Specialized Roubaix | First Look | Cycling Weekly

As we all get ready for the jewel of the Spring Classics, Paris-Roubaix, Specialized could not pick a better time to narrow its bike range further with the brand new 2019 Specialized Roubaix that is said to be faster than its current Tarmac and lighter than its current Venge. It promises to be more than just an endurance bike.. | Subscribe to Cycling Weekly here: www.youtube.co...

I have a 2018 Roubaix and absolutely love it. I like the evolution of the future shock so that you can lock it out for climbing or sprinting. The SW ETAP with power just became my dream bike !

[@DanielGonzalez-md6op]

Prices are crazy on road bikes nowdays... And even more on those tech bikes... No doubt about the quality, but come on... Those prices!

[@AndrzejZalewskiYT]

dont worry, in 2 years they will be 2ce cheaper and this shows real value of this tech

[@heytreacle]

Are you sponsored by LE BLOODY COL by any chance lads?

[@jorenbrook8433]

How did you find out?

[@simongilliat2205]

We lived 15 years in France, and did a lot of cycling. My son and I always thought the brand was called "Spes-i-all-i-zed." Haha..

[@fortheloveyoutube]

Bravo! Many thanks! Bicycle Haüs is ready for the all-new Roubaix!

[@JohnBatty]

Even more a dream bike... even more a dream at those prices.

[@berndkiltz]

The Perfect bike to replace my Cervelo S3 and my Diverge 2018. I can never decide between the 2, this would be the PERFECT Combi. I have to try it!

[@KoenMiseur]

Weird, on every other review they say the Roubaix is as fast as the Tarmac not faster or they are wrong (all of them) or you guys are wrong? Also why would they make the Roubaix faster than the Tarmac?

[@robbchastain3036]

We need a weekly Specialized lottery or something. And the winner could sing, I got a ticket to ride...

[@djjackjones1]

Looks great, I’m sure it rides great! Where’s the mounts for mudguards?! Someone forget this is for the European market?!

[@marioortega4481]

Still expensive as sh... even more with all the aero improvements. That been said, I still would love to afford the Pro Di2...

[@johntrussell6373]

Beautiful!

[@frederiksakham8134]

Broad tires are the answer. The rest is a waste of money

[@jezthomas4402]

It would be nice to hear about the competition for this bike; e.g. how does it compare to the Cervelo C2 or C3? I'm thinking more about the Roubaix Sport as I'm not really wealthy so could only afford that one. Thanks.

[@AndrzejZalewskiYT]

4:45 7kg for 52 sworks that's pictured in video, nice

[@santibergallo]

I got here a bit late, is it noticeable the comfort of this bike over a Tarmac? I love riding cobbles and would like to consider this for my future bike without hindering the road performance.

[@berndkiltz]

I have the Diverge with the old Future Shock. It is so good you wont believe it.

[@carlobalzer3238]

Beautiful bike How much is it got a specialised full carbon road bike roubaix 2014

[@markp353]

Hey boys 11r is not Specialized's top carbon, on the S-Works Tarmac they use FACT 12r according to their website. Interestingly Venge and Roubaix only get 11r. Be nice to ask the boys at Spec why 12r is not used considering the price you are paying for these machines. Even the Comp Roubaix is not cheap

[@jpanon1498]

Did you guys check with Specialized to find out if they fixed the safety issue with the Future Shock system that forced them to issue a recall for a lot of bikes?==>>Specialized has announced a voluntary safety recall for many of its bikes fitted with Future Shock."According to Specialized, the steerer tube collar on these Future Shock-equipped bikes is at risk of "stress corrosion cracking", which could lead to a sudden loss of steering control." www.bikeradar.com/us/road/news/article/specialized-recalls-future-shock-steerer-tube-collar-53446/

[@mathman0101]

Specialized will replace the part to address the safety issue. This new version is a very different set-up

[@kentao4]

If I wanted to upgrade my spring cartridge to a hydrolic, is it possible for the 2018 model?

[@garysmith70]

Mud guards???

[@JordanHMay]

How can you get the frame color way in your video thumbnail image?

[@ThisIZ2Funny]

Are their pedels that come with it

[@Skirata1000]

Disc only?

[@grecopena]

Is it easier on your lower back?

[@tmacbow889]

Venge seat post is not the same as Tarmac/Roubaix??

[@berndkiltz]

I think they made a mistake there. Venge Seatpost ist much bigger!

[@amatmulisha2978]

Sexy machine but that price 😪

[@taufikabidin412]

talking about aerodynamics but have their mouth locked on fairing and bents. a tech from 80 years ago.

[@katomiler843]

Pricing the bike in a way that only creates access via stupid amounts of debt is so AMERICAN. Way to go, Specialized and all the boot lickers who push their products.

[@MrNeurovegal]

Looks exactly like a Tarmac but a little bit uglier to me...

[@ErwinMeulman]

Blablabla

[@jacobkeatt9159]

really ugly. that head tube and seat cluster is a step backwards in aesthetics from the current tarmac and venge

[@cosbro5389]

well OVER PRICED

[@ThomasSmithTechArtist]

Yeah, no thanks

[@garagesale5948]

"Special"-ized bikes are over priced compared to the competition, not a good value

[@PiscesBanks]

Garage Sale what would you buy? I need a 64cm and they seem to have more large bikes of this frame size than anyone else.

[@sbsb4995]

Disc brakes really spoilt the good look of the bicycles. it truly is the biggest gimmick in the history of bicycles. it is really sad.

[@underzepump2905]

$17,000 (AUD)!?!? Hahahahahahaha. Who the hell would pay that?!

[@DrJRMCFC]

american bikes are so ugly, have a ridiculously unnecessary amount of proprietary stuff making them impossible to maintain in your shed and come with a load of rubbish about aero gains that even the pros aren’t going to get outside of a wind tunnel. Just look at the bike that won Flanders (admittedly american) but little aero, rim brakes... went home with the victory
