The S-Works Rapide Post is a premium aerodynamic carbon seatpost engineered to reduce drag, improve airflow and maintain all-day ride comfort on high-performance road and gravel bikes. Designed using Specialized’s Moving Leg Mannequin testing, the Rapide Post targets one of the bike’s most important aero zones, where pedalling motion drives high-speed air directly onto the seatpost.

  • S-Works Rapide aerodynamic carbon seatpost
  • Designed to reduce drag where airflow is highest
  • Developed using Specialized Moving Leg Mannequin testing
  • D-shape design improves aerodynamic efficiency and comfort
  • Deeper profile with reduced frontal area for cleaner airflow
  • Refined FACT carbon lay-up balances durability and compliance
  • Lightweight carbon construction for high-performance road riding
  • Precision-engineered saddle hardware for quick and accurate adjustment
  • Fits Specialized Tarmac SL9, Crux 5 and Tarmac SL8

Its advanced D-shape profile combines a deeper aerodynamic form with reduced frontal area, helping create cleaner airflow and improved aero efficiency. The thinnest section ever used by Specialized in this zone further refines performance, making the S-Works Rapide Post an ideal upgrade for riders looking to optimise speed without sacrificing comfort.

Built from refined FACT carbon, the S-Works Rapide Post balances lightweight strength, durability and tuned compliance for a smoother ride over long distances. Precision-engineered saddle hardware allows fast, accurate and effortless adjustment, making it easy to dial in your perfect riding position.

Compatible with the Specialized Tarmac SL9, Crux 5 and Tarmac SL8, and available in multiple length and offset options, the S-Works Rapide Carbon Seatpost is a race-ready component designed for riders chasing aerodynamic performance, comfort and precise fit.
