Description
Specialized Tarmac SL6 Expert Road Bike 2018
The Specialized Tarmac SL6 Expert is a high quality road bike that provides the rider with the benefits of top-level specifications and engineering at a more affordable price point.
Constructed from FACT 10r carbon fibre, engineered specifically by Specialized to provide the highest levels of strength and rigidity, you can be assured of the lightest possible weight, helping you to climb with greater efficiency. With an impressive integral strength afforded by the FACT carbon fibre, this bike features the same high-end geometry as the pro-level S-Works range, with dropped seat stays improving the aerodynamics out on the road.
An Ultegra R8000 mechanical groupset provides the seamless, precise and accurate shifting expected from Shimano's second-best mechanical offering, while the direct mount brakes ensure responsively and modulated stopping power in varied conditions. Combining a 52/36T chainset with an 11-30T cassette, the Tarmac is as capable climbing as it is sprinting for the line.
Rolling on a Roval SLX 24 Wheelset, the performance is further enhanced. With their semi-deep profile, these wheels balance crosswind stability with aerodynamic efficiency to offer a confidence-inspiring ride in even the most blustery of conditions. Finished with 26mm Specialized S-Works Turbo Tyres, the rolling resistance is reduced while grip and stability are increased; a testament to this bikes versatility.
FEATURES:
- Specialized FACT 10r carbon fibre
- Lowered seat stays for superior stiffness and aerodynamic response
- Bladed seatstay tubes for enhanced rigidity and aerodynamics
- Concaved seat tube section for improved tyre clearance
- Roval SLX 24 Wheelset for efficient climbing
- D-Shaped seat post for comfort and increased aerodynamics
- Shimano Ultegra R8000 Groupset ensures crisp, reliable shifting
