I can without hesitation say the Roubaix is one fine bike. I love mine. Single best investment I've made in years. I keep thinking about what I'd choose if I were to ever replace the bike, and I keep coming full circle back to the Roubaix. The ride is as great as some of the reports you've problably seen on it. I've had it since it was new a little over a year ago now. I have just shy of 6,000 miles on the frame.
What info are you looking for?
Here's mine, upgraded just a bit
