The Specialized Tarmac SL8 Comp 105 Di2 sets a new benchmark in road racing, combining class-leading aerodynamics, ultra-lightweight design, and unmatched ride quality. Engineered from two decades of innovation, it’s not just the fastest Tarmac ever—it’s the fastest race bike in the world, designed to deliver pure speed on climbs, flats, and sprints alike.

Key Features:
  • World’s fastest race bike: Proven through real-world race simulations, up to 128 seconds faster over Milan San Remo compared to previous generations
  • Aerodynamic innovation: Speed Sniffer nose cone and narrow aero seatpost maximize airflow efficiency, making it more aero than even the Venge
  • Ultra-light frame: Weighs just 685g, 15% lighter than the SL7, inspired by Aethos for maximum stiffness-to-weight performance
  • Ride-first engineering: 33% improvement in stiffness-to-weight ratio, with unmatched precision at the bars and compliance in the saddle for long-distance comfort
  • Race-ready build: Shimano 105 Di2 electronic shifting, DT R470 tubeless-ready wheels, and Specialized shallow drop alloy bars for a responsive, accessible setup
  • Versatility and control: Proven World Championship geometry with clearance for up to 32mm tires for added comfort and adaptability
