S-WORKS Tarmac SL9

S-WORKS Tarmac SL9

One Bike To Rule Them All

The all new S Works Tarmac SL9 is the fastest road bike Specialized has ever created. It is lighter, more aerodynamic and more refined than any Tarmac before it, delivering the lowest real world time to finish of any road bike in the brand's history.

Every aspect of the SL9 has been developed with one goal in mind, helping you ride faster. Whether you're attacking a climb, driving the pace on the flat or descending with confidence, the Tarmac SL9 transforms more of your effort into pure speed. Proven on real race courses, across real terrain and by the world's best riders, this is the ultimate race machine when every second counts.

Built around the incredibly light 687 gram FACT 12r carbon frame, the SL9 combines Rider First Engineered construction with Specialized's Win Tunnel aerodynamic development to create a bike that excels in every situation. Paired with the latest SRAM RED AXS E1 groupset, Roval Rapide CLX III wheels and an integrated Roval cockpit, this is uncompromising performance from front to back.
