Our S-Works Tarmac might be the perfect bike for winning a Grand Tour, but chances are, you won't be competing in Southern France this season. But when you need a bike that's ready to dominate the competition on your training rides and local races, the new Tarmac Expert is hard to beat.For the construction, we used advanced aerospace composite optimization software to revolutionize the construction and layup of our new FACT 10r carbon. It's the most advanced layup schedule we've ever made - the shape, schedule, and material optimization allowed us to shed nearly 200 grams. That's a 20% reduction in frame weight, perfect for setting your next personal record.We improved our Rider-First Engineered technology to ensure that the new Tarmac is stiff and compliant in the right places, all while shedding some serious weight. With this revamp, we also updated the geometry, based on countless Retül data points and professional rider input. This enabled us to develop a performance road geometry that combines a responsive front-end and short wheelbase for instantaneous response and optimal power transfer.Stiffness is important, but compliance is also necessary for an optimal ride quality. That's why we designed a seatpost that builds compliance into the upper 120mm, dropped the seatstays, and altered the seat tube shape. We also added tyre clearance up to 30mm, allowing lower pressures for decreased rolling resistance, increased traction, and more comfort. These additions maintain the Tarmac's race-like performance while reducing the impact of road imperfections.Aerodynamics are crucial for speed, and we made sure to prioritize this aspect. Our Pro Tour riders demanded aero improvements on every bike. Through a six-month iterative process, we discovered three areas where we could "add aero for free" without taking away from the Tarmac's design - a new fork shape, dropped seatstays with aero tubes, and a D-shaped seatpost and seat tube. The result is a bike that's approximately 45 seconds faster over 40km compared to other lightweight bikes in the same category.This Tarmac comes ready to race, featuring a Shimano Ultegra 8000 groupset, Roval CL 50 carbon wheelset, and a Toupé Expert Gel saddle.
