First Engineering. This ensures that every rider, regardless of frame size, experiences the same exceptional ride quality and responsiveness that has made the Tarmac a legend. The Tarmac SL8 Frameset is the ultimate foundation for your dream build, featuring a 68mm threaded bottom bracket for reliability, flat-mount disc brakes for superior stopping power, and seamless integration that allows for a clean and aerodynamic setup. Whether you’re aiming for the podium or simply want the best, the Tarmac SL8 is your ticket to a ride that redefines the limits of speed and performance.
With the Tarmac SL8, you’re not just riding the fastest race bike in the world—you’re embracing a new era of cycling excellence, where every component is engineered for victory, and every ride is an opportunity to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
