Specialized S-Works Roubaix SL8 Frameset

Beschreibung

Two decades ago, we created the endurance road category by proving that high ergonomics means high performance. Today, the new Roubaix SL8 with Future Shock 3.0 is lighter, faster and smoother than any road bike ever made, giving unparalleled confidence. The road may be hell downstairs, but on Roubaix it's always heaven upstairs.

COMPLIANCE: Future Shock 3.0 is the star of the show, more tunable, adjustable and more durable than ever. Regardless of position on the bike, every rider now experiences 20 mm of smooth, friction-free suspension travel between stem and head tube. Future Shock helps keep your hands and handlebars stable for a smoother ride with more control to stay fast, safe and confident.
Our lowered clamp design exposes more seatpost for more deflection, but "more" is not simply better. The Pavé seatpost controls that deflection for optimal vertical flexibility. Together, they create AfterShock technology and, combined with the Roubaix's stiff swingarm, they ensure a smooth ride without losing efficiency.
The Roubaix SL8 is the smoothest road bike our Ride Science Team has ever tested - 53% less shock at the handlebars and saddle than its nearest competitor. With Roubaix's Future Shock 3.0, the wheel moves quickly over the bump, while the rider's mass remains stable and maintains momentum in rough terrain. Typical forks deflect backwards on impact, causing a measurable loss of speed. It is 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 capacity and confidence on any road, yet it is ready to dissect a mountain at full throttle. Nice and snug.
With up to 40 mm of tyre clearance, this endurance road machine offers better traction than ever on rough roads and even light gravel. Thanks to the lightweight, super-efficient Specialized tyres, that extra tyre volume and traction has no drawbacks.
The Roubaix inspires really BIG days on the bike, so we've given it every attachment you need for your adventures - three bottle cages, top tube attachment points and it's even mudguard-ready. So go ahead and bring everything you need for the road.
PERFORMANCE: The new Roubaix SL8 is our most aero yet, with new aero shapes from our Free Foil library and lowered seat stays. At just 828g, the frame is 50g lighter, using lessons learned from the Aethos - the world's lightest production frame - and our premium Fact 12r carbon mix. Nothing in its class is faster or lighter than the Roubaix.
