The Tarmac SL8 Pro - Ultegra Di2 from Specialized takes road cycling to a new level. With its Tarmac SL8 FACT 10r carbon frame, it combines aerodynamic efficiency with lightness and ride quality in a way that was previously thought impossible. This bike is the culmination of over two decades of development and is the result of the eighth generation of this series. Not only is it the fastest Tarmac ever built, it also claims the title of the world's fastest road bike. The frame is equipped with Rider First Engineered™ technology, which ensures balanced riding dynamics across all sizes. Together with Win Tunnel Engineered aerodynamics and clean cable routing, the Tarmac SL8 Pro offers unrivaled performance. The sophisticated design also includes a threaded BB and 12x142mm Thru-Axle for increased stability and a flat-mount disc mount that supports modern and powerful disc brakes. The FACT 10r carbon fork perfectly complements the frame and contributes to the impressive overall performance. In terms of brakes, this model relies on Shimano Ultegra Di2 R8170 for precise, hydraulic disc brakes that stop reliably in any situation. The Shimano Ultegra Di2 R8150 drivetrain guarantees fast and smooth gear changes with its 12-speed dynamics. In short, the Tarmac SL8 Pro - Ultegra Di2 is an exceptional choice for cyclists who don't want to compromise and are looking for the best in terms of speed, weight and riding experience.

Early signs are good. My time with the bike so far has been limited to just a single 47km loop, so this is far from a definitive verdict, but it feels fast and smooth, with handling on another level to the already-excellent SL7

Pros
  1. +Sharp handling
  2. +685g frame weight (claimed)
  3. +Stiff under power
  4. +Unassuming looks

Pros
  1. stylish and ergonomic Roval Rapide One-Piece cockpit
  2. ready-to-ride fully equipped bikes with an actual weight of 6.8 kg
Cons
  1. retrofit the Roval Rapide cockpit on the cheaper models
