Specialized Tarmac SL8 Expert

Meet the Specialized Tarmac SL8, the pinnacle of road bike engineering and the fastest Tarmac ever created. Decades in the making and honed through eight generations, the SL8 combines cutting-edge aerodynamics, ultra-lightweight construction, and unparalleled ride quality to deliver speed previously thought unattainable. From sprinting to climbing, this is the world’s fastest race bike, proven to save up to 16.6 seconds over 40km. Are your legs ready for the challenge?

Engineered with a relentless focus on aerodynamics where it matters most, the Tarmac SL8 introduces revolutionary features like the Speed Sniffer nose cone and most aero seatpost that Specialized has ever produced. At just 685 grams, its frame is 15% lighter than the SL7 while offering a mind-blowing 33% improvement in stiffness-to-weight ratio. Whether you’re hammering on the pedals or carving precise lines through corners, the SL8 rides like a dream with 6% more compliance for comfort over rough roads and clearance for 32mm tires. Thanks to Rider-First Engineering and a gender-inclusive design philosophy, every cyclist can experience the SL8’s unmatched speed, handling, and versatility. Victory has never felt—or looked—this good.

Sizing Guide

The sizing chart is a great place to start when picking your next bike but everyone will fit a bike a bit differently. Your torso, arm, and leg lengths all play into what size of bike you may need. Plus, there's your own personal preference.

We always recommend swinging by the shop and taking the bike that you're looking for a spin to see how it feels. If you're unable to come by, looking at the geometry of your current bike and comparing it is a good place to start. If you have any further questions, our customer service team is there to help.
