Thanks Oscar. Hopefully you can repost them after Tuesday? The stock photos help but don’t compare to seeing it built up in the flesh :+1:

If they could just do this for me (forgive my terrible photoshopping)…

Absolutely the bike shop just got a bunch of pics out in the sunlight. Basically did a small photo shoot for Tuesday. I will post those as well.

Looks like a Cannondale.

Yes, similar to the Supersix although they only seem to be black white beige colour schemes (at least where I am). But don’t all bikes look the same now anyway?! The Tarmac will be better too! - just wish Specialized would take the same approach to branding as Cannondale. Anyway, just a bit of harmless photoshopping…it’s not going to happen.

Tarmac SL7: One Bike to Rule Them All - YouTube Video premiering in 23hr, “One Bike to Rule Them All” seems to indicate the retiring of the Venge.

“One Bike to Rule Them All”? So its as compliant as the Roubaix :-o

(can’t wait for talking about the bike that doesn’t involve the color of the frame)

yeah, super interested in the weight of SWorks SRAM size 56.

But after tommorow release will we know the weight of specific models? Specialized doesn’t show that on the website.

Chances are good that the media outlets will reporting weights on at least the samples they have had (guess on my part), and potentially some info from Spesh as well.

Probably a mistake but I just received the German e-mail about the Sl7. Link in the mail links to the SL6, but they tell some info:

Weight 6.8 kg. If you want to have a lighter bike trade in your cycle license Is the statement
Same weight as the SL6, but 45 seconds faster on 40 kilometers compared to the SL6. More aero without the weight penalty
Built in combination with the Roval Rapid wheels and the Aerofly and integrated cables for optimal aerodynamics

wow, 45 seconds is a lot. Wonder what it is with same wheels and bars.

You should try changing the SL6 to sl7 in the address bar to see if it opens up. That would be cool if it works.

what frame size do they normally claim weight on?

56 I think

The same link is in description of premier video.

I think, I’m sorry if I’m wrong, when they talk about the weight of the frame it’s 56 size and sworks frame.

SL6 disc at 56cm I’ve often seen quoted as 6.6kg. Suppose it gets complicated by frame size and pedals on/off. Mind you, 200g is just a good fart :dash:
