Choosing between an aerodynamic or a climbing bike is no longer necessary, as the tarmac SL7 combines the best of both! Whereas in the past you had the Specialized Venge as a real race monster, people who wanted a 'fat bike' often chose this model. However, the disadvantage of the Venge is that it is very stiff and therefore a bit less comfortable. If you wanted to ride it for longer rides you noticed that the bike is not very forgiving. 

The Tarmac SL7 combines the best of the Venge and its predecessor, the Tarmac SL6. The frame uses the front end of the Venge and the comfort of the back end of the SL6's frame. That's exactly the beauty of carbon frames: by adding or omitting carbon mats, you can specifically influence the properties of a frame.

Reactions from SL7 riders are often lyrical and it is currently one of the most popular bikes in the Specialized range.

So whatever you have planned for your new Tarmac, personal records, king of the mountain or podiums, this one is always ready to help you achieve your own goals.
