Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL9 SRAM RED AXS — 2027 Road Bike

Frame: S-Works FACT 12r carbon, Rider-First Engineered and Win Tunnel Engineered, with a narrowed "Speed Sniffer" head tube, Win Fin rear fairing, and dropped downtube for reduced aerodynamic drag; threaded BSA bottom bracket and UDH derailleur hanger

Fork: S-Works FACT 12r carbon, twisted-blade "Flow Fork" design, 12x100mm thru-axle, flat-mount disc

Drivetrain: SRAM RED AXS E1, 12-speed wireless electronic shifting, 50/37t chainrings with integrated Quarq power meter

Brakes: SRAM RED E1 hydraulic disc, 160/160mm rotors

Wheels/Tyres: Roval Rapide CLX III carbon tubeless wheels (51mm front / 48.5mm rear depth) with Sinc ceramic bearing hubs, rolling on Specialized Cotton TLR 700x30c tyres (32mm max tyre clearance)

Cockpit: Roval Rapide integrated one-piece carbon bar/stem for a clean, aero front end, wrapped in Supacaz Super Sticky Kush tape

Weight: 6.6kg (14lb 8.8oz), size 56 — one of the lightest race bikes we carry

Standout feature: S-Works Rapide carbon seatpost with 15mm offset, purpose-built to work with the frame's aero profile while smoothing out road chatter

This is a bike for the rider who's already comfortable putting in serious kilometres and wants every gram and every watt working in their favour — think competitive club racers, gran fondo regulars, and anyone training with power on the valley's road routes. It rewards a rider who wants wireless SRAM RED shifting, an integrated power meter, and a sub-6.6kg build, not someone looking for their first road bike.

Our team at Fresh Air will help you find the right fit in-store at both Kelowna locations. Stop by to work with one of our experienced staff members, or call 250-763-3425.

As a Specialized dealer, our team can help you dial in contact points that matter most on a race bike like this — saddle height, reach to the integrated Roval Rapide bar, and cleat alignment for your pedal system. We'll also set correct tyre pressure for the 30c Cotton TLR tyres based on your weight and the roads you're riding, and pair the Quarq power meter to your head unit before you leave the shop. Because the cockpit and seatpost are fully integrated to the frame, we'll make sure fit adjustments are done right the first time.
