The S-Works Roubaix frameset is the perfect start to your cobble-crushing dream build.
The S-Works Roubaix frameset is fully equipped with Future Shock, a CeramicSpeed bottom bracket, CG-R seatpost, and a full SWAT™ box. The frame is one of the lightest, and it's been constructed from top-tier FACT 11r carbon fibre. Its stiffness levels are also off the charts, and compared to the previous SL4 iteration, you'll experience a whole new, faster, and more efficient geometry. The same fit, feel, and position that we've all come to love from the SL4 have somehow been maintained, and kept consistent throughout the size-range due to a 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 that have been tested with Specialized's Rolling Efficiency Model, the new Roubaix outperforms anything on the market.
