The S-Works Tarmac might be the perfect bike for winning a Grand Tour, but when you're not competing in Southern France this season, you need a bike that's ready to annihilate the competition on your training rides and local races. Enter the new Tarmac Expert.
For the construction, Specialized utilised advanced aerospace composite optimisation software to revolutionise the construction and layup of the new FACT 10r carbon. It's the most advanced layup schedule Specialized have ever made; the shape, schedule, and material optimisation shed nearly 200g. That's a 20% reduction in frame weight, the perfect recipe for your next PR.
Specialized started by further improving their Rider-First Engineered™ technology to ensure that the new Tarmac is stiff and compliant in exactly the right places, all while shedding some serious weight. With this revamp, they also updated the geometry, basing it on countless Retül data points and professional rider input. This enabled them to develop a performance road geometry that perfects the combination of a responsive front-end and short wheelbase, delivering instantaneous response and optimal power transfer.
Featuring a 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 FACT 10r frame is the perfect blend of value and performance.
