Specialized S-Works Tarmac Dura Ace Bike - 2017

There's no better vantage point than from the top step of a podium, and no bike in recent years has studied the race landscape from this height more than our S-Works. That's because we've engineered it with one, and only one, goal in mind—to be the fastest all-around bike on the planet. It sounds hyperbolic, sure, but if you need proof, just look at the Tarmac's trophy case, with wins in every Grand Tour and the last two World Championships. It features an impeccable S-Works FACT 11r carbon fibre construction that's unbelievably light, stiff, and reactive. This comes as a result of our Rider-First Engineered™ design that applies specificity to every tube size and carbon layup for every frame size. This creates the optimal balance of rigidity, weight, and responsiveness, so every frame, regardless of size, performs just as we intended. Of course, a frame of this pedigree only deserves the utmost in dressings, which is why we outfitted it with components that share an equally impressive history, like Shimano Dura-Ace 9000 and our all-new Roval CLX 32 wheels that are primed to make mincemeat out of the world's toughest climbs and descents.Featuring our Rider-First Engineered™ design that ensures every frame size has the same legendary climbing responsiveness and descending prowess you'd expect from a Tarmac. The S-Works FACT 11r frameset is our highest quality carbon frame, offering the ideal blend of lightweight and targeted stiffness.S-Works-specific FACT full carbon fork with tapered construction provides incredible front end stiffness and steering response for instantaneous accelerations and high-speed descents.The Roval CLX 32 wheelset merges aero with an astonishingly low climbing weight, making them the first choice for anyone whose rides see plenty of gains and long bouts in the wind.
