S-Works Tarmac SL8 Frameset

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Tarmac SL8 is the fastest bike I’ve ever ridden, hands down. Its unique aerodynamic innovations, like the narrowed head tube and aero seatpost, shave off those crucial seconds, while its featherweight frame makes climbs feel effortless. Perfect for competitive riders looking to level up."

Racing to the edge of possibility, the S-Works Tarmac SL8 Frameset redefines speed. Leveraging over two decades of refinement, this frame is designed to optimize every element of performance. Its aerodynamic nose cone and sharp-edged head tube slice through the air, reducing drag where it matters most. The FACT 12r carbon frame weighs a mere 685 grams, delivering the lightest, most efficient ride possible without compromising stiffness.

The SL8's advanced geometry is coupled with Rider-First Engineering, ensuring that every frame size performs with the same agility and precision. This, combined with increased stiffness at the pedals and enhanced compliance at the saddle, provides a ride that’s both reactive and smooth. Flat-mount disc brake compatibility and a threaded bottom bracket add modern reliability, while tire clearance for up to 32mm offers versatility across disciplines. For those chasing victory and personal bests, the Tarmac SL8 is your ultimate racing partner.
