    Hi, I wanna to buy Tarmac SL8 but i read in service manual one thing that scared me a little: page 5 in Tarmac SL8 service manual (section: „trade off”):„relatively short product life”, „you are choosing light weight (shorter frame life) over more frame weight and a longer frame life”, „you are choosing light weight over more dent resistant or rugged frames that weigh more”. What do You personally think about it? Maybe this applies only to s-works grade carbon, and fact 10r is safe option (only little heavier)??

    I bought both models in size 44 (EUR) and had the chance to compare them (off the bike) for a week until I returned the Wire 2. They were both in gray color (Shot 2 are lighter gray with gloss finish). Wire 2 felt at least half a size smaller and they felt much more rigid. Probably because their upper are made of a firmer material and/or because of their lacing system design. The sole felt stiffer with Wire 2 as well. Maybe because it was smaller, I don't know. Shot 2 has definitely more room for the toes but suffers a little bit heel slip. The upper feels much softer on the Shot 2 as well. They are easier to wear and feel more comfortable on the feet. But I would prefer them to be a little more rigid like Wire 2. Wire 2 in the same size were great at the heels but my toes felt uncomfortably tight. I had also tried "Wire 2 Carbon Air" model in a bike shop which has perforated and more flexible leather. It felt more comfortable than the regular Wire 2 (matte gray) but I had not compared them with these two models at home. I may go try them again. In conclusion I liked the Wire 2 better because of their stiffer feeling but it felt too tight on my toes. So I had to return them. I am not sure the stiffness feeling of Wire 2 is due to it being smaller but I wish it was a more roomy. I would love to try size 44.5 for the Wire 2 but local distributors carry half sizes only for the Shot 2 model. Maybe I'll try size 43.5 for Shot 2, but they would probably be too small for me.

    Ostro uses a proprietary design, frame material, their own factory etc. the SL8 is got Specialized’s design but is still essentially a Chinese factory build and a lot of marketing money. Once up to speed all the aero bikes will be faster than the SL8. Which is much more like a Willier Filante. A mild aero bike that great all around. My 2 cents.

    • @addictcyclist
      @addictcyclist 29 дней назад

      Thanks for feedback! From my experience owning a madone, system six, s5, ostro, and now sl8, the sl8 is the liveliest and damn near close to all the aero heavy hitters. The aero bikes are dogs to accelerate. Sl8 perceived feel over the ostro is that it’s more aero. Wind tunnels don’t lie, but out on the road with all varying conditions, it punches above its aero wind tunnel tests. Idk how they did it, but it’s pretty incredible. This is my first tarmac. I never bought into the S hype but this bike changed my mind completely.

    virtually no diff in stiffness between sworks vs pro sl8. 100gm light that is it. what your feeling is buyer bias. but the sworks for amzing paint and the logo. that is it. fyi the size of the bb does not determine stiffness it is mostly on the carbon layup.

      How do you know this? I've been trying to decide between sworks frame + normal wheels or normal frame + better wheels. The best source I've come across is an interview from specialized talking about using more 10r carbon pieces to meet 12r specs. But there has to be a physical limit on the shape and size for the 10r CF pieces to approximate the lay in the individual fibres of the 12r, the same way continous strand and short strand fibres work in fibre reinforced engineering plastics. For example, stacking a 0.2 mm thick 10r sheet on top of a 1 mm thick 10r sheet doesn't make it have the same stiffness as a 1 mm thick 12r sheet in all directions in a cycling situation with loads from the road coming everywhere.
