Ex-Demo: 2018 Specialized Roubaix Comp Road Bike - Chameleon - 54cm

With a super-light frame and stiffness which is off the charts, you will find confidence with the Roubaix Comp whether you're rolling the cobbles or striding tarmac.

When you're rolling smoother you're rolling faster. And regardless of whether you're on the cobbles of Northern France or the chip and seal of your hometown you'll benefit immensely from the Roubaix Comp.

The super-light frame has been constructed from FACT 10r carbon fibre. Its stiffness levels are also off the charts and compared to the SL4 iteration of yesteryear you'll experience a whole new faster and more efficient geometry. Through some engineering sorcery however the same fit, feel and position that we've all come to love from the SL4 have been maintained and it has been kept consistent throughout the size-range due to the Rider-First Engineered construction.

The Future Shock suspension is essentially a piston in the head tube with 20mm of travel. This technology was developed in partnership with McLaren Applied Technologies and the result of this are a host of drastic performance improvements namely in the vertical compliance department. Focusing on vertical compliance instead of fork splay meant improved smoothness, speed and comfort in one fell swoop. Of all the bikes tested with the Rolling Efficiency Model, the new Roubaix outperforms anything on the market.

Lastly it is spec'd 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 Turbo Pro 28mm tyres.

• Featuring a Rider-First Engineered™ design that ensures every frame size has the same legendary responsiveness and smooth ride quality that you'd expect from a Roubaix. The FACT 10r frameset holds its own with high-end carbon offerings, with the ideal blend of light overall weight and targeted stiffness, while the all-new Future Shock "suspension" system at the cockpit delivers a revolutionary degree of comfort and control.
• A Roubaix Disc fork is built from FACT carbon fibre for supreme stiffness, strength, and reactivity, while a thru-axle design only stands to bolster all of the above.
• The Roval SLX 24 Disc wheelset features a sub-1600-gram weight, a 20-millimeter internal width, and an alloy construction that makes it a solid performer for any 'cross event.
