SD Worx Protime’s Lorena Wiebes has a custom Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL8, honouring her lead in the points classification at the Tour de France Femmes.
So far, Wiebes has secured two stage wins at the Tour de France Femmes back-to-back on stages 3 and 4, where she pipped Dutch compatriot Marianne Vos on both occasions. She now leads the points classification with 208 points. Vos is in second place with 178.
Wiebes, who is European champion and won the points classification in the Giro d’Italia, has described 2025 as her “best season to date”, which a Tour de France jersey will only improve.
Chequered racing flag
While Wiebes had an S-Works Tarmac SL8 decked out in the European champion colours for Paris–Roubaix Femmes, her green bike for the Tour de France Femmes sticks with a pattern we’ve seen across Specialized bikes at the men’s and women’s Tours de France.
As with Kim Le Court’s yellow Tour de France Femmes bike and Florian Lipowitz’s men’s Tour bike, Wiebes’ green machine has a chequered pattern to represent the chequered flag used at races.
Part of Wiebes' best season to date was her win at Gent-Wevelgem in March. This was the 26-year-old’s 100th professional victory, which is marked on the S-Works Tarmac SL8’s top tube with a gold graphic.
SRAM and Roval components
Another difference between Wiebes' Paris-Roubaix Femmes and Tour de France Femmes bikes is the choice of groupset.
While Wiebes opted for a 1x drivetrain at the Hell of the North, her green bike is set up with a 2x SRAM Red groupset.
The flat and fast terrain of Paris–Roubaix justifies the use of a single chainring, but clearly Wiebes wants a wider range of gears for the hilly and mountainous terrain of the Tour de France Femmes.
You can also see that Wiebes has sprint shifters on the inside of her Roval cockpit, which will help with those critical gear changes at the sharp end of the racing.
Wiebes is also using special Time Xpro 10 pedals. These appear to have the same green touches as the ones Jonathan Milan had on his green Trek Madone SLR in the men’s race.
Wiebes is also running Roval’s new CLX wheels, which launched just before the men’s Tour de France.
Like Le Court, she is using Specialized Turbo Cotton TLR tyres. These tyres launched over a decade ago and are among the oldest tech used in the peloton.
