Features specialized roubaix expert 2024
Two decades ago Specialized created the Endurance road category proving that high ergonomics means high performance. Today, the new Roubaix SL8 with Future Shock 3.0 is lighter, faster and more comfortable than any road bike ever made, offering the rider unmatched confidence. The road can be hell, but pedaling a Roubaix is always like pedaling in heaven.
Comfort: The Future Shock 3.0 is the star of the show, more adjustable and durable than ever. Now, regardless of position on the bike, every rider experiences 20mm of smooth, stick-free travel between the stem and head tube. Future Shock helps keep your hands and handlebars steady for a smoother ride with more control to ride fast, safe and with confidence.
The lower seatpost clamp design exposes more seatpost for increased flex, but "more" is not simply better. The Pavé seatpost controls that flex for optimal vertical comfort. Together they create AfterShock technology, and when combined with the Roubaix's rigid rear triangle, they provide a smooth ride without loss of efficiency.
The Roubaix is the most comfortable road bike the Ride Science team has ever tested, reducing impacts to the handlebars and saddle in 53% compared to the closest competition. With Roubaix's Future Shock 3.0, the wheel moves quickly over the bump, while the rider's mass remains stable, maintaining momentum over rough terrain. Traditional forks flex rearward upon impact, causing a measurable loss of speed. It's a scientific fact, more comfortable is faster.
Capacity: The Roubaix pioneered the geometry of the endurance category, so you ride "ON" the bike, not "OVER" the bike to take pressure off your hands, arms and shoulders for confidence on any road, and is ready to take on a mountain descent at full speed. Couple!
With a tire capacity of up to 38c/40mm, this endurance road machine offers better traction than ever on rough roads and even light gravel. Thanks to their lightness and efficiency, Specialized tires offer extra volume and greater traction without compromising performance.
