S-Works Tarmac SL9 | 2027

AED 63,000

FACT 12r Carbon Frame, Roval Rapide CLX III
Groupset Options: Shimano Di2 or SRAM AXS
Power Meter: Yes

SKU: N/A Categories: , , , Tags: , , , Brand: ,

The S-Works Tarmac SL9 is Specialized’s current flagship road race bike. The FACT 12r frame weighs 687g. As a result, a size 56 complete bike comes in at about 6.6 kg.  Specialized built the S-Works SL9 for Time to Finish, not brochure weight or aero in isolation. Because of that, the brand tested it on real race courses, real terrain, and real riders. For the full breakdown, check out the Tarmac SL9 specs and UAE order guide.

You can buy a complete bike with SRAM RED AXS or Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 from AED 63,000 at The Cycle Hub, an authorized Specialized dealer in the UAE and the wider GCC.  In addition, you can reserve a bike with an AED 5,000 Tarmac SL9 pre-order deposit. If you are unsure about your size you can book a pre fit in any of our Dubai stores.

 

S-Works Tarmac SL9 Price and UAE Availability

Complete S-Works Tarmac SL9 bikes cost AED 63,000. If you want a custom build, you can also order a frameset. Then lock size, colour, and groupset with the Tarmac SL9 pre-order deposit. We currently expect delivery in mid-September 2026, so ask the shop to confirm live stock. Likewise, riders can order through The Cycle Hub for genuine product, official warranty handling, and factory-backed service.

Weight, Frame and Geometry

The S-Works Tarmac SL9 uses a FACT 12r carbon frame and fork with a Ceramicspeed SLT headset. Specialized claims a 687 g frame. In practice, a complete size 56 weighs 6.6 kg. The bike ships with 700×30 Cotton TLR tyres. However, the frame clears up to 32 mm. Finally, you can order sizes 44cm to 61 cm, and each size is Rider-First Engineered.

Key aero features include the Speed Sniffer head tube (4 mm narrower), Flow Fork, dropped downtube, Win Fin, and S-Works Rapide Post. In addition, the wheels are Roval Rapide CLX III and the cockpit is the Roval Rapide integrated bar and stem where the cables stay hidden.

SRAM RED AXS vs Shimano Dura-Ace Di2

Both complete Tarmac SL9 builds use the same FACT 12r frame, Rapide CLX III wheels, and integrated cockpit. SRAM RED AXS includes a Quarq dual-sided power meter (50/37, 10-36). Alternatively, you can choose Shimano Dura-Ace Di2.  Both complete builds include a dual-sided power meter. Instead of a complete bike, you can also start from a frameset.

S-Works Tarmac SL9 vs Tarmac SL8.

When compared to the SL8, the SL9 remains remarkably light and agile while delivering an impressive 4-watt aerodynamic saving at 45 km/h, thanks to the refined shapes of the new fork, head tube, and seatpost.

The difference is immediate. The moment you step on the pedals, you’ll feel the SL9 respond with instant acceleration and effortless agility, while maintaining the legendary control, confidence, and comfort that the S-Works Tarmac is renowned for.
