PRODUCT DETAILS
The Tarmac SL9 Expert is the sweet spot of the range — the same Rider-First Engineered and Win Tunnel Engineered SL9 race chassis in FACT 10r carbon, specced with a full Shimano Ultegra Di2 electronic groupset. Roval C38 tubeless-ready carbon wheels and 30mm S-Works Turbo tires give you race-day speed and everyday comfort in one bike, at 7.53 kg (16 lb, 9.6 oz, size 56).
01

AERO WHERE IT MATTERS: 4 WATTS FASTER

The Tarmac SL9 is the most aerodynamic road race bike we've ever tested. Drawing directly from Tarmac SL8 learnings and decades of aero research, every tube on Tarmac SL9 was re-sculpted for speed at World Tour races. The Speed Sniffer head tube is now 4mm narrower, delivering a 10 percent reduction in frontal area. The Win Fin channels airflow around the rear for the true aerodynamics of breakaway racing. A dropped down tube works in tandem with the Speed Sniffer and the Flow Fork — a breakthrough twisted-blade design that delivers smoother airflow and measurable drag reduction.
02

NOTHING IS LIGHTER: FLOW STATE DESIGN DELIVERS AN 822 GRAM FRAME

Speed everywhere, all day. Telepathic handling, instant response, and sublime compliance unite to make you one with the bike. Rider-First Engineered means every size from 44cm to 61cm receives the same uncompromising performance.
03

FASTEST ROAD BIKE EVER MADE: ONE BIKE TO RULE THEM ALL

The Tarmac SL9 delivers the lowest real-world Time To Finish of any road bike we have ever tested. When the goal is to cross the line first, no road bike gets you there faster. Proven through the most comprehensive road race simulations ever created: Tarmac SL9 would have made Demi Vollering 14 seconds faster in the final stage of the 2024 Tour de France Femmes — the difference between heartbreak and history.
