Tarmac SL7: Made in Racing 

It’s been years since I’ve hear that noise, it’s time to get back on the saddle. Your comment hyped me up man. Thank you

Good choice. Thanks for the support and enjoy the ride!

Where do you live?

Chapeau. Nice to gift oneself such a bike in 2020 :-) It's all on you now so go and have fun. As in a LOT :-) You'll have a bike that only a few years back World Tour pro would have admired; envied. As soon as other weekend warriors have the money, I think the SL7 will be a massive seller for the brand. All the initial reviews look very good. Next up: The Chinese copy brands already have the moulds ready to go for their SL7 versions lol

Pol: I was merely sharing a.choice, not bragging. Why should you opine over someone else’s choice and then sarcastically laugh just because an inferior copy might later be made by the Chinese (as usual, since they don’t have the technology to create something as this on their own). Just ride and enjoy your Chinese bike.

@SEAL CYCLE until the other Indian made a faster and more accurate arrow.

You will one day! 🙌

I can relate, just one great one to hang on a wall whilst the others are resigned to a shed 👍

Everybody on every comment section of videos said that 😀 it's crazy expensive for a bike

That type of cash for a bike isn't worth it my friend

@@DrLol07 unless cash isn't an issue for the buyer. A greater tragedy would probably 😔 be spending only to use it as wall art. I suppose at any price not riding is

It's an elitist sport for sure. Although personally I see where you're coming from, only you know if you're still going to have fun and achieve your goals on a less expensive build. If it takes full carbon and electronic everything for you to be happy... well that's on you.

@@paul_hd1875 really great way to look at it. Raced on electronic shifting, expensive carbon bikes, ultra light and fast. My experience mechanical shifts beautiful. Every click provides such nice feedback (electronic won't give that same feeling). Mid range bikes (ultegra spec), with a really nice set of wheels in my experience is the best bang for your dollar and just as quick.

@@jaspreetsidhu5708 Good info bro. Any mid range bikes u would recommend?

@@norcalchrismeister Honestly it depends on what you're looking for, strictly road, gravel, (maybe even mountain). I'd say go to some shops try different bikes/sizes see what works best for you. Also look at what you'll use if for my carbon bikes get babied, my aluminum/steel bikes get beat down from bikepacking and gravel riding. Scott overall makes great bikes for reasonable prices, specialized (expect to pay 20-30% more), cervelo has horrible warranty support, canyon is good overall (but haven't dealt with them personally).

@@jaspreetsidhu5708 Thanks for the info. I have a Domane SL5 which is great for long endurance rides but I also want a lightweight climbing bike. It's funny you mention Scott because I'm seriously considering their Addict RC 30 bike. Another bike I'm considering is the Giant TCR Advanced Pro 1 Disc but most of my local dealers are sold out. The Cervelos look nice, but if they have horrible support, I'll stay far away from them lol.

You'll get there.

Keep working to your goals dude.

You can get it from Bums on the saddle, contact them, they are the Indian only dealers for specialized/sworks.

True af brother.

ahhh unlucky if only u lived near me bc the bikes everyone has in iowa are specilized

Because you prefer the rims heating up or weaker braking performance?

@@super8hell cuz it looks better for me

Don't get used to it. Hahaha.

🤣🤣

If you want to go fast. But I see what ya did there lmao

How long have you been biking for? If you're just starting out it's absolutely not recommended you start out by A. just starting out racing and B. purchasing an expensive competition race bike. I started cycling not too long ago and just got an Allez. By the sounds of it you haven't really had a road bike? Let me know, I could be wrong.

@@ethanwong1395 I’m looking to join a cycling team, and my road bike is a Motebecane. It just pretty heavy and isn’t very aero. I’m thinking about training on the Motebecane for things like Zwift in the winter, and maybe buying a Specialized Allez Sprint for road racing, like Crits.

Sounds like you have a brake dilemma, so here are the pros and cons for each brake type: Rim brake Pros: Lighter, cheaper, easier to work on and maintain Cons: More expensive consumables (brake pads + rims), not as powerful and modulating as disc brakes (depending on what wheelset and brake pads you're using, carbon braking surfaces generally fare worse than aluminium ones), heavier rims (reinforcement is needed to take on the heat from braking) Disc brake (most are hydraulic) Pros: More powerful, better modulation, cheaper consumables (brake pads + brake discs + hydraulic fluid), lighter rims (since nothing is rubbing on them now) Cons: Increased maintenance complexity (ex. brake bleeding), more expensive, heavier Since you said you live in a flat region, I think you'll be fine with rim brakes.

Only bb shell. You choose between bb30 and bsa

We forgot to add the rest of the line...."And in the S-Works bind them."

This.

Specialized Bicycles Love it! Hahahha

@@iankovski lel

Welcome to 2020

Sorry about that.

Hahahaha up

Because it's dope.

Framesets will still be available this year in select regions, but largely, yes.

Original 😴😴😴

and when you sit down a needle injects your buttocks with as much originality as it could possibly muster

Pro Tour mechanics operate on a different plane.

@@specializedbicycles sawing like that doesn't look pro. That's garage mechanic.

@@cliffcox7643 the dude probably cuts dozens of fork tubes a season that way, its like buttering toast for him...

pretty sure it goes up to a 64...

Justin Hodges pretty sure I do, I own a bike shop which sells both Trek and Specialized aha

Bru I back you on this,these okes made millions on the Venge....so that they can gather info?bull💩 I work for a very successful manufacturing company and we do the same as soon as sales hit a Plato and knowing our market so well we know when to relaunch a shelved brand within the company or innovate on a flagship. How did they not know that the Tarmac sl6 was perfect in a sprint when Sagan took a world championship jersey in a all out drag race sprint with Alexander...Secondly the customers (I was one of them) of specialized always will be in the Gaza Strip between Trek and Themselves for the no1 USA brand bike manufacturer it’s sad because they just making the sport more unattainable for any young talent due to the house mortgage price they give these bikes...but hey who am I? Just another dollar in the Sworks pocket and just as a footnote, take a screen shot because rim brakes will be fazed out but will return within 10years again and we will pay double for that sh!t again #overthismonopoly #sorryfortherant

JPcapitalB ohhh damn I must have plucked a heart string, didn’t think it was such a personal matter aha sorry for wasting a couple minutes of ur time that you will NEVER get back aha xx
