I am massively impressed with the new Tarmac. The sharpness in its responses is glorious, and the smoothness of the ride is exceptional, but the price of entry is high. For example, for the similarly priced Cannondale (£200 more) you get Shimano Dura-Ace and carbon wheels, and with the Trek you’d be paying £650 less and getting Bontrager carbon wheels.
4/5
