Somewhat basic question: I'm looking at the head tube length on the Roubaix (54cm). The head tube length is 165mm, but the specs also state "20mm cone spacer and 20mm spacers". Just to be clear, the 165 doesn't include those right? So that's 205mm total height if I don't get rid of some of that spacer stack?

Trying to do the math on stack and reach for the Tarmac/Roubaix to see what sort of bar drop I'd have.

Wonder why they quit putting 105 on the Allez Models?

I ordered this frame on Monday night.

Roubaix 2011 008..jpg!! NICE..ive been eyeing the specilized website for a while now..

2 days ago i got a 2011 Roubaix Elite...and let me tell you this machine is amazing!! super comfortable, acceleration is incredible, my good friend had to eat my dust last night.

Its very intersting the dramatic difference between the big plate and the smaller one.

the cassette is amazing, super low and SUPER HIGH. Havn't gone to a mountain but i tried using the 32 and the the 34 (front) and it was way to light! the i went down that same hill and put it on the toughest gear, it sped me down that hill like a rocket, i was torquing it and felt like it had a lot more to give me in speed.....so this was plesant and strange because i know this is by far the biggest cassette "oficially"marketed on a road group.

plus the bike just turns heads all over! its so so sexy.

My prayers have been answered. I've been frustrated that there aren't any name brand aluminum framesets out there forba good price. I'm having one of those.
