Key highlights
every frame size gets its own carbon layup so ride quality and handling stay consistent across the whole range, not just one sample size.
a redesigned fork shape and dropped seatstays make the Tarmac roughly 30 seconds faster over 40km than the Tarmac SL5, with no aero-for-weight trade-off.
reliable 11-speed shifting paired with Shimano 105 hydraulic disc brakes for consistent, all-weather stopping power.
durable, tubeless-ready wheels built to handle everyday training and racing miles.
