Anybody know what the weight differences are between the various Tarmac levels? I've seen the S-Works 12r weighed on here (852 in size 54), but going down to the 10r carbon, what is the weight gain? Is there a page with all the levels compared?

I have the Pro Disc 10r that I just stripped down to sell. 2020 version on size 56cm. I can weigh it for you a little bit later.

Awesome. I was looking at the Expert and Pro model, both 10r, and was curious what the difference was compared to the S-Works.

So the F/F/HS and DUB BB comes out at 1560g on my Park scale. That’s with the steerer cut with about 50mm exposed. Let me know if you have any questions.

Awesome, thanks. From my quick calculation, it looks like the 10r frame is around ~75g heavier than the 12r. That's estimating from the info I could find about the BB.

Thanks. My 58 Acid Mint disc was right around 990g, which from these weights would put it heavier than the Black color (makes sense). So for a 10r in size 58, I'd probably be looking at 1050-1075g.

My matt black SL6 Pro 56 (rim brake) was exactly 1000 g with bottle cage bolts, RD hanger and port covers for eTap installation in place.

Historically, it has been fair to assume a 12r Tarmac to be 100-200 g lighter than a 10r frame. 10r has been 80-150 g lighter than a 9r frame and for the SL6 it's more likely to be closer to 150 g, because the current 9r has more substantial structural differences than previous frame iterations.

Also, it seems that for the SL6, a disc brake frameset is some 20-40 g heavier than a rim brake frameset, with a considerable portion of that difference sitting in the fork.
