Specialized ROUBAIX EXPERT – The Ultimate Endurance Road Bike
With seven Paris-Roubaix victories, the Specialized Roubaix has proven that smoother is faster. Now, with the Roubaix Expert, smoothness comes without compromise. The Future Shock 2.0 system provides greater control and tunable damping, while the new Pavé seatpost ensures a perfectly balanced ride. Combined with aerodynamics rivaling the Tarmac and a lighter Rider-First Engineered™ frame, the Roubaix Expert is built for both speed and endurance.
This model is equipped with a Shimano Ultegra Di2 12-speed groupset, providing powerful hydraulic disc braking and ultra-precise shifting, while the Roval C38 carbon wheels ensure stability and efficiency on any road.
A Frame Built for Speed, Comfort & Control
The Roubaix Expert frame balances aerodynamics, lightweight construction, and compliance, offering:
FACT 10r carbon layup – Reduces weight while maintaining strength and responsiveness.
FreeFoil Shape Library aerodynamics – More aerodynamic than the Tarmac SL6.
Rider-First Engineered™ stiffness tuning – Optimized frame performance across all sizes (44cm to 64cm).
33mm tire clearance – Provides increased traction and shock absorption on rough roads.
Future Shock 2.0 – Tunable Comfort & Control
Developed for elite cobblestone races, the Future Shock 2.0 system delivers:
Adjustable compression via a dial atop the stem, allowing you to fine-tune the ride.
Hydraulically damped internals, controlling rebound and reducing fatigue over long distances.
Smooth Boot top cap & Future Stem, improving aesthetics and aerodynamics.
Pavé Seatpost – Compliance Without Compromise
The S-Works Pavé seatpost is the first aerodynamic, fully compliant seatpost, engineered for:
Enhanced flex in the upper section to absorb road vibrations.
D-shaped profile, borrowed from the Tarmac, ensuring lightweight efficiency.
New drop-clamp design, optimizing compliance and balancing front and rear suspension.
