At Escapa, we know that the most exceptional bikes start with a great frame. That’s why we’re introducing the new Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL9 2027 Frame—the foundation for building a race bike with no limits, designed for riders seeking peak performance in every detail
Key Features:
Frame: FACT 12r Carbon: 687 grams
Fork: FACT 12r Carbon
Headset: Ceramic Speed SLT
Seatpost: S-Works Rapide
Time to Finish: Designed to Get There Faster
The philosophy behind the Tarmac SL9 is simple: a road bike should be faster in real-world conditions, not just in the wind tunnel or on the scale. Specialized developed this platform with a single goal in mind: to reduce total race time by combining aerodynamics, light weight, and ride quality in a single bike. The result is a frame capable of turning every effort into more speed on the road.
Aerodynamics
The new generation of the Tarmac SL9 features a complete evolution of its geometry to improve aerodynamic efficiency. The front end has been redesigned to better manage airflow, while solutions such as the new Flow Fork and optimizations to the rear end help reduce drag as speed increases. Aerodynamics developed to make a difference where it really counts: in the race.
An Exceptionally Light Frame
Constructed from FACT 12r carbon, the S-Works Tarmac SL9 frame has a claimed weight of just 687 grams, placing it among the lightest aero road frames ever created by Specialized. This lightness allows for the construction of extremely competitive bikes without sacrificing the aerodynamic efficiency or stiffness necessary for peak performance
The Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL9 frame is the ultimate expression of modern racing: faster, lighter, and ready to become the ultimate bike you’ve always imagined.
