Specialized and Canyon have both unveiled new, premium road bikes in recent weeks. The Tarmac SL8 made its first official appearance at the men’s World Championship road race in Glasgow. Canyon lifted the lid on the all-new Endurace CFR and updated Endurace CF SLX days later. In this edition of the BikeRadar podcast, Jack Luke is joined by Simon von Bromley and Jack Evans. They discuss Specialized’s claim that the Tarmac SL8 is faster than the Venge and weigh in on the ‘Speed Sniffer’ head tube. Jack Evans gives us a preview of his Endurace CFR review. Simon likens the endurance road bike’s top tube storage hatch to a Game Boy battery cover and bemoans its adjustable, integrated cockpit. https://www.bikeradar.com/reviews/bikes/road-bikes/specialized-s-works-tarmac-sl8-dura-ace-di2-review/ https://www.bikeradar.com/news/specialized-tarmac-sl8-launches/ https://www.bikeradar.com/news/2023-canyon-endurace/ https://www.bikeradar.com/reviews/bikes/road-bikes/canyon-endurace-cfr-etap-review/ Learn more about your ad choices.
