For years, you had to choose between stiff & snappy, or compliant & comfortable for a race-bike—that is, until the new Roubaix. Featuring a completely Rider-First Engineered™ frame, our Future Shock technology, & a top-level build kit, the S-Works Roubaix with Shimano Dura-Ace Di 2 is right at home at a local fondo, a Saturday group ride, or a cobbled road race. The extremely light FACT 11r carbon fibre frame is what you get with the Roubaix 2018, giving you fantastic levels of stiffness while also featuring a new, faster & more efficient geometry. The Roubaix gives you a spec to excite, the incredibly smooth Shimano Dura-Ace Di 2 shifting, Shimano Dura-Ace Di 2 Hydraulic disc brakes & Roval CLX 32 Disc Carbon wheels. The Roubaix has a new feature which may come as a surprise to most, Front Suspension, Specialized Future Shock is a piston in the head tube which gives you 20mm of suspension, this suspension improves you ride smoothness, speed & also your ride comfort.

Developing the tried-&-tested tech of previous models, the 2020 Roubaix blurs the lines between stiff & snappy & compliant & comfortable even further. Taking its namesake from one of the toughest races on the cycling calender, the Roubaix was designed to take on anything from cobbled streets to poorly maintained roads thanks to its Future Shock tech & Pave seatpost. Super Light Carbon The S-Works Roubaix is constructed of FACT 11r Carbon with Rider First Engineered technology. FACT 11r Carbon is the finest carbon that Specialized produce, with the frame weighing in at less than 900g. The carbon frame strikes the perfect balance of compliance, aerodynamics & light weight. Previous models were light, yet Specialized have somehow shaved another 50g off the weight. The incredible stiffness of the frame gives you that extra edge on the sprints, whilst the Rider First Engineered design ensures that the stiffness remains at optimal level across the size range. Aerodynamics The Roubaixs tubes were created in Specializeds Free Foil Shape Library & put through their paces in their own Win Tunnel testing facility, the result being a bike as aero as the Tarmac SL6. The Pave seatpost provides the same compliance that Roubaixs are renowned for with added aero elements & no increase in weight. Give yourself the edge without sacraficing on comfort. Dura Ace Di 2 Adorning this quality carbon frame is Shimanos performance Dura Ace Di 2 groupset. Doubtless one of the best wireless groupsets that money can buy, youre guaranteed accurate, smooth & reliable shifting performance. It also boasts the intuitive Synchro & Semi-Synchro shifting modes that allows the entire drivetrain to be controlled via one button. Or for the traditionalists amongst you, manual mode is still available. The Dura Ace hydraulic disc brakes offer powerful stopping performance that is easy to modulate. Future Shock 2.0 Featuring the aforementioned Future Shock tech found on previous models, the Expert, Pro & S-Works models boast the 2.0 version. Retaining the 20mm of travel whilst enjoying 9 different settings of adjustment, the Future Shock means that you can fine tune your ride for comfort or performance. The stiffest setting is not a full lock-out, but it provides a stiff ride whilst still soaking up the biggest bumps. Topping off the quality spec is the Roval CLX 50 Carbon wheelset, blending aerodynamics & rigidity to achieve the highest performance. ...

Weve known for years that smoother is indeed faster, but until the S-Works Ruby with SRAM e Tap came along, we had no idea just how right we were. The frame is among the lightest that weve ever made, & its been constructed from our top-end FACT 11r carbon fiber. Its stiffness levels are also off the charts, & compared to the SL4 iteration of yesteryear, youll experience a whole new, faster, & more efficient geometry. Through some engineering sorcery, however, weve managed to keep the same fit, feel, & position that weve all come to love from the SL4s Womens Endurance Geometry. Of course, youre probably thinking, get on to the suspension thing up front. We call it Future Shock, & essentially, its a piston in the head tube with 20mm of travel. We developed this technology in partnership with McLaren Applied Technologies, & the result of this are a host of drastic performance improvements, namely in the vertical compliance department. Without giving a physics lecture, we found that focusing on vertical compliance, instead of fork splay, meant that we could improve smoothness, speed, & comfort in one fell swoop. & of all the bikes that weve tested with our Rolling Efficiency Model, the new Ruby outperforms anything on the market. Lastly, we specd it with awesome components, like SRAMs revolutionary e Tap shifting, hydraulic disc brakes, our new CLX 32 Disc wheels, & a whole host womens-specific comfort features. ...

The Shiv Disc sets the new standard for speed. Keeping its incredible aerodynamics, fuel systems & fit but in a whole new way. This is the bike to help you top the podium come race day. Disc brakes are now a huge advantage in time trialling, with variable weather conditions, tight twisty circuits & rough surfaces all adding extra

Dimensions to the racing. With superior stopping power you can brake later, meaning less total time on the brakes & faster times as a result. Disc brakes also create a more stable chassis in corners & extra stiffness when accelerating for better power transfer. All without creating any additional drag. Shiv Disc features both hydration & nutrition Fuelcell storage options re-designed from the beginning to be completely hidden within the frame (even the hydration hose) allowing for more capacity & better aerodynamics. The fit of the Shiv has been greatly enhanced with new re-designed geometry & front end of the bike. Without having to comply to UCI regulations, this bike needs not compromise to be the fastest it can be. Plenty of adjustability at the front end, fore aft & pad width as well as ease of adjusting stack with a single bolt on each side, so you can be as relaxed or aggressive as you wish. Another bonus of this level of adjustability is ease of travelling. Simply fold the base bar down to the fork & unbolt the cockpit & your Shiv is ready for the bike box. The Shiv Disc comes with a Shimano Dura Ace Di 2 groupset for crisp & perfect shifting every time, & Roval CLX 64 carbon wheels to keep you rolling fast no matter the terrain.
