Specialized Tarmac SL9 vs Wilier Filante SLR: 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 Specialized Tarmac SL9 is built as a race geometry frame, the Wilier Filante SLR as a race geometry frame. The Specialized Tarmac SL9 stack is slightly taller, about 6 mm, which is not enough to change the position by itself. Reach is nearly identical across matched sizes.
