Bike Specialized Tarmac SL7 Pro eTap 2022

Specialized Tarmac SL 7 Pro Force eTAP AXS bicycle in carbon color. Specialized manufacturer reference: 90622-1052

We designed the new Tarmac to offer you a unique experience, the perfect combination of aerodynamics, lightness and comfort. Improving tube shapes using our FreeFoil Shape Library, and evolving our Rider-First Engineered™ concept, the new Tarmac is the culmination of our relentless quest for speed. A true competition machine without compromises. One bike to rule them all.

The new Tarmac Pro offers the perfect blend of performance and value. A full SRAM Force eTap AXS 1x groupset aids in aerodynamic performance and will offer a gear range that offers plenty of range for most rides: a 46-tooth chainring with a 10-36 cassette. Add the new Roval Rapide CL with its exceptional stability and aerodynamic prowess, and the Tarmac Pro with SRAM eTap is perfect for racing, tearing up the rump or taking you to the next PR.

“Aero is everything”, we have preached it for years and it is still the engine of the new Tarmac. In our search for shapes that achieve the fastest frame that UCI regulations allow, we took a page out of the Venge's development book and turned to our FreeFoil Shape Library. Armed with an archive of the best designs, we headed into the Win Tunnel to put these setups through further testing and validation. The result? The new Tarmac is the fastest we've ever tested. No compromises, just pure speed.
While aerodynamics were paramount in the development of the Tarmac, and all of our race bikes, weight was the co-driver of this great ride. The previous “aero bikes” have always penalized in weight, the more you reduce aerodynamic drag, the more weight you add. The approach of the new Tarmac was to match, and even lower, the minimum weight established by the UCI, right out of the box and without sacrificing aerodynamics. We did it with the help of the FreeFoil Shape Library, tools like FEA isotopic analysis, and some magic from the best engineers in the business.
Continuing our interest in developing the perfect race bike, we employ our Rider-First Engineered™ philosophy to ensure that the new Tarmac is the most balanced and best performing, regardless of size. With an army of riders from our three World Tour teams, Boels-Dolmans, Deceuninck-Quick-Step and Bora-hansgrohe, we made modifications to the Tarmac based on its thousands of miles on the road. We balanced the behavior between the front and rear, so even the longest days in the saddle remain enjoyable, without giving up the Tarmac's celebrated handling and winning speed.
Building on insights from the Venge, the new Tarmac uses simple integration to create a stem-bar combo that's easy to live with. We've improved the cable routing for any configuration, mechanical transmission, traditional stems, round handlebars, etc., while maintaining its aerodynamic attributes. These same features also make it easy to work and travel with the new Tarmac. They are all advantages.
