Festka Scalatore All Road vs Specialized Tarmac SL9: geometry and fit comparison
Matched sizes, stack and reach deltas, and a fit check against your own body instead of guessing from two separate size charts.
The Festka Scalatore All Road is built as a all-road geometry frame, the Specialized Tarmac SL9 as a race geometry frame. The Specialized Tarmac SL9 cockpit is slightly longer, by about 9 mm. Across matched sizes the Festka Scalatore All Road and Specialized Tarmac SL9 front ends are within a few millimetres of each other, so posture will depend more on cockpit setup than on the frame.
