Anyone happen to have (or have seen in person) the Gloss Carbon/Oil Tint/Forest Green colorway? > **[Tarmac SL7 Expert | Specialized.com](https://www.specialized.com/us/en/tarmac-sl7-expert/p/199467?color=335321-199467&searchText=90622-3352&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIze-0kL_mgAMV1QbnCh31Gwf7EAQYASABEgKXHPD_BwE)** > > The new Tarmac is designed to go fast, there’s no if’s, and’s, or but’s about that—but it represents so much more than just aerodynamic prowess. With a light-weight, Rider-First Engineered™ frame, it delivers the best-possible ride characteristics,... I’m wondering what it actually looks like in person (guessing it depends on the sunlight/reflection). On the website it almost looks like a blue-ish night sky ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/3X/d/8/d8744e150d3dbf243d69cc5718c077ad54b09257.jpeg) In other shots it looks almost black and you can’t make out the logos: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/3X/b/2/b2865fdb3e22e9f5f2bd99c77d16353e43da2223.jpeg) And others it looks more like a glossy dark-forest green: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/3X/2/1/21bebd9672dea62fa31aa825f928a7be2536b807.jpeg) ---

Hopped on the new Cannondale SuperSix EVO bandwagon, was all great and fun until I couldn’t get parts for it to adjust my fit. Put it up for sale now and got myself an SL7. Bought as complete bike with 105 Di2, will sell off the parts and the Cannondale frame. You can immediately notice that the tolerances on the SL7 is way better, especially for the seat post. Also no issues to get parts, different stems etc. Haven’t cut the steerer yet, and waiting on my new saddle (Power with Mirror 130mm). Running a 110mm stem now, with 36cm Pro Pursuit Alu handlebars (101mm reach). ![DSCF6608](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/3X/f/9/f91edeea69c77904d2de7e3a08efc9c88e900be9.jpeg) ![DSCF6609](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/3X/f/f/ffdd29b17d00451ec4dbba4c9b8679d1600f965d.jpeg) ![IMG_4151](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/3X/2/f/2f7920c27091078e7d712ae7c61fface85457e80.jpeg) ---

Does anyone have a photo of their bike with the -12 degree stem? Big plus if its 110-120mm 🙂 Thanks! ---

Little late but I’ve got this colorway and those photos pretty much nail the different colors this bike looks depending on light. In low light it almost looks blacked out. But when light hits it the color shifts between a forest green and purplish-blue. It’s a gorgeous paint job when looking at it up close outdoors. In low light or from far away it could be mistaken for a black bike. Overall I like it a lot. ---
