Here we compare the Specialized Tarmac SL7 with the Specialized Venge and tell you about the differences on paper. The Tarmac SL7 is supposed to replace the Venge which is set to be discontinued as specialized prefers one bike for all courses.

The 2021 Specialized Tarmac SL7 is here and it marks the end of the great aero versus weight divide for the brand, with the new model replacing both the existing Tarmac SL6 and the more aero-focused Venge as the brand’s flagship race bike.

The new Tarmac SL7 is also disc-only, and the top-flight S-Works bike is claimed to weigh just 6.7kg in Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 spec.

It’s a fearsomely expensive, fearsomely effective speed machine that will delight go-fast riders with its ultra-stiff frame, sublime handling and engaging ride, but is it just too race-focussed for the more casual roadie?
