The super-light frame has been constructed from our FACT 10r carbon fiber. The frame is the lightest that we've ever made, and it's been constructed from our FACT 10r carbon fiber. It's good looking, dependable and has the sort of component list that will stand the test of time. It should also be noted that Specialized are offering the Roubaix Comp in an impressive range of sizes, from 44cm all the way through to a 64cm frame.The Future Shock 1.5 provides 20mm of movement aimed at dissipating road shock.Armchair comfort. And regardless of if you're on the cobbles of Northern France or the chip and seal of your hometown, you'll benefit immensely from the Roubaix Comp.Lastly, we spec'd it with awesome components, like Ultegra 8000 11-speed mechanical shifting, 8020 hydraulic disc brakes, and ultra-tough Roval SLX 24 wheels that have been cased in our Turbo Pro 28mm tires.Of course, you're probably thinking, "get on to the suspension thing up front." The same can be said for the longer chainstays for increased stability, although interestingly even though the wheelbase increases by a corresponding 5mm on the 56cm tested, bigger sizes see the wheelbase increase by much larger amounts.The head tube length is actually shorter on the Roubaix when compared directly to the Tarmac but this leads neatly on to the Roubaix’s USP, the Future Shock.
Climbing on the Roubaix is dealt with without fuss.
This should hopefully eliminate the inevitable creaks associated with the alternative press-fit BB’s.The Future Shock is an impressive addition and really does help to take the sting out of the roads. This clever unit sits underneath the stem and extends down into the frame and fork and provides up to 20mm of suspension movement at the stem and handlebar. The Power Sport saddle and carbon Pave post provide excellent cushioning. After lowering the Future Shock and running it with the lower cover the Roubaix felt much more engaging and I was able to really push on descents without the feeling the bike was going to understeer around corners.Road buzz is killed even more by the frame design.Rider First Engineering means this 56cm should provide the same ride feel as a44cm or even 64cm size.Loving the sparkly paint job on the Roubaix Comp.The Roubaix Comp shares an identical frame design as all other bikes in the range, the main differentiator being the grade of carbon fibre used in the construction and the suspension system used in the fork.
This approach tailors tubing profiles and lengths as well as tuning stiffness and compliance characteristics dependent upon frame size. It’s also a simple procedure to swap springs so anyone can do it at home. It’s not a unique approach, other brands follow a similar system but what it does ensure is no matter your frame size, frame performance should be optimal for you.
