Roubaix SL8 Sport Apex Adult Road Bike

COMPLIANCE: Future Shock 3.0, more tunable and durable than ever, delivers 20mm of smooth, stiction-free travel between the stem and head tube. It keeps hands steady, providing a smoother, controlled ride for speed, safety, and confidence. The dropped clamp design exposes more seatpost for increased deflection, controlled by the Pavé seatpost for optimal vertical compliance. Together with the rigid rear triangle, they form AfterShock technology, offering a smooth ride without losing efficiency. The Roubaix SL8 reduces impacts at the bars and saddle by 53% compared to competitors, maintaining momentum on rough terrain for a faster, smoother ride.

CAPABILITY: Roubaix’s endurance geometry positions riders “IN” the bike, not “ON” it, easing pressure on hands, arms, and shoulders. It handles rough roads and light gravel with tire clearance up to 38c/40mm, offering better traction without sacrificing efficiency,thanks to lightweight Specialized tires. Ready for big adventures, it features three bottle mounts, top-tube mounts, and fender compatibility.

PERFORMANCE: The new Roubaix SL8 is the most aero yet, with streamlined shapes from the Free Foil library and dropped seat stays. Weighing just 950 grams, it incorporates insights from the world’s lightest production frame, the Aethos, and uses a Fact 10r carbon blend. Nothing in its class is faster or lighter.
