The Specialized Roubaix Comp Sagan Collection 2020 Road Bike is a limited edition version of the brand Roubaix which is lighter & faster than previous generation Specialized Roubaix bikes. When you consider that the old versions of the Roubaix notched up six wins at Paris-Roubaix, the new Roubaix is a bike with some serious ability. The Roubaix has always been built to be smooth but that has come with some compromises. But not anymore. The all-new Roubaix Comp now delivers compliance without compromise by introducing the new Future Shock 1.5 fork that gives you more control on rough road. At the back the new Pavé seatpost balances the bike out. The new Roubaix has aerodynamics that equal the Specialized Tarmac, & a Rider-First Engineered frame that’s shed some serious weight. Is it still comfortable? Sure, but the new Roubaix is a performance bike first that is capable of some serious speed on the biggest & longest rides you can imagine. The new Roubaix Comp is part of Specialized’s ‘beyond gender’ philosophy. There is no specific men’s & women’s version of the bike but the smaller sizes come with a saddle that suits most women & the larger frame sized come with a more male friendly saddle. The Roubaix Comp is very similar in spec to the Expert. The big difference is with the Future Shock. The Future Shock 2.0 fitted to the Roubaix Expert can be adjusted on the go but the Future Shock 1.5 cannot. You still get extra compliance & a smoother faster ride but it is not as tuneable. This version of the Roubaix Comp comes with standard mechanical Ultegra gearing rather than Di 2. This bike is perfect for The Roubaix Comp comes with Shimano Ultegra gearing & Ultegra hydraulic brakes. The Ultegra equipment is the choice of many experienced cyclists, offering near pro levels of performance without the eye watering price tag. This bike is perfect for riders wanting to do big miles on rough roads but who want to feel they are on a performance road bike, not a couch. The limited edition Sagan Collection bike ads a bit of extra flare to your ride. Key Features • The new Roubaix frame delivers compliance without compromise via the perfect balance of aerodynamics, light overall weight, compliance, & Rider-First Engineering. With tube shapes that were born in Specialized’s Free Foil Shape Library & validated in the Win Tunnel, the new Roubaix’s as aero as the Tarmac SL6. The frame has also shed some serious weight in the process & has room for 33mm tyres. • To go along with the new frame, Specialized have developed a totally-new S-Works Pavé seatpost. Not only is it the first compliant seatpost that’s ALSO aerodynamic, it does so without any additional weight or finicky contraptions. Starting with the same D-shape design found on the Tarmac, Specialized have built additional flex into the upper & developing a new drop-clamp design in the frame. This provides plenty of compliance, while staying perfectly balanced with the front-end, so you get a smooth, balanced ride no matter how rough the road. • With 20mm of rough-road-taming travel, the Future Shock 1.5 not only delivers a smoother, more comfortable ride, but it also reduces fatigue & increases speed over harsh terrain. The new Smooth Boot, meanwhile, enhances the aesthetics to bring a clean transition from the head tube to the stem
