How much does the S-Works Tarmac SL7 weight?

6.7kg
In its lightest build with Shimano Dura-Ace Di2, the S-Works Tarmac SL7 is claimed to weigh 6.7kg for a 56cm bike.

What bottom bracket does the Tarmac SL7 use?

All of the SL7 frame levels will now have a threaded English bottom bracket, meaning no deciphering what OSBB (Over-sized bottom bracket) is and no more creaking bottom brackets. This also means that the Specialized’s own Power Cranks that used a 30mm spindle will no longer be compatible.

Is Specialized Tarmac SL7 comfortable?

Put simply, Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL7 is one of the best bikes I’ve ever ridden. It might not be suitable for most peoples’ commutes but it is lightning fast and responsive. Given the lashings of performance ladled on, it’s also surprisingly comfortable to ride.

Is SL7 better than SL6?

On one hand, Specialized claims the SL7 is 45 seconds faster over 40k than the SL6. On the other hand, that claim was for the S-works build with the Aerofly II bars and Roval Rapide CLX’s, and the round bars and shallow aluminum wheels of the Comp build should be quite a bit slower.

Why are S-Works bikes so expensive?

Every part of a S-Works bike is delicate and it must be efficiently aligned with the other parts. Its frames, wheels and other parts must be in tune in order for it to be a great bike! That is why it is so expensive; any mistake in servicing it may bring down its value and usefulness.

How many spacers Tarmac SL7?

All three headset covers are included in the small parts box, or can be ordered as the plastic parts kit S202500009. If the rider is using a Tarmac stem, there are three 10mm spacers and one 5mm spacer available. The upper headset transition cover is placed on top of the spacers (if used).

When was Tarmac SL7 released?

Though the official launch happens on July 28th, the company dropped a tease of the next-generation Tarmac race bike into its Ride app. Due to embargoes and legal documents, I can only share what I figure out about the bike based on the renderings in the app.

How Aero is the SL7?

The SL7 is certainly more aerodynamic than the SL6, though. Simply moving the cables and brake lines internal is a big improvement there (cylinders, like a brake line, are bad for drag figures). According to Specialized, the SL7 will save you 45 seconds over 40km compared to the SL6.

What is the difference between Specialized and S-works?

One of the Specialized road bikes has no difference between the S-Works and Pro aside from the fact that the seatpost and fork are lighter on the S-Works model. Another they have an aluminum BB shell rather then a carbon one. That and some of the S-works come with Ceramic Bearings.

Is the specialized s-Works Tarmac disc rim brake?

This Specialized S-Works Tarmac Disc review was always going to be difficult to write. We loved the rim brake version but how does this model differ other than by its brakes? Principally, there’s a far more nuanced ride quality that comes from those more powerful brakes.

Which is the best tarmac disc on the market?
