Tarmac Pro SL Compact SRAM components
Fork material
The fork is made out of carbon, so, its weight is considerably lighter than one made out of steel. However, they cost a bit more than steel forks.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Tarmac Pro SL Compact SRAM model has 700c aluminum wheels. These wheels are the most used kind for road bikes in general. However, while they give you great speed and control, these wheels are not so bump-friendly.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Specialized Tarmac Pro SL Compact SRAM is equipped with Rim brakes. Rim brakes are cheaper than hydraulic brakes, and also easier to maintain. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
Sizes
There are 6 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 155 cm – 191 cm (5.09 ft – 6.27 ft). In short, you can easily find one that suits you.
