Ensuring that your new Tarmac is properly fit to you is an important step in preparing for your first ride.  Your Authorized Specialized Retailer will be able to provide a basic fit, ensuring that you are able to ride your Tarmac comfortably and efficiently. Specialized also offers Retül Fit, a data-driven bicycle fitting tool designed to improve comfort, prevent injury, and increase performance.

Cockpit

Expert and Pro models: SL7 stem 

S-Works models: Roval Rapide cockpit

The SL7 stem and Roval Rapide cockpit have a maximum spacer/transition stack of 1x lower transition space, 3 x 10 mm spacers, 1 x 5 mm spacer, and 1 x upper transition spacer.

Saddle Height

To adjust the saddle height, begin by moving the seatpost wedge cover up the seatpost to expose the seatpost wedge bolt.  Loosen the seatpost wedge bolt and adjust the saddle height as needed.  Ensure that the seatpost insertion is within the range shown below.  Damage to frame and seatpost may occur if the seatpost insertion exceeds the value listed.  Torque the seatpost wedge bolt to 6.2Nm (55 in-lbf) and slide the seatpost wedge cover back onto the frame.
