Today, the new Roubaix SL8 with Future Shock 3.0 is lighter, faster, and smoother than any road bike ever made, unleashing unmatched confidence. The road may be hell below, but on Roubaix, it’s always heaven above.COMPLIANCE: Future Shock 3.0 is the star of the show, more tunable, adjustable, and durable than ever. Now, regardless of position on the bike, every rider experiences 20mm of smooth, stiction-free travel between the stem and head tube. Future Shock helps keep your hands and bars steady for a smoother ride with more control to stay fast, safe, and confident.Our dropped clamp design exposes more seatpost to increase deflection, but “more” isn’t simply better. The Pavé seatpost controls that deflection for the optimal vertical compliance. Together they create AfterShock technology, and when paired with the Roubaix’s rigid rear triangle, deliver a smooth ride with no loss in efficiency.The Roubaix SL8 is the smoothest road bike our Ride Science Team has ever tested—reducing impacts at the bars and saddle by 53% vs. the nearest competition. With Roubaix’s Future Shock 3.0 the wheel quickly moves over the bump, while rider mass remains stable, maintaining momentum in rough terrain. Typical forks deflect backward on impact, causing a measurable loss in speed. It’s a scientific fact, smoother is indeed faster.CAPABILITY: The Roubaix pioneered endurance geometry, so you ride “IN” the bike, not “ON” the bike to relieve pressure on your hands, arms, and shoulders for capability and confidence on any road, yet it’s ready to dissect a mountain decent at full gas. Snuggle up.With tire clearance up to 40mm, this endurance road machine delivers better traction than ever on rough roads and even light gravel. Thanks to lightweight, super-efficient Specialized tires, that extra tire volume and traction comes with no downsides.Roubaix inspires really BIG days on the bike, so we’ve given it every mount your adventures could need—three bottle mounts, top-tube mounts, and it’s even fender-ready. So, go ahead and bring it all along for the ride.PERFORMANCE: The new Roubaix SL8 is our most aero yet, with new aero shapes from our Free Foil library and dropped seat stays. At just 950 grams, the frame is lighter, utilizing lessons learned from the Aethos - the world’s lightest production frame - and Fact 10r carbon blend. Nothing in its class is faster or lighter than the Roubaix.Technical SpecificationsFramesetFrameFACT 10R, Rider First Engineered™ (RFE), FreeFoil Shape Library tubes, threaded BB, 12x142mm thru-axle, flat-mount discCockpitTapeSupacaz Super Sticky KushStemFuture Stem ProHandlebarsSpecialized Hover Expert, Alloy, 125mm Drop, 75mm Reach w/Di2 HoleSaddleBody Geometry Power ExpertSeatPostS-Works Pave Seat postSeat BinderHidden drop clampSuspensionForkFuture Shock 3.2 w/ Smooth Boot, FACT Carbon 12x100mm, thru-axle, flat-mount discBrakesFront BrakeSRAM Rival Hydraulic DiscRear BrakeSRAM Rival eTAP AXS, hydraulic discDrivetrainShift LeversSRAM Rival eTAP AXS, 12-speedFront DerailleurSRAM Rival eTAP AXS, 12-speedRear DerailleurSRAM Rival eTAP AXS, 12-speedCassetteSRAM XG 1250, 10-36TChainSRAM Rival, 12-SpeedCranksetSRAM Rival AXS w/Power, 12-speedChainrings46/33TBottom BracketSRAM DUB BSAWheels & TiresFront WheelRoval Terra C, 25mm inner width carbon rim, 32mm depth, NEW DT 370 hub, 24h, DT Swiss Comp Race spokesRear WheelRoval Terra C, 25mm inner width carbon rim, 32mm depth, NEW DT 370 Star Ratchet hub, 24h, DT Swiss Comp Race spokesFront TireS-Works Mondo 2BR, 700x32cRear TireS-Works Mondo 2BR, 700x32cInner Tubes700x28/38mm, 48mm Presta valveProduct DetailsProduct ID221821WeightWeight8.62kg (19 lb, .1 oz)Weight Size56
