Sumarize

The S-Works Tarmac SL7 - SRAM Red eTap AXS model is an impressive example of the combination of aerodynamics and lightweight construction that Specialized pursues with its "no compromise" approach. This bike is characterized by the use of Specialized's most advanced technology and materials. Starting with the frame, which is made of FACT 12r carbon, the intention is to create an exceptionally light but also aerodynamic bike. The special construction, known as Rider First Engineered™, ensures that every rider, regardless of frame size, experiences optimal riding dynamics. In addition to the impressive frame construction, the bike takes advantage of Win Tunnel Engineered geometry, which ensures efficient airflow around the bike, minimizing drag. The Clean Routing method ensures that all cables are neatly routed within the frame, which not only benefits the aesthetics but also offers aerodynamic advantages. The heart of the drivetrain is the SRAM Red eTAP AXS system, which is known for its precise and fast gear changes. With 12 speeds, it offers a wide range of gear ratios for all climbs and descents. The high-quality setup is completed by hydraulic SRAM Red eTAP AXS disc brakes, which guarantee reliable braking performance in every situation. With such well thought-out components and the high quality of the frame and riding characteristics, this bike is aimed at serious road cyclists who are looking for a high-performance vehicle for training and competition.

The Tarmac SL7 is a thoroughbred race bike with a dedicated focus on being fast, perhaps better described as a lightweight Venge, but it's let down by lack of tubeless wheels

Pros
  1. +Aerodynamics and power transfer on par with Venge
  2. +Weight (6.89kg tested, size 58cm)

  2. -Harsher ride than Tarmac SL6
  3. -Huge price
