Specialized Roubaix SL8 Sport 105 - S/52 , Gloss Champagne / Smoke, 2025

Twenty years ago, we created the road endurance bike category and proved that high ergonomics means high performance. Today, the new Roubaix SL8 with Future Shock 3.0 shock is lighter, faster and smoother than any road bike ever made, delivering unrivalled confidence. The road may be hell below you, but on a Roubaix bike it's always heaven above you. MATCH: The Future Shock 3.0 is the star of the show, it's adjustable, adjustable and more durable than ever. Now, regardless of position on the bike, every rider will experience 20mm of smooth, skid-free travel between the stem and head tube. Future Shock helps keep your hands and handlebars in a stable position for a smoother ride with more control to keep you fast, safe and confident. Our lowered sleeve design exposes more of the seat tube to increase sag, but "more" isn't simply better. The Pavé seatpost controls this deflection for optimal vertical compliance. Together, they create AfterShock technology and, in conjunction with the stiff Roubaix rear triangle, provide a smooth ride without sacrificing efficiency. The Roubaix SL8 is the smoothest road bike our Ride Science team has ever tested-reducing handlebar and seat shocks by 53% compared to the closest competition. Thanks to the Roubaix Future Shock 3.0 shock, the bike moves quickly over bumps while the rider's weight remains stable, maintaining momentum over rough terrain. Typical forks deflect backwards on impact, causing a measurable loss of speed. It's a scientific fact, smoother really is faster. FLEXIBILITY: Roubaix pioneered endurance geometry, so you ride "IN" the bike, not "ON" the bike, to reduce pressure on your hands, arms and shoulders for capability and confidence on any road, yet it's ready to shred mountain terrain at full throttle. Buckle up. With tyre clearance up to 40mm, this endurance road machine provides better traction than ever on rough roads and even light gravel. The Roubaix inspires you to have some really BIG days on the bike, so we've given it all the mounts your adventures might need - three bottle mounts, top tube frame mounts and it's even fender ready. So go ahead and take it all along for the ride. PERFORMANCE: The new Roubaix SL8 is our roomiest model yet, with new aerodynamic shapes from our Free Foil library and lowered seatstays. The frame weighs just 950 grams and is lighter thanks to the use of lessons learned from the Aethos - the world's lightest production frame - and the Fact 10r carbon blend.
