I almost bought a 2013 full carbon Roubaix instead of the Hard Rock. I wanted one pretty bad, until I rode one. I mean 12k weave with gloss clearcoat, and red/white graphics, Beautiful to look at!! I wasn't impressed at all. It felt stiff yes, but really no lively feeling like almost every decent steel bike I've ridden. It was very close to the feeling of the Cad 3 R600 I still own in the garage in Houston. That was the bike I installed a carbon post on, to see if the ride would improve. What it produced was the worst possible scenario. Saddle buzz.,,,,BD
