Résumé

The Specialized Tarmac is celebrated for its race-ready performance, offering a blend of stiffness, aerodynamics, and handling precision across its model family. It features size-specific designs for optimal performance, with improvements in comfort and aerodynamics over previous generations. While some models may carry additional weight or have component limitations, the Tarmac consistently delivers a responsive and engaging ride.

Pros
  • Steady and calm frame even at high speeds

  • Improved handling across all sizes

  • Size-specific frames for optimal performance

  • Stiff racing frame with powerful sprinting ability

  • Comfortable ride with excellent vibration damping

Cons
  • Larger frames are a bit heavier than their predecessors

  • Disc-brake frames weigh about 80 grams more than rim-brake versions

  • Lower-grade carbon construction compared to range-topper

  • Heavy wheels slow it down

Key Quotes
The bike is so distinct from previous versions that Specialized considered calling it something other than Tarmac
Bicycling
With the latest Tarmac, Specialized has shown that improving a bike, even a race model designed to win the Tour de France, requires more than increasing stiffness and reducing weight
Bicycling
It's simply a very good road bike, with an emphasis on speed and that highly tuned handling that has been developed on the racing circuit making it a lot of fun to ride.

Points forts
  • Sorted handling that the tarmac is famous for, luxury tyres

Points faibles
  • Brakes could be a little sharper
