2026 Specialized Tarmac SL7 Sport – Shimano 105
The new Specialized Tarmac SL7 Sport is designed to go fast—no ifs, ands, or buts.
More than just an aerodynamic race bike, it delivers a perfectly balanced ride thanks to its
lightweight FACT 9r carbon frame and
Rider-First Engineered™ design philosophy.
Equipped with the Shimano 105 mechanical 12-speed groupset and fast-rolling
Turbo Pro 700x26mm tires, the Tarmac SL7 Sport offers true race-ready performance
at a more accessible price point.
Unlike traditional aero bikes that sacrifice weight, the Tarmac SL7 achieves a remarkable balance.
Its FACT 9r frame weighs just 1010 grams while maintaining aero efficiency,
stiffness, and ride quality—right at the UCI weight limit straight out of the box.
Developed with input from World Tour teams, the Tarmac SL7 delivers exceptional handling,
comfort for long rides, and the legendary snappy race feel that has defined the Tarmac name.
