Specialized S-Works Tarmac

It doesn't matter how you look at it, the S-Works Tarmac is a superb performer.

This build features a Fizik Antares R1 carbon saddle, just part of the standard Bespoke process to ensure that every bike is perfectly fitted.

The wider profile of the Antares gives added support, with their tried and tested WingFlex tech ensuring that your thigh movement isn't restricted. With a carbon fibre shell and rails it doesn't come at the expense of added weight either (just 160g for the R1 Regular).

The Tarmac's holo decals are complemented by the reflective Cinelli bar tape, and of course it's not just for looks, it's also superbly grippy with just the right amount of padding for comfort without excess bulk.
