Nothing is faster than the Tarmac SL8 thanks to a combination of aerodynamics, lightweight, and ride quality previously thought impossible. After eight generations and over two decades of development, it’s more than the fastest Tarmac ever - it’s the world’s fastest race bike. Your legs up for it?

Aerodynamics or lightweight alone don’t win races - speed is what matters. Delivering that speed requires creating an uncompromising combination of aerodynamics, lightweight, stiffness, and compliance. Through race simulations using real world data our Ride Science team knows the Tarmac SL8 is the fastest race bike ever made on the routes that matter - 16.6 seconds faster over 40km, 128 seconds faster over Milan San Remo, 20 seconds faster over the legendary Tourmalet climb.

  • AERO IN EVERYTHING: We’re putting aero where it matters - the leading edge - not just where it looks good. In the process we’ve created our most aerodynamic road bike ever. Yes, it’s more aero than the Venge. Clean air is optimized for maximum advantage with the Tarmac’s new nose cone - the Speed Sniffer. By moving the steer tube back - the tube that determines head tube width - the leading edge of the head tube can be much sharper, delivering a much lower drag shape. Utilizing new UCI rules, the Tarmac SL8 has the narrowest, most aero seat post we’ve ever made ensuring fast moving, dirty air around the legs can flow back more cleanly. Doesn’t victory smell sweet?
  • MINIMUM WEIGHT, MAXIMUM AERO: Tarmac SL8 took learnings from Aethos to be easily built at the UCI minimum with a full aero set up. The team delivered a mind bending, scale tickling 685 gram frame - 15% lighter than the Tarmac SL7 and lighter than anything on else on the World Tour*. With the ability to make lightweight a top priority in the down tube, seat tube, and rear of the bike lessons from Aethos were applied. The frame’s shape carries load so efficiently that extra carbon stiffness layers become redundant. *Unless of course you count the time Kasper Asgreen raced our 585 gram Aethos frame during a Tour stage.
  • GOES LIKE HELL, RIDES LIKE HEAVEN: With massive gains in stiffness-to-weight - an improvement of 33% over the SL7 - the Tarmac SL8 takes legendary handling, aggressive responsiveness and World Championship proven geometry to the next level. The bike is stiffer at the pedals, more precise at the bars, and combines it with a compliant ride in the saddle that sets a new benchmark for race bike comfort. Thanks to our Rider-First Engineering, every rider, regardless of size, gets the same unprecedented ride quality and handling. In the saddle the Tarmac SL8 delivers 6% more compliance, floating over rough road with a supple feel unique in the high strung world of race bikes. Tarmac’s proven geometry and 32mm tire clearance are identical to the SL7, ensuring easy adaptation and the versatility to run higher volume tires when needed.
  • BEYOND GENDER: There can be more difference between two male cyclists than between a male and female. Gender alone doesn’t provide nearly enough data to specialize and that means creating male or female bikes is arbitrary and outdated. Every rider can get the next level advantage of Tarmac SL8. It’s time to go Beyond Gender.

I've ordered a bike for pickup. Will it be assembled?

Absolutely! We take care of all the assembly work for you. Our experienced mechanics ensure that every bike is fully assembled and goes through a safety check before it's ready for you to collect. So, if you'd like, you can even ride it home from the shop right away!

Just a small note: a few bikes might not come with pedals included, so you might need to buy those separately. If you have any doubts or questions, feel free to ask us!

When will I get my order?

We strive to process and dispatch parts orders promptly. If we receive your order by 12 pm from Monday to Friday, we aim to have it shipped out on the same day. However, during peak sales or exceptionally busy periods, there might be delays.

Once your order is on its way, you will receive tracking information from our carriers, which will allow you to monitor the delivery progress.

For more specific estimated delivery times, we recommend visiting our carrier's website.

If you need further information or have specific shipping inquiries, please refer to our Shipping Policy or get in touch with our customer support team for additional details.

Can you ship a bike to me?

Certainly! We offer bike shipping directly to your home. When your bike arrives, it will come fully assembled, although some basic mechanical skills and tools may be needed for the final adjustments.

If you're unsure about assembling the bike yourself, we highly recommend seeking assistance from a local bicycle mechanic. Please note that if you choose to have a third party assemble or inspect your bike, any additional fees incurred will be at your own expense.

Our goal is to ensure that you receive your bike in the best condition possible, and we're here to support you throughout the process. If you have any questions or concerns about the shipping or assembly, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

Can you post overseas?

We're sorry, but we are unable to ship our products overseas. Our shipping services are limited to within our own country, and we do not facilitate shipments to international destinations.
