For those with a need for speed, the power and responsiveness of the Men's Tarmac Disc Expert by Specialized is sure to impress. Whether you aim to conquer a local crit or outpace your friends on weekend rides, you cannot go wrong with this iconic model.

This bike utilises enhanced Rider-First Engineered™ technology, ensuring optimal stiffness and compliance at key points. This has been achieved by varied layup schedules, superior materials, and noticeably differentiated forks. The result is an expertly crafted ride, tailored to the exacting requirements of powerful road performance.

Accompanying this is a well-considered update in geometry, inspired by an array of Retül data points and invaluable professional rider input. This results in a Performance Road Geometry that excels in combining a responsive front-end with a short wheelbase, enabling instant reaction and maximum power transfer.

Compliance is key for optimum ride quality. Therefore, a seatpost has been designed that incorporates compliance into the upper 120mm, where clamping isn't required. Alongside lower seatstays and a redesigned seat tube, this allows for increased tyre clearance of up to 30mm. This equates to a 28mm Turbo Cotton tyre on a Roval C 38 Disc wheel, offering reduced rolling resistance, enhanced traction, and added comfort. This superb balance of improvements maintains the Tarmac's reputation as a true racing machine, while smoothing out those road bumps.

The choice of disc brakes is a nod to superior control and speed. Known for their exceptional braking power and modulation, as well as their excellent functionality in wet weather, disc brakes enhance your riding experience, reassuring you with confidence.

Aerodynamics are also a key factor in this bike's design. The aim was to enhance aerodynamics without compromising the trademark Tarmac design. Following a rigorous six-month process, several significant adjustments were made: a new fork shape was introduced, the seatstays were dropped with aero tubes, and a D-shaped seatpost and seat tube were implemented. The final product is a bike that's an impressive 45 seconds faster over 40km against comparable lightweight bikes.

The superb value of the Tarmac Disc Expert is completed by its exceptional build specification. The bike boasts Shimano Ultegra mechanical shifting, Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, and a Roval C 38 Disc carbon fibre wheelset, making this a pinnacle of road racing performance.
