Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL6 Ultralight Road Bike 2018
Specialized's Tarmac is designed out and out to provide the fastest possible experience to the peak performance rider, scouting podium finishes and winner's jersey's. A pro-team issue at the very highest level, just how do you improve on something so rigorously and meticulously designed for speed? The answer lies in the Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL6 Ultralight Road Bike 2018.
Examining every single detail of its standard counterpart in order to make those minor adjustments that shave tenths of a second, this pared back edition makes use of eecyclework's extremely powerful and lightweight direct mount brakes, allowing you to maintain your braking performance whilst shading under the bar set by Shimano's standard callipers. A slightly modified frame offering tweaked weight-saving improvements over the standard Tarmac SL 6, this ultralight edition is sure to be the steed that conquers the climbs and steals the dotted jersey at the summit.
Cruising astride Roval CLX 32 wheels, designed specifically to make savings in weight whilst retaining an unflinching integral strength, you can be confident that your wheelset will deliver a stiff, rigid and un-flexing transfer of power, whilst offering up a neat 32mm depth for aerodynamics, giving you a slick and streamlined aerodynamic profile as you face the wind on your ride.
Making use of Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 9150 for the best possible response in your drivetrain and the smoothest shifting capability possible, you can be sure of a quick, light, and easy action in your biking. The frame made from Specialized's FACT 12r carbon fibre for improved strength and stiffness, this bike and it's lowered seat stays offer better feel, whilst a tapered front fork gives you a more direct feel, allowing you to intuitively steer into that corner with confidence of hitting the apex.

- Specialized FACT 12r carbon fibre
- Lowered seat stays for superior stiffness and aerodynamic response
