Specialize boasts that it's as aerodynamic as the Tarmac as well which may ease some of your weight concerns if you have them. No matter what you pick - endurance bikes are sweet and your butt/back will be thanking you :-)
It is definitely a top consideration. I have owned two older S-Works Roubaix bikes. They were really nice and I bet the new one is just a league above.
