Product Details

The Tarmac SL4 is a pure and unbridled race machine. It climbs effortlessly, descends confidently, and sprints ferociously. It's the lightest, stiffest frame we make and it shows as soon as you push on the pedals. Bottom line, you'll be faster on this bike. There's a reason it's the weapon of choice for the Saxo-Tinkoff, Astana and Omega Pharma-Quick-Step Pro Tour teams.

Specialized SL4 FACT 10r carbon frame with uniquely shaped, tapered headtube and OSBB is now even stiffer and lighter for pure, unbridled speed and power, paired with tapered, full-monocoque FACT carbon fork for ultimate steering precision
Roval Rapide CL 40 full carbon clincher wheelset delivers a perfect balance of aerodynamics, stiffness and weight
Specialized Pro FACT carbon crankset is OSBB with a removable spider and an unparalleled stiffness-to-weight ratio for maximum efficiency and power transfer
New SRAM Force 22, 11-speed shifters with DoubleTap technology deliver a lightweight package that performs with clear, defined shifting
