Perfect Aerodynamic Balance: Mixed-Depth SLX 2.0 on Specialized Tarmac SL8
Deep wheels are fast—until crosswinds push your front wheel off line. That’s where running mixed rim depths changes the game entirely.
For this dream Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL8 build, we fitted a custom mixed-depth configuration of our SLX 2.0 carbon spoke wheels:
-
54mm Front: Slices through the air while maintaining predictable, effortless steering feedback in unpredictable crosswinds.
-
60mm Rear: Holds maximum rolling momentum and minimizes drag where airflow turbulence is heaviest.
Wrapped in fast-rolling Pirelli P ZERO tires and anchored by elite components like the THM Clavicula SE carbon crankset and CeramicSpeed OSPW, this setup gives the rider full aero performance on flat sprints and descents without sacrificing cornering confidence.
Hand-built with ultra-stiff carbon spokes and higher-grade carbon materials, the SLX 2.0 delivers world-tour speed directly to your ride—without corporate markups or bloated middleman margins.
