Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL7 Disc Frameset

Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL7 Disc Frameset

Utilising Specialized’s highest grade FACT 12r carbon, the S-Works Tarmac SL7 Disc Frameset offers pedalling reactivity in swathes while keeping its weight to a minimum. This results in a lively ride sensation, especially when ascending the steepest mountain passes or accelerating towards the finish line. 

Tube shapes honed in the brand’s own “Win Tunnel” combine with internal brake hose routing to dramatically slash aerodynamic drag, while the Rider First Engineered concept balances lateral stiffness and vertical compliance from front to rear, guaranteeing an exceptional ride quality, regardless of the frame size. This ride quality is complemented by a race-inspired geometry that places the rider in a powerful, comfortable position over the pedals. Additional plushness over rough road surfaces is afforded by clearance for up to 32mm wide tyres.

Highlights

• A frame design that fuses aerodynamics, low weight and ride quality to produce the fastest possible ride
