Why this bike wins here
Harrogate Circuit Reverse is hilly, with 17.7 m of climbing per kilometre, the kind of course where low weight usually counts for a little more than aerodynamics. The Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL9 is an all-round frame, the kind of frame that terrain favours. Disc or regular wheels is a close call: the Shimano DURA-ACE C99 + Disc is 1.5 s faster than the Princeton Wake 6560 White, but 0.52 kg heavier.
