Specialized Roubaix Expert - seven wins at Paris-Roubaix is an indisputable proof that Smoother is Faster! The smoothest performance bicycles on the planet deliver compliance without compromise by introducing a new Future Shock 2.0 that gives you more control and damping options, a new Pavé seat post that creates Spec's most balanced Roubaix to date, aerodynamics that equal the Tarmac, and a Rider-First Engineered™ frame that’s shed some serious weight. Is it still comfortable? Sure, but don’t call it a comfort bike, because the performance was behind every engineering decision the engineers made. This is the new Roubaix.

The new frame delivers compliance without compromise via the perfect balance of aerodynamics, light overall weight, compliance, and Rider-First Engineering™. With tube shapes that were born in Specialized FreeFoil Shape Library and validated in the Win Tunnel, the new Roubaix’s as aero as the Tarmac SL6. Meanwhile, to ensure the weight and ride quality, it is turned to a Rider-First Engineered™ design to deliver optimal stiffness and compliance across all sizes, from 44 to 64cm. Of course, the frame has shed some serious weight in the process. And to prep you for your own Hell of the North, they’ve made room for 33mm tires.

To go along with the new frame a totally-new S-Works Pavé seatpost was developed. Not only is it the first compliant seatpost that’s ALSO aerodynamic, but it also does so without any additional weight or finicky contraptions. Starting with the same D-shape design found on the Tarmac, the engineers took its compliance a step further by building additional flex into the upper and 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.

The Future Shock 2.0 is the result of Spec pro riders’ demands for the cobbles of Roubaix. It’s smoother, faster, and gives you more control via a knob atop the stem. This knob adjusts compression from fully-open to stiff, while hydraulically-damped internals control rebound. Add it up, and this latest version will reduce fatigue and increase your speed, no matter the terrain. The new Smooth Boot, top cap, and Future Stem also enhance the aesthetic, so you get a clean transition from head tube to stem.

For the build, the Expert is equipped with Shimano Ultegra Di2 for its powerful hydraulic disc brakes and super crisp 2x12-speed shifting. Of course, you’ll be rolling on sturdy wheels courtesy of a Roval C38 carbon rims and Specialized Turbo Pro 700x30mm tyres.
