2018 Men's S-Works Tarmac

esta muy good

Una lama di bici e soprendenteme comoda se gommata al massimo delle possibilità (700x28) colorazione spettacolare!

I am 5'4"" so I am a bit on the shorter side. I always found myself looking at the smallest frame size anyone had to offer and feeling somewhat stuck. As soon as I threw my leg over the S-Works Tarmac SL6 I knew this was going to be an incomparable relationship between bike and rider. The geometry feels compact and comfortable, putting me right where i need to be. With a combination of the frame geo and a pair of S-Works Shallow Bend bars I feel like I can finally say goodbye to my 90mm stem and throw on a 100mm with ease. My bike finally feels like I can really dial in my position, being IN the bike as appose to on top of it. One of the things I noticed immediately was how this bike handles turns at speed. Keep in mind, smaller frames have a tendency to understeer or turn less sharply as intended. This is not the case with the SL6. The bike caught me by surprise with how quickly it responded to my demand, diving into the turn and holding speed throughout with ease. Ever ride direct mount brakes!? I was walking my bike out of Specialized Costa mesa up on the rear wheel, tapped the brake and almost sent the saddle in to my no-no spot. That is not my review of this braking system, but it is funny to see how something so familiar all of a sudden felt so unfamiliar… but in a good way. The stopping power of the direct mount system accompanied by some Dura Ace 9100 brakes had me slowing down way before my turns. You know what that means? Faster for longer. That is an adjustment I am looking forward to getting used to. This bike soaks up crude and bumpy surfaces like your new white shirt being introduced to a cup of coffee and the new seat post design is a real butt saver. The SL6 being as comfortable as it is, lacks nothing in the FAST department. Whether it's getting out of the saddle on a 10% climb or sprinting out the flats, this bike offers all of the stiffness and response you could ask for. You can FEEL that this bike is truly Rider First Engineered.

Ein Traum mit feiner Einschränkung. Das Kabelgewirr am Vorbau ist so einer Maschine nicht würdig! Hier muss eine Lösung her!

Had to replace the frame due to manufacturing fault of the fork the first month. 9 months after buying and 6 months of riding, with only 3k km, wheels deformed due to overheat (so said the warranty inspection). No misuse was found. Replacement not covered by warranty. Waited to get answer on warranty claim from Specialized/Roval for more than 2,5 months. Looks like rim brake version of SL6 was sold in Europe for one season only, now only disc brake is advertised in most countries. So after one season the bike is basically obsolete. Wish I had not bought it. Not worth the price.

9 months ago I gave it 4 stars and wished for more colors....well..I bought one and gotta tell yah...I love it! Deserves 10 Stars. Excellent ride and feel. No complaints. No regrets and proud to be an owner of the SL5 and SL6!

Thought the clx50 would let me down in tough climbing. However, combined with the super light and stiff frame set I can even use larger gear combination during climbing.

I bought the 54 cm. In white w/ slap your face red and black. I never want to ride any other bike again. My first Di-2 experience on a road bike. The guys at island Bicycles in key west were the best.

i will be the first to admit that my new 2018 Tarmac S Works is more bike than i will ever need. As a B Group Rider it is quite a large investment. But if you can make it make sense, it will be like riding your dream ride everyday. It has remarkable response to power input, amazing handling and the worlds greatest cool factor. I LOVE IT!!!

꿈의 자전거 부속,연결 하나 하나가 와벽하게 마무리 되어 있습니다.

Agree with more colors and SRAM eTap option would have been nice last fall. Overall, it's an amazing bike. Check out 701Cycle in Bismarck for great service, they did a wonderful job for us.

I do feel the difference in the sprint and climbs. No sure if I'm ready for the frame design; but it is a beaut! Need more color options.

I thing a perfect bike but need more colour combinations.

The best road bike I've ever ridden so far. Responsive, stiff and surprisingly comfortable

i'd buy the bike for the cornering alone!! it is very plush on rough/uneven roads, dampening the vibrations. u can feel the efficiency of the power transfer in how responsive it is when you put some pressure on the pedals. sprints like a charm. but, the paint jobs are either psychedelic or boring but the bike itself is anything but boring.

Ein Traum man möchte es gar nicht mehr hergeben. Es reagiert bei Abfahrten kontrolliert lässt keine wünsche offen. Die Entwickler haben wirklich noch einen drauf gelegt. Das Rad verschmelzt Fahrer und Strasse. Man muss es fahren und sagt ""Geil"" Antrittsschnell alle weiteren Komponenten wurden Top abgestimmt. Fazit ""Es geht nicht besser"" Gruß Tom
