Why this bike wins here

Watopia Mountain Route is mountainous, with 23.0 m of climbing per kilometre, the kind of course where low weight usually counts for clearly more than aerodynamics. The Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL9 is an all-round frame. Disc or regular wheels is a close call: the Princeton Wake 6560 White is 3.2 s faster than the Shimano DURA-ACE C99 + Disc here, and 0.52 kg lighter.

What the terrain rewards, from its climbing alone: aerodynamics against low weight
