Tarmac Sl7

Tarmac Sl7

2025 Tarmac SL7 Comp with the following upgrades:

- Zipp 303s wheels

- 30mm Continental GP5000 S TR tires (tubeless setup) with tan walls

- 110mm stem

- Zipp SL80 Race handlebar (not officially compatible with Shimano Di2 105, but it works just fine)

- Favero Assioma Duo pedals

- Shimano CL900 disc brake rotors (upgraded mostly for the looks, but I noticed improved braking performance compared to the rotors that came with the bike)

- Selle Italia SLR Boost TM saddle

I love riding this bike. I was new to road cycling when I bought it 11 months ago, and I just completed my first century last weekend in 6h last weekend (solo, with 4800 ft elevation).

Replacing Diverge E5 2022 fork

Hi!
I rocked my shit the other day in a very odd accident

My mechanic told me the fork i need measures 28.6mm in the top and 35mm at the base, but the 35mm measure seems very weird to me since all the parts ive seen on ali express are 28.6mm at the top and 39mm at the bottom

The point is, can i use any fork that is tappered and has the correct internal cable routing?

Has someone replaced their fork on their diverge? I have the one that has shimano claris 2x8.

Regards!

If I buy a brand new set of roval rapide c38 wheels from a website online, do I still get the warranty? Or do I have to buy direct from specialized?

They are out of stock on the specialied website. Curious if I order off a site like thebikezone.com if the lifetime warranty and crash replacement still would apply?

Tan vs black sidewalls

Just upgraded from the stock 45mm pathfinders to the new 2.2, in which I also chose to go with black sidewalls. IMO, it changed the overall look of the bike for the better. It looks more aggressive and bit ”cleaner”. It was a bit too much going on with the tan color meeting the blue, silver, and black colors.

Specialized Crux Expert

Enjoying a morning ride before this SoCal heat kills me. The Crux Expert continues to be such a joy to ride. Fast, comfortable, and just makes me want to keep putting miles on it.

Tarmac sl9 Frame

Just a quick question for people who know stuff like this: can I buy a non sworks tarmac frameset for a build? Or do I have to buy the expert spec and swap everything out?

Specialized Diverge 3

Just picked up my new Diverge 3 and am super stoked on how light, quick, and comfortable it is. I will primarily be riding city streets with it, and it seems more than up to the task for that job.

Help me find out the year/history of my stumpjumper

I bought this used Specialized stumpjumper in 2020. It was advertised as a 2020 Expert 29. But based off my research Stumpjumpers didn't come in this color scheme in 2020 or 2019.
