With the S-Works Tarmac SL6 RED eTap AXS 12-Speed Disc Road Bike frame Specialized have added as many aerodynamic improvements as possible whilst keeping the lightweight character of the Tarmac intact. This has come in the form of a new fork, dropped seatstays with aero tubes and a seat tube and seatpost that use an aero D-shape. Thus Specialized claim to have shaved 45 seconds off a 40km race compared with other lightweight bikes.

The 12-speed SRAM AXS RED eTap groupset gives intuitive, fully wireless shifting for a super clean look and introduces a number of new concepts as well. SRAM have built on their groundbreaking first generation of fully wireless groupsets and upped the ante by improving every aspect and simplifying integration at the same time.
