The latest edition to the Specialized Road Race line up is the new lighter S-Works Tarmac SL3. Lifecycle have recently acquired this beast in frame-set form, so you can equip it with whatever takes your fancy; whether its the latest 11 speed campagnolo, Sram double tap shifters or the micro-adjustable electronic Shimano Di2. Out of all the bikes on the market this is going to be the machine that gets you off the front of the bunch… and to the cafe the fastest.

Through countless hours of design and research,  Specialized have devised new carbon layering techniques that allow them to shave 10% in weight off of the already ridiculously light SL2. If that's not enough for you, they have also increased torsional stiffness by an amazing 18%!
