Specialized: Tarmac Elite Apex
The Tarmac Elite features a new SL-2 frame that is stiffer and lighter than last year's. Geometry is identical to the Tour-winning Tarmac SL-3. The Elite utilizes SRAM's Apex group with an 11-28 cassette and 52/36 chainrings for a gear spread low enough for steep climbs and tall enough for tailwinds.
